Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Musa meeting with Al-Khidr and accompanying HimAllah tells us what Musa said to that learned man, who was Al-Khidr. He was one to whom Allah had given knowledge that He had not given to Musa, just as He had given Musa knowledge that He had not given to Al-Khidr.قَالَ لَهُ مُوسَى هَلْ أَتَّبِعُكَ(Musa said to him: "May I follow you...") This is a question phrased in gentle terms, with no sense of force or coercion. This is the manner in which the seeker of knowledge should address the scholar.
