Many Muslims recite Surah Kahf on Fridays as it is believed to bring blessings and protection from trials and tribulations. Each narrative presents valuable lessons and moral guidance for believers. Surah Kahf also contains three other significant stories, namely the story of the two men and their gardens, the story of Musa (Moses) and Khidr (a wise servant of God), and the story of Dhul-Qarnayn (the Two-Horned One). They fell into a deep sleep and were miraculously preserved for many years. It tells the tale of a group of young believers who sought refuge in a cave from religious persecution during the time of a tyrannical ruler. One of the most famous verse is surah kahf ayat 10.
The chapter derives its name from the story of the People of the Cave (Ashab al-Kahf), which is narrated in the beginning verses.
