وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْحَارِثِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: كَانَ مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ رَجُلًا حَيِيًّا، قَالَ فَكَانَ لَا يُرَى مُتَجَرِّدًا، قَالَ فَقَالَ: بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنَّهُ آدَرُ، قَالَ: فَاغْتَسَلَ عِنْدَ مُوَيْهٍ، فَوَضَعَ ثَوْبهُ عَلَى حَجَرٍ، فَانْطَلَقَ الْحَجَرُ يَسْعَى، وَاتَّبَعَهُ بِعَصَاهُ يَضْرِبُهُ: ثَوْبِي، حَجَرُ ‍ ثَوْبِي، حَجَرُ حَتَّى وَقَفَ عَلَى مَلَأٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَنَزَلَتْ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ آذَوْا مُوسَى فَبَرَّأَهُ اللهُ مِمَّا قَالُوا وَكَانَ عِنْدَ اللهِ وَجِيهًا} [الأحزاب: 69].

Moses was a modest person. He was never seen naked and Banu Isra'iI said: (He was afraid to expose his private part) because he had been suffering from scrotal hernia. He (one day) took bath in water and placed his garments upon a stone. The stone began to move on quickly. He followed that and struck it with the help of a stone (saying): O stone, my garment; O stone, my garments, O stone; until it stopped near the big gathering of Isrii'll, and this verse was revealed (pertaining to the incident): O you who believe, be not Iike those who maligned Moses, but Allah cleared him of what they said, and he was worthy of regard with Allah (xxxiii. 69).
