Surah Al-Kahf (الكهف‎) is the 18th chapter of the Qur’an. The surah titled in English means “The Cave” and it consists of 110 verses.

This Surah mentions 3 stories, the people of the cave, the story of Musa (عليه السلام), and of Dhu’l Qarnayn. It warns against the dangers of pleasures and it’s allure which can cause people to behave in strange ways that go against teachings of Islam. It can lead to focusing on maximizing desires of the world neglecting our duty to Allah (سُبْحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ).
These stories teach Muslims the value of faith, knowledge, patience, and the shortness of time on this planet.

“Wealth and children are [but] adornment of the worldly life. But the enduring good deeds are better to your Lord for reward and better for [one’s] hope.”
Surah Kahf Ayat 46
