Have you ever wondered why Prophet Muhammad(SAW) asked us to recite Surat Al-Kahf every Friday?
Let’s find out today inshaAllah…
This Surah has Four stories in it,having some morals,lets see them and understand what they are saying to us:
1) The People Of The Cave
Its the story of young men who lived
in a disbelieving town, so they decided to migrate for the sake of
Allah and run away. -Allah rewards them with mercy in the cave and
protection from the sun – They woke up and found the entire village
believers.
MORAL:TRIAL OF FAITH.
2) The Owner Of Two Gardens
A story of a man whom Allah blessed
with two beautiful gardens, but the man forgot to thank the One who
blessed him with everything and he even dared to doubt Allah regarding
the afterlife.So His garden was destroyed – He regretted ,but was too
late and his regret did not benefit him .
MORAL:TRIAL OF WEALTH.
3) Musa(AS) and Khidr(AS)
When Musa(AS) was asked-“Who’s the
most knowledgeable of the people of earth?”” Musa(AS) said:Me…,but Allah
revealed to him that there’s someone who Knows more than him.Musa(AS)
traveled to the man and learnt how the Divine Wisdom can sometimes be
hidden in matters which we perceive as bad.
MORAL:TRIAL OF KNOWLEDGE.
4) Dhul-Qarnayn
It's a story of the great King that
was given knowledge and power and was going around the world,helping
people and spreading all that’s good.He was able to overcome the problem
of Yajooj-Majooj and build a massive dam with the help of people whom
he could not even understand.
MORAL:TRIAL OF POWER
In the middle Allah mentions Iblees as the one who stirs these trials:
Behold! We said to the angels “Bow
down to Adam”: they bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the Jinns,
and he broke the Command of his Lord. Will ye then take him and his
progeny as protectors rather than Me? And they are enemies to you! Evil
would be the exchange for the wrongdoers!
Now let us see what’s the relationship between Surat Al-Kahf and the Dajjal (Anti-Christ)?
Dajjal will appear before Day of Judgement with the 4 trials:
***He’ll ask people to worship him and not Allah:
Trial of Faith .
***He’ll be given powers to start/stop rain and tempt people with his wealth:
Trial of with his wealth. .
***He’ll trial people with the “knowledge” and news he gives them:
Trial of Knowledge .
He’ll control huge parts of the Earth.
Trial of Power .
How to survive these trials? The answers are in Surat Al-Kahf
# Survival Kit 1: Good companionship.
“And keep thy soul content with
those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His Face; and
let not thine eyes pass beyond them, seeking the pomp and glitter of
this Life; no obey any whose heart We have permitted to neglect the
remembrance of Us, one who follows his own desires, whose case has gone
beyond all bounds.” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 28)
# Survival Kit 2: Knowing the Truth of this World .
“Set forth to them the similitude of
the life of this world: It is like the rain which we send down from the
skies: the earth’s vegetation absorbs it, but soon it becomes dry
stubble, which the winds do scatter: it is (only) Allah who prevails
over all things” (Surat Al-Kahf, verse 45)
# Survival Kit 3: Humbleness.
“Moses said: “Thou wilt find me, if
Allah so will, (truly) patient: nor shall I disobey thee in
aught.””(Surat Al-Kahf, verse 69)
# Survival Kit 4: Sincerity.
“Say: “I am but a man like
yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your Allah is one
Allah. whoever expects to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness,
and, in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as partner.” (Surat Al-
Kahf, verse 110)
# Survival Kit 5: Calling to Allah .
“And recite (and teach) what has
been revealed to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can change His
Words, and none wilt thou find as a refuge other than Him.” (Surat
Al-Kahf, verse 27)
# Survival Kit 6: Remembering the HereAfter .
“ One Day We shall remove the
mountains, and thou wilt see the earth as a level stretch, and We shall
gather them, all together, nor shall We leave out any one of them. And
they will be marshalled before thy Lord in ranks, (with the
announcement), “Now have ye come to Us (bare) as We created you first:
aye, ye thought We shall not fulfil the appointment made to you to meet
(Us)!”: And the Book (of Deeds) will be placed (before you); and thou
wilt see the sinful in great terror because of what is (recorded)
therein; they will say, “Ah! woe to us! what a Book is this! It leaves
out nothing small or great,but takes account thereof !” They will find
all that they did, placed before them: And not one will thy Lord treat
with injustice.” (Surat Al-Kahf, verses 47-49)
