He will be also accompanied by seventy-seven successive angels asking Almighty Allah to forgive him. These verses are as follows: And when he turned his face toward Midian, he said, "Peradventure, my Lord will guide me in the right road." And when he came unto the water of Midian, he found there a whole tribe of men, watering. And he found apart from them two women keeping back their flocks. He said, "What ails you?" The two said, "We cannot give our flocks to drink until the shepherds return from the water, and our father is a very old man." So, he watered their flock for them. Then he turned aside into the shade, and said, "My Lord! l am needy of whatever good You send for me." Then, there came unto him one of the two women, walking shyly. She said, , "Lo! My

father bids you that he may reward you with a payment for that you did water (the flock) for us." Then, when he came unto him and told him the whole story, he said, "Fear not! You have escaped from the wrongdoing folk." One of the two women said, "O my father! Hire him! For the best man that you can hire is the strong, the trustworthy." He said, "Lo! I fain would marry you to one of these two daughters of mine on condition that you hire yourself to me for the term of eight years. Then if you complete ten, it will be of your own accord, for I would not make it hard for you. Allah willing, you will find me of the righteous." He said, "That is settled between you and me. Whichever of the two terms I fulfill, there will be no injustice to me, and Allah is Surety over what we say."
