*"Companions of the Cave. Around a long time back, there was a dictator lord Dacianus in the city of Ephesus in the Roman Realm.
Anyone who did not worship idols was killed

One day to witness the killing of believers

Some young people came and Allah removed the veils from their eyes

So they saw that whichever believer was killed, the angels would descend from heaven and take his soul with them.

Seeing this faith-insp



iring sight, all those young people believed.
A three-day respite was given to King Dacianus on his journey

When he came to know about this, he gave them 3 days' respite

That until I return, go back to faith, otherwise you will be killed

On the third day, this young man of faith took some goods and left the city at night

On the way, they met a shepherd tending his family's goats

To whom he narrated his story and invited him to believe, the shepherd accepted faith.

And the shepherd's dog joined them as they traveled.

In the morning they reached a cave about 6 miles from the city and slept after eating.

That they are called Companions of the Caves

The cave was closed. On returning from a trip, King Dacianus found out that the companions of the cave had taken refuge in the cave.

So he built a wall at the mouth of the cave so that they could be transferred there due to hunger and thirst.

And let this cave become their grave. The government official who was given this task has given the names of the Companions of Khaf and their entire history.

Feroz wrote the language on a tablet made from 874 AD and sealed it in a copper box and kept it in the foundations of the wall.



309 Years of Yand Companions of Kahf remained completely asleep for about 309 years.

During this period many kings came and went without waking up for a moment due to any sound

Even during the reign of a good-hearted king Bedrus, there were many calamities in his time, one of which was this.

That some people had started denying the resurrection after death and the coming of the Day of Judgment. Baidurus, seeing this situation, cried out in the divine court, "May Allah, the Exalted, show some sign that will save people from dying."

Then there is the certainty of resurrection and the coming of the Day of Judgment, so Allah Almighty accepted the king's prayer like this.

That a shepherd chose that cave for the rest of his goats and together with the people, he demolished the wall built on the mouth of the cave.

But there was such a panic that everyone ran away from there. After the wall fell, the Companions woke up in a state as if they had slept for a night, their faces were fresh and their clothes were completely clean.

Also, his dog was lying on the side of the cave with his wrists spread.

When he got up, there was still some time left for the sun to set, he prayed and sent his companion Yamlikha to bring food.

And to buy food, he gave a coin of the Daqiyanus era, and the market people thought it was a centuries-old coin.

That an old treasure has come into their hands, they took Yemelikha to the ruler. He asked where is the treasure?

Yamlikha said: This is not a treasure, it is our own money. The ruler said:

how it is possible! This coin is 300 years old, we have never seen this coin.

Yamelikha said, "What is the condition of King Daqianus?"

Just yesterday, we were hiding in a cave to save our lives from stereotypes. Come on! I introduce you to my colleagues

Hakim and many people went towards the cave. When the Companions in the cave heard the voice of the people, they thought that Yamlikha had been captured.

And the stereotypical army is coming to catch them too. Yamelikha reached the cave and told his companions the whole story. He also came and after seeing the condition of the Companions of KahfSajdah thanked

That Allah the Exalted gave a sign to assure the resurrection after death and the soul was seized.

After that, the Companions of Kahf came to the cave and slept

And his soul seized



Bederos placed their blessed bodies in a wooden box

He ordered the construction of a mosque near the cave and fixed a day for the people

That they come there every year like Eid

Number and their_name

According to a saying, the number of Companions of Kahf was 7, whose names are:



1 Maksilmina

2 Yamlikha

3 Martunas

4 Baynoos

5 Sarinunus

6 Dhu Nawanis

7 Discovery

And the dog's name was Kazmeer.



If I have made any mistake, you can help me by correcting it with the light of your knowledge.

Jazak Allah.
