وَإِنَّا لَجَٰعِلُونَ مَا عَلَيۡهَا صَعِيدٗا جُرُزًا
Wainna lajaAAiloona ma AAalayha saAAeedan juruzan
Verily what is on earth we shall make but as dust and dry soil (without growth or herbage).
18. Kehf · verses 8–13
سورة الكهفأَمۡ حَسِبۡتَ أَنَّ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡكَهۡفِ وَٱلرَّقِيمِ كَانُواْ مِنۡ ءَايَٰتِنَا عَجَبًا
Am hasibta anna ashaba alkahfi waalrraqeemi kanoo min ayatina AAajaban
Or dost thou reflect that the Companions of the Cave and of the Inscription were wonders among Our Sign?
إِذۡ أَوَى ٱلۡفِتۡيَةُ إِلَى ٱلۡكَهۡفِ فَقَالُواْ رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحۡمَةٗ وَهَيِّئۡ لَنَا مِنۡ أَمۡرِنَا رَشَدٗا

Then We draw (a veil) over their ears, for a number of years, in the Cave, (so that they heard not):
ثُمَّ بَعَثۡنَٰهُمۡ لِنَعۡلَمَ أَيُّ ٱلۡحِزۡبَيۡنِ أَحۡصَىٰ لِمَا لَبِثُوٓاْ أَمَدٗا
Thumma baAAathnahum linaAAlama ayyu alhizbayni ahsa lima labithoo amadan
Then We roused them, in order to test which of the two parties was best at calculating the term of years they had tarried!
نَّحۡنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيۡكَ نَبَأَهُم بِٱلۡحَقِّۚ إِنَّهُمۡ فِتۡيَةٌ ءَامَنُواْ بِرَبِّهِمۡ وَزِدۡنَٰهُمۡ هُدٗى
Nahnu naqussu AAalayka nabaahum bialhaqqi innahum fityatun amanoo birabbihim wazidnahum hudan
We relate to thee their story in truth: they were youths who believed in their Lord, and We advanced them in guidance:
