18. Surah Al-Kahf, Verse 60

And Moses said to his youth: "I will not stop until I reach the junction of the two seas, or I spend a lifetime trying. "

(The Divine Revelation shows the Way and the outcome with conviction. When Moses was a young man, not yet commissioned as a Prophet, he was constantly in search of Truth (93:7). All Prophets were chosen by birth but assigned their mission at a later date. The young Moses knew that the human intellect was the source of conceptual knowledge whereas the Divine Revelation is the extrinsic knowledge from beyond human faculties.) And so, in the course of his quest for knowledge Moses said to his young friend, "I shall not give up until I reach the junction of the two streams, though I march on for ages in my quest." (INTELLECT AND REVELATION -- the two streams of knowledge).

And when Moses said to his servant: “I will not cease until I reach the confluence of the two seas, though I continue for an age,”
