All Praise

(is) for Allah

the One Who

(has) revealed

to

His slave

the Book

and not

(has) made

in it

any crookedness

Straight

to warn

(of) a punishment

severe

from

near Him

and give glad tidings

(to) the believers

those who

do

righteous deeds

that

for them

(is) a good reward

(is) a good reward

(They will) abide

in it

forever

And to warn

those who

say

Allah has taken

Allah has taken

a son

Not

they have

about it

any

knowledge

and not

their forefathers

Mighty (is)

the word

(that) comes out

of

their mouths

Not

they say

except

a lie

Then perhaps you would (be)

the one who kills

yourself

over

their footsteps

if

not

they believe

in this

[the] narration

(in) grief

Indeed We

We have made

what

(is) on

the earth

adornment

for it

that We may test [them]

which of them

(is) best

(in) deed

And indeed We

(will) surely make

what

(is) on it

soil

barren

Or

have you thought

that

(the) companions

(of) the cave

and the inscription

were

among

Our Signs

a wonder

When

retreated

the youths

to

the cave

and they said

Our Lord

Grant us

from

Yourself

Mercy

and facilitate

for us

[from]

our affair

(in the) right way

So We cast

over

their ears

in

the cave

years

a number

Then

We raised them up

that We make evident

which

(of) the two parties

best calculated

for what

(they had) remained

(in) time

We

narrate

to you

their story

in truth

Indeed they (were)

youths

who believed

in their Lord

and We increased them

(in) guidance

And We made firm

[on]

their hearts

when

they stood up

and said

Our Lord

(is) the Lord

(of) the heavens

and the earth

Never

we will invoke

besides Him

besides Him

any god

Certainly

we would have said

then

an enormity

These

our people

have taken

besides Him

besides Him

gods

Why not

they come

to them

with an authority

clear

And who

(is) more wrong

than (one) who

invents

against

Allah

a lie

And when

you withdraw from them

and what

they worship

except

Allah

then retreat

to

the cave

Will spread

for you

your Lord

of

His Mercy

and will facilitate

for you

[from]

your affair

(in) ease

And you (might) have seen

the sun

when

it rose

inclining away

from

their cave

to

the right

and when

it set

passing away from them

to

the left

while they

(lay) in

the open space

thereof

That

(was) from

(the) Signs

(of) Allah

Whoever

Allah guides

Allah guides

and he

(is) the guided one

and whoever

He lets go astray

then never

you will find

for him

a protector

a guide

And you (would) think them

awake

while they

(were) asleep

And We turned them

to

the right

and to

the left

while their dog

stretched

his two forelegs

at the entrance

If

you had looked

at them

you (would) have surely turned back

from them

(in) flight

and surely you would have been filled

by them

(with) terror

And similarly

We raised them

that they might question

among them

Said

a speaker

among them

How long

have you remained

They said

We have remained

a day

or

a part

(of) a day

They said

Your Lord

knows best

how long

you have remained

So send

one of you

with this silver coin of yours

with this silver coin of yours

to

the city

and let him see

which is

the purest

food

and let him bring to you

provision

from it

and let him be cautious

And let not be aware

And let not be aware

about you

anyone

Indeed [they]

if

they come to know

about you

they will stone you

or

return you

to

their religion

And never

will you succeed

then

ever

And similarly

We made known

about them

that they might know

that

(the) Promise

(of) Allah

(is) true

and that

(about) the Hour

(there is) no

doubt

in it

When

they disputed

among themselves

about their affair

and they said

Construct

over them

a structure

Their Lord

knows best

about them

Said

those who

prevailed

in

their matter

Surely we will take

over them

a place of worship

They say

(they were) three

the forth of them

their dog

and they say

(they were) five

the sixth of them

their dog

guessing

about the unseen

and they say

(they were) seven

and the eight of them

their dog

Say

My Lord

knows best

their number

None

knows them

except

a few

So (do) not

argue

about them

except

(with) an argument

obvious

and (do) not

inquire

about them

among them

(from) anyone

And (do) not

say

of anything

Indeed I

will do

that

tomorrow

Except

If

Allah wills

Allah wills

And remember

your Lord

when

you forget

and say

Perhaps

[that]

will guide me

my Lord

to a nearer (way)

than

this

right way

And they remained

in

their cave

(for) three

hundred

years

and add

nine
