FOUR LESSONS FROM SURAH KAHF. (Chapter No 18):

- Trial of Faith (People of the cave, Ashabul Kahf)

- Trial of Wealth (Stories of 2 men and the 2 gardens)

- Trial of Knowledge (Prophet Musa & al-Khidr)

- Trial of Power (Zulqarnain with Ya'juj & Ma'juj)

In the middle of these 4 stories in Surah al-Kahf, (Iblis) Devil is the one who stirs these trials.

So... How do we survive these trials? (Solutions can be found in Surah al-Kahf too)

1. Calling to Allah & Recitation of Qur'an (18:27)

2. Good companionship (18:28)

3. Knowing the truth about this world.(18:45)

"And put forward to them the example of the life of this world, it is like the water (rain) which We send down from the sky, and the vegetation of the earth mingles with it, and becomes fresh and green. But (later) it becomes dry and broken pieces, which the winds scatter. And Allah is Able to do everything"

4. Remembering the Hereafter. (18:47-49)

5. Patience. (18:69)

6. Sincerity. (18:110)

Remember to read Surah al Kahf on Jumu'ah which is tomorrow and it has a lot of benefit !!!
