7:160
Hajar-I Mukarram (Honourable Rock): By the honourable rock from where twelve springs gushed out, is meant the Pearl of Intellect whose knowledge flows in twelve ranks. The mazhar of this in the physical world is the Imam of the time who always gives knowledge to twelve Hujjats. But it is important to remember that the exalted Imam does not compel a mumin to drink the water of spiritual knowledge until he creates an ardent thirst in himself and seeks this water from the Imam. In the example of Hazrat Musa it is clear that God and His Prophet knew that the children of Israel were in dire need of water, but the miracle of water only appeared when they asked their Prophet for water and he prayed to God for them (7:160).
