In the Quran

فَٱنطَلَقَا حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا لَقِيَا غُلَٰمًۭا فَقَتَلَهُۥ قَالَ أَقَتَلْتَ نَفْسًۭا زَكِيَّةًۢ بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍۢ لَّقَدْ جِئْتَ شَيْـًۭٔا نُّكْرًۭا

پھر دونوں چلے۔ یہاں تک کہ (رستے میں) ایک لڑکا ملا تو (خضر نے) اُسے مار ڈالا۔ (موسیٰ نے) کہا کہ آپ نے ایک بےگناہ شخص کو ناحق بغیر قصاص کے مار ڈالا۔ (یہ تو) آپ نے بری بات کی

So they twain journeyed on till, when they met a lad, he slew him. (Moses) said: What! Hast thou slain an innocent soul who hath slain no man? Verily thou hast done a horrid thing.
