155-1 This was the same she-camel that had appeared as a miracle from a rock at their request. One day was fixed for the she-camel and one day for them for water, and it was told to them that on the day when it is your turn to take water, the she-camel will not come to the watering place, and on the day when it is the she-camel's turn to drink water, you are not allowed to come to the watering place.
