Almost all of us know about the meeting of two women with Musa (peace be upon him) in Madyan.
They came to water their goat from a well. He came to the well and saw that many men were drawing water from the well for their own needs. Since there were a lot of men coming to the well, the two of them thought it would be better to wait at a distance instead of going to the well. As soon as the men left, they decided to go to the well.
But over time, that is likely to change. The two women also stood and waited.
The matter came to the notice of Musa Alaihis Salam. He realized that the two girls were not coming to the well because of the anagona of the men. Again, they did not understand that they have been standing for a long time What can be done in this situation?
Moses (peace be upon him) decided that he would rather bring water to the goats of the two women. By doing this, they don't have to come among the men anymore, they don't have to stand away and count the waiting hours.
The work that you think. Moses (peace be upon him) brought water to their goats at his own risk.
We also know the following story: The girls did not forget to tell the story of the help of Musa (peace be upon him) to their father. The father of the girls wanted to reward such a benevolent servant of God He sent for Musa (peace be upon him).
When the girls came in front of their father, one of the girls said to their father, 'Father, you better hire this man. You should hire people who are strong and capable '. - Surah Al-Qasas, verse 26
The meeting of the two girls with Musa (peace be upon him) is but momentary. How did they realize in such a short time that Musa (as) was a strong and faithful man, without any previous identity?
There is a beautiful explanation in the commentary. The well from which Musa (peace be upon him) watered the two goats had a heavy iron lid on the mouth of the well. It would have been difficult for ten people to move the lid together. But, the two girls saw that Musa Alaihis Salam removed the heavy lid alone and made water! Seeing this, they realized that this man must be a strong man.
However, how did he know that he was faithful?
The commentators also said: On the way to the girls' house, Musa (as) said to the two girls, "I walk first, you follow me." If I start going the wrong way, you will just throw a stone and show me the right way '.
Do you know why Musa Alaihis Salam wanted to walk before the girls? Because if he follows the girls, then Satan will want to focus his attention on the girls again and again. The Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) wanted to walk earlier that day to avoid the whisperings of the devil and to guard his eyesight, even though he did not know the way to their house at all.
The man who is so diligent in guarding his character, his gaze, who hides his gaze from lonely women in this way, will be faithful. So, the thinking of the women was not in vain.

I think: What a wonderful example Moses left for us in today's world of show-offs!
Nowadays we do not try to show our quality to others, to show it to others! I know a lot of guys who wear expensive clothes, buy expensive models of bikes, go to expensive restaurants to impress their girlfriends. There are many girls who have the same thoughts all day long - how to impress their boyfriend more, how to make him more fascinated, more fascinated by his looks and qualities. I've heard stories like this: The boy goes to the gym and works hard to build a six-pack body, because he likes his girlfriend's six-pack body.
However, Musa (peace be upon him) did not rush to impress the two girls but to water their goats. He wanted to impress only Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. He has kept his vision as a provision of Allah. If he let the two girls go ahead, he may have trouble keeping his eyesight, he may be overcome by the whisperings of the devil - out of this fear he wants to go ahead.
This is to work only to impress Allah, to hold fast to the commandments of Allah with love, to always strive to abide by them কী what did Musa (peace be upon him) get in return for all this?
He came to Madyan in a state of complete helplessness. There was no shelter, no provision of food. However, due to this incident, Allah (swt) gave him shelter in the house of a pious servant. According to some commentators, the father of the two girls was also a prophet of God. Not only did Musa (as) find refuge, but he also got one of the two girls as his life partner.
He has used his power for the benefit of the people. He did this only to please God. Even in his helpless, chaotic state, he did not forget his character, the care of his eyes. As a reward for all this, he got a good shelter, a good life partner and a good guardian (his father-in-law).
In the world of show off, those of us who die trying to impress others, what do we really get at the end of the day? And Musa (peace be upon him), whose vow was only to please Allah, to gain Allah's pleasure, tell me what he did not get?
