00:24What happened to you? Did you go mad? Where did the sticks go?
00:30Here it is
00:34The stick for those who disobey?
00:38I know you are afraid of it, but it is what guides you on the right path and corrects your course.
00:46Without it, you would be lost, each of you would follow your own desires and go against the others.
00:55The stick is necessary for the shepherd and for the care.
00:59Our master Moses, peace be upon him, could not do without his staff.
01:05He saw in it signs of God's power
01:08Shall I tell you the story of Moses' staff?
01:16Musa
01:22Why does the garden wear the color green?
01:25And when autumn comes, will it be stripped of its leaves?
01:29Actually, I don't know
01:32Why does the desert burn with thirst?
01:36Is sleigh formed on mountain peaks?
01:39Actually, I don't know.
01:41Why is the sun associated with the color of fire?
01:44Then at sunset it turns the color of people's blood?
01:49What are these strange questions?
01:51Are you supposed to be part of nature?
01:54Why tire yourself out with contemplation and thinking?
01:58Listen to me carefully, young sapling
02:01For us in the plant world
02:03We avoid revealing the secrets that are disclosed to us.
02:07I got hurt
02:08There are humans coming
02:11I don't understand why they spend all this money.
02:15To celebrate the Pharaoh's accession to the throne
02:17This is none of your business.
02:19The important thing is that we receive our wages and perform our role as a desert worker.
02:24To dazzle and entertain the people on the anniversary of the accession of the divine king
02:29Do you really believe that Pharaoh is a god?
02:33Keep your voice down, you madman!
02:35Yes, I believe
02:36As long as he pays me my wages, I believe everything he says.
02:41What do you think of the prophecy that says
02:44Because a boy from the children of Israel
02:47He will come and seize the kingdom from him.
02:49These things don't concern me.
02:51All that matters to me is doing my job and getting paid.
02:56Let's go
02:58I'm tired of sitting here
03:00I want to go for a walk
03:03It is supposed to be, my lord Pharaoh
03:05To sit for a while in your little temple
03:08To contemplate and reflect on the affairs of the universe
03:12Forget this nonsense.
03:15The god-pharaoh was afflicted with contemplation.
03:18He wants to eat and have fun
03:20Go, Haman, go and tell them that God is hungry and thirsty.
03:24My master commanded
03:31I feel suffocated because he put his hand on top of me.
03:35He disbelieves in God while standing in the shade of the tree that God created for him.
03:41How amazing are human ideas!
03:43Praise be to God that He created us as plants
03:46I feel like sitting
03:49I feel like sitting
04:13I feel like sitting
04:15Temple destroyed
04:18This is the best thing that ever happened
04:24Don't worry
04:26Do not be alarmed; this is the will of the divine king.
04:31Holy are you, O great Pharaoh
04:34He commanded the storm to blow
04:37And uproot that tree
04:39So that the small temple may take care
04:42Because Pharaoh wanted to build a larger temple befitting his status
04:47Long live the great Pharaoh
04:49Long live the great Pharaoh
04:51They took this tree and threw it away
04:55Come on, she's dominating the road.
04:57The Pharaoh's wish is an order that must be obeyed.
05:09It's a burnt tree
05:12Not suitable for making walking sticks
05:15You won't betray me
05:18You know it's a large tree
05:21One of the best types of wood
05:23The parts that burned were few.
05:26I will not pay more than five gold coins
05:31Don't forget that the tree is from Pharaoh's garden.
05:35Why is that important?
05:38When you sell the staff to the big merchants and priests
05:42They will be proud to carry a piece of Pharaoh's garden.
05:46and the burnt parts
05:49What should I do with it?
05:51I make walking sticks from them for shepherds and poor old people.
06:18Where am I?
06:20Among your female colleagues
06:21I was with you in the same tree
06:24Before the storm brings us down
06:26Does this mean we are dead?
06:29Rather, we have transformed from plants into inanimate objects.
06:34queerness
06:36When I was a plant
06:37The sun gave me greenery and softness
06:41When I died
06:42The sun began to give me strength and resilience.
06:45Isn't it amazing that our strength increases after we die?
06:50I don't understand anything you're saying.
06:53Who would buy a huge stick like me?
06:56And devoid of patterns and colors
06:59It is not adorned with any jewels.
07:02You might fix a stick for a poor shepherd
07:05The important thing is that he is kind.
07:08He does not use me for oppression or harm.
07:11Come, you who are like a staff, I will give it to your new master.
07:17His name is Musa, and he is a kind and generous man.
07:22He paid what you asked without seeing you.
07:26Strangely, a stick without engravings or decorations is being sold
07:32And I'm staying here
07:46I am sad, my sister, the rock.
07:49I don't feel important in life
07:51My friend forgets me everywhere he goes.
07:55He once forgot me in his brother Aaron's house
07:58And forget me again in the house of Pharaoh's wife
08:02The lady who raised him and whose kindness is remembered
08:05Forgive him, perhaps he is not used to carrying a stick.
08:10His features showed kindness and goodness
08:13Yes, and he serves all people.
08:16Wait for Pharaoh's soldier
08:19The man almost killed the skinny
08:22Here is Sidi Moussa trying to break up the fight.
08:26He pushes the oppressor away with his hand.
08:29What happened to this man? He fell to the ground without saying a word.
08:34He did not mean to hurt him
08:36If he wanted to harm the man
08:39I will use you, O stick
08:41Yes, sorry
08:43I will now leave with my master.

09:20What is this mess?
09:22Why do people fight over water?
09:25This is always their habit.
09:27The strong strike the weak
09:30The old men cannot find the elderly women.
09:34An opportunity for water carriers
09:36Look at this noble man
09:38It is my master Moses
09:40The one who waters the flocks of these two girls
09:43What a kind and generous person
09:47He always helps people
09:49May God reward him well
09:52They are from a noble family.
09:55Their father is an old man
09:58One of the best people here in Madin
10:02I wish he would marry one of the two girls
10:10It seems we will be seeing you a lot in the land of Midian
10:14Your master Moses
10:16He will marry one of the sheikh's daughters
10:20Yes
10:21He will work with him tending his sheep for eight years.
10:25Or perhaps ten
10:26As a dowry he presents to the bride
10:29Where did you come from, good stick?
10:33I was part of a tree in Pharaoh's garden
10:46God
10:49The place has changed completely.
10:53May God bless the work of my master Musa
10:58I heard a strange piece of news
11:00I heard that your master intends to leave with his family.
11:05This is correct
11:06Today we will travel to the Senin desert
11:09And why would he leave the land he lived on?
11:12And he toiled through all these long years?
11:17I don't know
11:18All I know is that my master is determined to leave.
11:22It seems he is preparing for a serious event
11:25You speak in riddles, O stick
11:29Sometimes I doubt that I am a stick.
11:32I feel like another creature disguised as a stick.
11:38I lead the way ahead of the caravan.
11:40One step for me and two steps for my feet, my master Moses
11:44When the sun's heat intensifies
11:47I turn into a tent peg for a small tent
11:50Shade
11:51Get back on the road
11:53The stick is for those who disobey.
11:55I don't hit them
11:57Just shoo them away
12:06They all fled
12:11I doubted the benefit to Sidi Moussa
12:15And here I am finding many benefits for myself
12:19He relies on me in his journey
12:22He drives me towards my sheep.
12:24And he uses me as a tent peg.
12:27Or as a weapon when wolves attack
12:30Who knows?
12:32Perhaps I will offer him even greater services tomorrow.
12:35How wonderful it is to feel the stick
12:39Because of its importance to its master
12:42But
12:43Am I a disobedient child?
13:02How can Sidi Musa and his family endure this?
13:05This extreme cold
13:07My wood is almost melting from the rain
13:10There is a fire
13:12We will go together
13:13His family remains waiting.
13:16Something strange
13:17It's not fire.
13:19But it is light
13:35My master Moses was terrified by my two surahs
13:38He carried me in his arms all these years
13:42He doesn't know that I'm alive.
13:44I will return to my former ways
13:47wooden stick
13:49May my master take me by the hand and not be afraid.
13:53We have a great task ahead of us.
13:56And what is that in your right hand, O Moses?
14:00He said
14:01He said, "It is my staff; I lean on it and use it to herd my sheep."
14:06I have other purposes in it.
14:09He said, "Throw it down, O Moses."
14:12So he threw it down
14:14Then it was a snake, moving about.
14:17He said, "Take it and don't be afraid."
14:20We will restore it to its former glory
14:23And fold your hand to your side
14:26She emerges white, without blemish, another sign
14:33To show you some of Our greatest signs
14:36Go to Pharaoh, for he has transgressed.
14:40God Almighty has spoken the truth.
14:44The order was given to our master Moses, peace be upon him
14:47that he should go to Pharaoh
14:50Because he was tyrannical
14:51Because he is the one who has authority over his people.
14:54Pharaoh looked down on those he ruled.
14:57So they obeyed him
14:59Believe that he is a god
15:01Or it relieved their minds from thinking about the matter.
15:04Avoid engaging in dialogue with a man who kills anyone who disagrees with him.
15:10Our master Moses went to Pharaoh's palace peacefully
15:14He knows he's going into the heart of danger
15:19God willing, tomorrow I will complete the story of Moses' staff.
15:52Musa
