Sura Al-Kahf from 16 to 20


16. ( The young men said to one another ) : « And when you withdraw from them, and that which they worship, except Allâh, then seek refuge in the Cave; your Lord will open a way for you from His Mercy and will make easy for you your affair ( i.e. will give you what you will need of provision, dwelling ) . »
17. And you might have seen the sun, when it rose, declining to the right from their Cave, and when it set, turning away from them to the left, while they lay in the midst of the Cave. That is ( one ) of the Ayât ( proofs, evidence, signs ) of Allâh. He whom Allâh guides, he is the rightly guided; but he whom He sends astray, for him you will find no Walî ( guiding friend ) to lead him ( to the right Path ) .
18. And you would have thought them awake, whereas they were asleep. And We turned them on their right and on their left sides, and their dog stretching forth his two forelegs at the entrance [ of the Cave or in the space near to the entrance of the Cave ( as a guard at the gate ) ] . Had you looked at them, you would certainly have turned back from them in flight, and would certainly have been filled with awe of them.
19. Likewise, We awakened them ( from their long deep sleep ) that they might question one another. A speaker from among them said: « How long have you stayed ( here ) ? » They said: « We have stayed ( perhaps ) a day or part of a day. » They said: « Your Lord ( Alone ) knows best how long you have stayed ( here ) . So send one of you with this silver coin of yours to the town, and let him find out which is the good lawful food, and bring some of that to you. And let him be careful and let no man know of you.»
20. « For, if they come to know of you, they will stone you ( to death or abuse and harm you ) or turn you back to their religion; and in that case you will never be successful. »
