00:30I knew it was the Taj Mahal
00:32You're right, Marjan.
00:33Is this Taj Mahal a restaurant?
00:37Do you think only of food? It is a grave.
00:40Are we going to travel all this distance?
00:43And we endure all this trouble on top of the elephant?
00:47In order to see a grave?
00:50It is not an ordinary grave.
00:52It's like a beautiful palace filled with gardens and fountains.
00:57Does death feel the beauty that surrounds them?
01:02This tomb or shrine has a strange story.
01:05It was built by King Shajahan for his beloved wife, Mumtaz Ma'al.
01:10He placed in it everything the deceased wife loved and liked.
01:16Look at this man
01:18How can he sleep on top of the gray daggers?
01:22I don't know, but a large number of lazy magicians do that to you.
01:30He does not feel pain if he sleeps on a regular mattress.
01:34There's nothing new to see on the road.
01:37You're right, I'm starting to get bored.
01:41O master of the sea, why don't you tell us the story of the Samaritan with the Children of Israel?
01:46Okay, where did we leave off?
01:49When the Samaritan took a handful of dust from the footprint of the great angel Gabriel and hid it in his clothes
01:57Yes, then the Samaritan returned and rejoined his companions from the people of our master Moses, peace be upon him.
02:11Where were you, Samaritan?
02:14We were worried about you?
02:16I'm fine, it's over.
02:18Did the soldiers behind us drown?
02:21Yes, everyone drowned.
02:23Pharaoh, Haman, and their soldiers
02:25Praise be to God, the Lord of Moses and Aaron
02:28The savior and He guided us to the path of truth
02:32Hurry, men, let's reach the Sinai desert
02:43Stop walking; the Prophet Moses ordered them to rest here.
02:48Great choice, the place is safe here, the mountain protects us from the wind and diving, and there are no wolves or predators.
02:58This place seems populated.
03:01If only we could find people to host us, and spend the night in their tents, instead of sleeping in the open
03:09Look, there's a fire at the bottom of a mountain; someone must have started it.
03:23Let's go and investigate.
03:26Wouldn't it be more accurate to ask the Prophet Moses first?
03:31What should we ask him about? We will find out the source of the fire and tell him about the two signs.
03:35The Samaritan is right; God's prophet would not be angry at such a thing.
03:51Look, they are worshipping a ladder.
03:54Yes, their god is clear before his eyes
03:58If only we had gods like them
04:01Yes, gods we see and touch with our hands, and whose existence we can confirm.
04:06We will ask the Prophet Moses to allow us to worship this God.
04:10Or He will make for us other gods
04:13He will never agree to this nonsense.
04:16Have you forgotten what he said about God, the One and Only?
04:19He who saved you from Pharaoh and his soldiers
04:22The sea was parted for your sake.
04:25But, Father, we long to worship the idol as we used to.
04:30What do you think, Samaritan?
04:31I listen to everyone's opinions and weigh the words in my mind.
04:35And then I will tell you my opinion
04:54Ah, I'm so tired
04:58Tired and thirsty
05:02I also feel thirsty and hungry
05:06But unfortunately, I finished all the water and food I had with me.
05:11Me too
05:14We ask Halim
05:15Good morning, Mr. Halim
05:19Good morning, guys
05:20Does anyone have any water or food?
05:24Why are you looking at me like that?
05:27Because we were going to ask you the same question
05:30The Samaritan is carrying a large bag full of belongings.
05:34He certainly has something to prove his need
05:37I have nothing and I'm starving
05:48For a dose of water
05:50Instead, I will give you three gold necklaces inlaid with jewels.
05:55And I get a sip of water
05:57You don't appreciate the situation.
06:00The water I have is all I have left.
06:04You must pay what you are worth.
06:08You are a hideous idiot
06:10This is how you deprive yourself of water
06:13Even if you paid me all the money in the world
06:16Don't control us, Esther, and don't forget.
06:19This gold is not yours.
06:21It is the gold of the Egyptians that we did not find the time to return.
06:24It is not ours.
06:26But it is in our possession
06:28This does not give us the right to dispose of it.
06:31Shut up, Baqrama
06:33This is not a matter for men.
06:36Do you hear what your wife is saying, Halim?
06:39She's right
06:40You are a nosy person
06:42O people, fight over gold afterward
06:47Leave me a sip of water.
06:49I am on the verge of perishing
06:52When the Prophet Moses feared for his people from discord and destruction
06:57He prayed to his Lord
06:59So God inspired me to strike the ground with my staff.
07:03Twelve springs burst forth from it
07:06Each tribe knew a way to the water.
07:11Praise be to God, the noble Prophet solved the water problem for us.
07:19We will not go back to fighting.
07:22And I will keep the precious gold necklaces
07:25Aren't you ashamed of what you did?
07:28You steal gold and then claim it for yourself?
07:32I am not a thief; this gold was with me when I fled from Pharaoh's tyranny.
07:37Now that Pharaoh is dead, how will we return the gold to its rightful owners?
07:42I suggest that this gold be divided equally among all of us.
07:46Gold is an adornment for women, why do you take it?
07:50Be silent, we will take our case to the Prophet Moses.
07:54Prophet of God?
07:56So the gold was lost.
08:05The Prophet's orders are clear: we will collect the gold and bury it before strife breaks out among the people.
08:13This is better, what use is gold in that desert?
08:17Isn't it a shame to waste all this gold?
08:20Quelling the strife, O Samaritan, is more important than preserving unnecessary decorations.
08:26I am not opposing the Prophet's commands, I was simply wondering.
08:30Come on, women, gather the gold and put it in one pile
08:41Wait, I have a dagger with a gold handle.
08:50It pains me to be excessive in my adornment, but what can I do?
09:00Keep digging
09:02Why? Is it torture?
09:06For God's sake, man, will the sun's heat kill us?
09:10I believe this depth is sufficient to conceal all the gold.
09:13But I fear the hole might be too small, and one of us might think of digging it again and extracting the treasure.
09:21Who is that madman who would dare to anger the Prophet Moses?
09:27You're right, and we bury gold out of conviction and faith, and our conscience is our guide, Halim.
09:35Okay, this hole is enough. Bring the gold; no one but me will throw it in the hole.
09:43May God strengthen your faith
09:47Go away, you cursed metal, you who play with the minds of women and seduce tyrants and oppressors. You will never triumph over the will for good within us.
10:01I will cry from the intensity of the emotion.
10:04Was it necessary for Moses to leave at this time and go up the mountain?
10:11You fool, he is going to his Lord's appointed time, and that is far more important than our trivial affairs.
10:19What should we do if we need to ask him about something?
10:22He left his brother Aaron, who was his minister and a prophet like him, and who knew all the teachings of the religion.
10:31Samri, where are you? I haven't seen you in a long time.
10:35What do you want, Reem?
10:37Is this how you address me? I wanted to check on you, especially since you weren't there to bid farewell to the Prophet of God as he ascended the mountain.
10:46Did he climb the mountain? Why?
10:49Don't you know? He went to his Lord's appointed time.
10:52This means that Moses is not among us now.
10:56Yes, but if you need anything, you can consult his brother Aaron.
11:01I don't need to consult anyone
11:11Who? The Samaritan? Are you still awake?
11:16I'm asleep, you should sleep too.
11:19How can you talk to me while you're asleep? Where are you going?
11:24I'm going to breathe some fresh air
11:27No, Samri, you're lying to me. Going for a walk isn't your intention.
11:34So what is my intention then?
11:36You are worried about the Prophet Moses, because he stayed in the mountain for more than thirty nights.
11:44Yes, yes, that's it. Tell me, Micah, where's the axe?
11:51Next to the tents
11:52music
11:55music
11:57music
11:59music
12:00music
12:41Now it is the turn of the blessed handful from the relic of the generous king
12:48I will create something unlike anything else in the entire world.
13:24Samri, where were you?
13:27I was looking for you, where are you going?
13:32To the sea we will try to catch some fish to eat
13:38Great, but aren't you worried about the Prophet Moses?
13:44He was already late, but he is with his Lord.
13:47I doubt that
13:50If he had met his Lord, he wouldn't have been gone all that time.
13:54I fear he might get lost among the mountains.
13:56Or something bad will happen to him?
13:59Don't worry about him.
14:01He is the Prophet of God
14:03Furthermore, he is physically strong.
14:06Great Wisdom
14:08No highwayman or predator can harm him.
14:12But that doesn't stop us from asking about it.
14:15Even at the very beginning of the mountain
14:17The Samaritan is right
14:20This is our duty
14:22Look
14:23What is this?
14:25I heard a sound like a calf lowing
14:29The calf is there at the mountain
14:32Be respectful when you speak about God.
14:35And prostrate yourselves before him
14:39Look, Martha
14:40It spreads light
14:42And also
14:44Finally, we have a God we can hear and see.
14:48But God is one and only
14:50It does not materialize
14:52And his messenger Moses went to him
14:55Moses went in search of his Lord
14:59While the Lord is here among us
15:01How beautiful
15:02Be humble before your Lord and stand prostrating before Him.
15:06Are you the Lord of Moses and Aaron?
15:10Answer me, golden statue
15:12Why doesn't he speak?
15:14Ask God for forgiveness, man, and behave yourself.
15:24In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful
15:29Then he brought out for them a calf, a mere body that lowed.
15:33They said, "This is your god."
15:36And the God of Moses, he forgot
15:38Do they not see that no word will be returned to them?
15:43He has no power to harm or benefit them.
15:46God Almighty has spoken the truth.
15:56How could the Israelites believe in the calf?
16:00After all the miracles they witnessed
16:02The miracle of the parting of the sea is enough
16:05And their deliverance from the unjust people
16:07Is this beyond?
16:10Do they worship a calf?
16:11Paganism was in their minds and hearts
16:15In ancient Egypt there was a god called Apis
16:19In the form of a partridge
16:22The Samaritans exploited their weakness.
16:25Their attachment to pagan customs
16:28And he made that statue for them.
16:31so?
16:33Humans usually think according to what they believe.
16:37Look at the Taj Mahal
16:39King Shah Jahan
16:41It is believed that the dead are aware of their surroundings.
16:44He created all this beauty
16:47So that his wife could feel it while she was dead
16:50Look at the place now
16:53And tomorrow, God willing, I will complete the story of the Samaritan for you.
