Surah al-Kahf is a surah of refuge. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever memorizes the first ten verses of Surah al-Kahf will be protected from the Dajjal." (Muslim)

In this tafsir, we walk through the four great narratives of the surah — the People of the Cave, the owner of the two gardens, Musa and Khidr, and Dhul-Qarnayn — each illuminating a trial that the believer will face in the last days.
