أَوَى الْفِتْیَةُ إِلَى الْکَهْفِ فَقَالُوا رَبَّنَا آتِنَا مِنْ لَدُنْکَ رَحْمَةً وَهَیِّئْ لَنَا مِنْ أَمْرِنَا رَشَدًا (١٠)فَضَرَبْنَا عَلَى آذَانِهِمْ فِی الْکَهْفِ سِنِینَ عَدَدًا (١١)ثُمَّ

1. Praise be to Allah, who hath sent to His servant the and hath allowed therein no Crookedness:

2. (He hath made it) straight (and Clear) In order that may warn (the godless) of a terrible punishment from him, and that He may glad tidings to the believers who work righteous deeds, that They shall a goodly reward,

3. Wherein They shall remain for ever:

4. Further, that He may warn those (also) who say, hath begotten a son":

5. No knowledge have They of such a thing, nor had their it is a grievous thing that issues from their mouths As a saying what say is nothing but falsehood!

6. Thou wouldst only, perchance, fret Thyself to death, after them, In grief, if They believe not In This Message.

7. That which is on earth we have made but As a Show for the earth, In order that we may test them - As to which of are best In conduct.

8. Verily what is on earth we shall make but As dust and soil (without growth or herbage).

9. Or dost Thou reflect that the companions of the Cave of the Inscription were wonders among Our Sign?

10. Behold, the youths betook themselves to the Cave: said, "Our Lord! bestow on us Mercy from thyself, and dispose of Our affair us In the right way!"

11. Then we draw (A veil) over their ears, for a number years, In the cave, (so that They heard not):

12. Then we roused them, In order to test which of the parties was best at calculating the term of years They had tarried!

13. We relate to Thee their story In truth: They were who believed In their Lord, and we advanced them In guidance:

14. We gave strength to their hearts: Behold, They up and said: "Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and of the earth: never we call upon any god other than him: if we did, we should indeed have an enormity!

15. "These Our people have taken for worship gods other him: why do They not bring forward an authority Clear (and convincing) for They do? who doth more wrong than such As invent a falsehood against Allah.

16. "When ye turn away from them and the things They other than Allah, betake yourselves to the Cave: your Lord will shower mercies on you and disposes of your affair towards comfort and ease."

17. Thou wouldst have seen the sun, when it rose, to the right from their cave, and when it set, turning away from them the left, while They Lay In the open space In the midst of the Cave. such are the Signs of Allah. He whom Allah, guides is rightly guided; but He whom leaves to stray,- for Him wilt Thou find no Protector to lead Him to the way.

18. Thou wouldst have deemed them awake, whilst They asleep, and we turned them on their right and on their left sides: their stretching forth His two fore-legs on the threshold: if Thou hadst come up to them, Thou wouldst have certainly turned back from them In flight, and certainly have been filled with terror of them.

19. Such (being their state), we raised them up (from that They might question Each other. said one of them, "How long have ye (here)?" They said, "We have stayed (Perhaps) a Day, or part of a Day." length) They (all) said, "(Allah) (alone) knows best How long ye have stayed Now send ye then one of you with This money of yours to the town: let find out which is the best food (to be had) and bring some to you, that (ye satisfy your hunger therewith: and let Him behave with care and courtesy, let Him not inform any one about you.

20. "For if They should come upon you, They would stone or force you to return to their cult, and In that case ye would never attain

21. Thus did we make their case known to the people, They might know that the promise of Allah is True, and that there can be no about the Hour of Judgment. Behold, They dispute among themselves As to affair. (Some) said, "Construct a building over them": their Lord knows about them: those who prevailed over their affair said, "Let us surely a place of worship over them."

22. (Some) say They were three, the dog being the among them; (others) say They were five, the dog being the sixth,- guessing at the unknown; (yet others) say They were seven, the dog the eighth. say thou: "My Lord knoweth best their number; it is but few know their (real case)." enter not, Therefore, into controversies them, except on a matter that is clear, nor consult any of them about affair of) the Sleepers.

23. Nor say of anything, "I shall be sure to do so and tomorrow"-

24. Without adding, "So please Allah." and call Thy to mind when Thou forgettest, and say, "I hope that My Lord will guide me closer (Even) than This to the right road."

25. So They stayed In their Cave three hundred years, (Some) add Nine (more)

26. Say: "(Allah) knows best How long They stayed: with is (the knowledge of) the secrets of the heavens and the earth: How clearly sees, How finely He hears (everything)! They have no Protector other than nor does He share His command with any person whatsoever.

27. And Recite (and teach) what has been revealed to of the Book of Thy Lord: none can change His words, and none wilt Thou find a refuge other than Him.

28. And keep Thy soul content with those who call on Lord morning and evening, seeking His Face; and let not Thine eyes pass them, seeking the pomp and glitter of This life; no obey any whose heart have Permitted to neglect the remembrance of us, one who follows His own whose case has gone beyond all bounds.

29. Say, "The truth is from your Lord": let Him who believe, and let Him who will, reject (it): for the wrong-doers we have a Fire whose (smoke and flames), like the walls and roof of a tent, hem them in: if They implore relief They will be granted water like melted that will scald their faces, How dreadful the drink! How uncomfortable a to recline on!

30. As to those who believe and work righteousness, we shall not suffer to perish the reward of any who do a (single) deed.

31. For them will be Gardens of Eternity; beneath them will flow; They will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold, and They wear green garments of fine silk and heavy brocade: They will recline on raised thrones. How good the recompense! How beautiful a couch to on!

32. Set forth to them the parable of two men: for one them we provided two Gardens of grape-vines and surrounded them with date In between the two we placed corn-fields.

33. Each of those Gardens brought forth its produce, failed not In the least therein: In the midst of them we caused a river to

34. (Abundant) was the produce This man had : He said His companion, In the course of a mutual argument: "more wealth have I than and more honour and power In (my following of) men."

35. He went into His Garden In a state (of mind) unjust His soul: He said, "I deem not that This will ever perish,

36. "Nor do I deem that the Hour (of judgment) will come: Even if I am brought back to My Lord, I shall surely find (there) better In exchange."

37. His companion said to him, In the course of the with him: "Dost Thou deny Him who created Thee out of dust, then out of sperm-drop, then fashioned Thee into a man?

38. "But (I think) for My part that He is Allah, My and none shall I associate with My Lord.

39. "Why Didst Thou not, As Thou wentest into Thy say: "(Allah)"s will (be done)! there is no power but with Allah." if dost see me less than Thee In wealth and sons,

40. "It may be that My Lord will give me something than Thy garden, and that He will send on Thy Garden thunderbolts (by way reckoning) from heaven, Making it (but) slippery sand!-

41. "Or the water of the Garden will run off so that Thou wilt never be able to find it."

42. So His Fruits (and enjoyment) were encompassed ruin), and He remained twisting and turning His hands over what He had on His property, which had (now) tumbled to pieces to its very and He could only say, "Woe is me! would I had never ascribed to My Lord and Cherisher!"

43. Nor had He numbers to help Him against Allah, nor He able to deliver Himself.

44. There, the (only) protection comes from Allah, the one. He is the best to reward, and the best to give success.

45. Set forth to them the similitude of the life of world: it is like the rain which we send down from the skies: the earth"s absorbs it, but soon it becomes dry stubble, which the winds do it is (only) Allah who prevails over all things.

46. Wealth and sons are allurements of the life of This but the things that endure, good deeds, are best In the sight of Thy As rewards, and best As (the foundation for) hopes.

47. One Day we shall remove the mountains, and Thou see the earth As a level stretch, and we shall gather them, all together, shall we leave out any one of them.

48. And They will be marshalled before Thy Lord In (with the announcement), "Now have ye come to us (bare) As we created you Aye, ye thought we shall not fulfil the appointment made to you to meet

49. And the Book (of deeds) will be placed (before and Thou wilt see the sinful In great terror because of what is (recorded) They will say, "Ah! woe to us! what a Book is this! it leaves out small or great, but takes account thereof!" They will find all that They placed before them: and not one will Thy Lord treat with injustice.

50. Behold! we said to the angels, "Bow down to Adam": bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the jinns, and He broke the command His Lord. will ye then take Him and His progeny As protectors rather than me? They are enemies to you! evil would be the exchange for the wrong-doers!

51. I called them not to witness the creation of the heavens and the earth, nor (Even) their own creation: nor is it for me to take As helpers such As lead (men) astray!

52. One Day He will say, "Call on those whom ye thought be My partners," and They will call on them, but They will not listen to and we shall make for them a place of common perdition.
