Surah Al-Kahf (The Cave) in English

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

1. الحمد لله الذي أنزل على عبده الكتاب ولم يجعل له عوجا

   1

   All praise belongs to Allah, who has sent down the Book to His servant and did not let any crookedness be in it,

   al-ḥamdu li-llāhi lladhī ʾanzala ʿalā ʿabdihi l-kitāba wa-lam yajʿal lahū ʿiwajā

2. قيما لينذر بأسا شديدا من لدنه ويبشر المؤمنين الذين يعملون الصالحات أن لهم أجرا حسنا

   2

   [a Book] upright, to warn of a severe punishment from Him, and to give good news to the faithful who do righteous deeds, that there shall be for them a good reward,

   qayyiman li-yundhira baʾsan shadīdan min ladunhu wa-yubashshira l-muʾminīna lladhīna yaʿmalūna ṣ-ṣāliḥāti ʾanna lahum ʾajran ḥasanan

3. ماكثين فيه أبدا

   to abide in it forever,

   mākithīna fīhi ʾabadan

4. وينذر الذين قالوا اتخذ الله ولدا

   4

   and to warn those who say, ‘Allah has taken a son.’

   wa-yundhira lladhīna qālū ttakhadha llāhu waladan
