To one he gave a purse of frankincense, to the second a purse of myrrh, and to the third a purse of gold. He directed them by a star he described to them, and they travelled until they reached the Messiah and his mother Maryam in the land of al-Sham. {cite:muruj-al-dhahab p.551}\n\nThe star moved with them when they moved and stood still when they stood. Al-Mas'udi relates that the Christians exaggerate the story of these men, that the account is in the Gospel, and that he explained it in his book *Akhbar al-Zaman*. {cite:muruj-al-dhahab p.551}"
