15. "These our people have taken for worship gods other than Him: why do they not
bring forward an authority clear (and convincing) for what they do? Who doth more
wrong than such as invent a falsehood against Allah.

yourselves to the Cave: Your Lord will shower His mercies on you and disposes of your

17. Thou wouldst have seen the sun, when it rose, declining to the right from their Cave,
and when it set, turning away from them to the left, while they lay in the open space in
the midst of the Cave. Such are among the Signs of Allah. He whom Allah, guides is
rightly guided; but he whom Allah leaves to stray,- for him wilt thou find no protector to
lead him to the Right Way.
