Verses 9 – 26, believed to have been revealed in Mecca in the 4 thor 5 th year of Prophethood, narrate the account of the Companions of the Cave. In the very early days of Islam, chapter 18 ‘The Cave’ was known by the longer title of ‘The Companions of the Cave’. It takes up a little over 20 verses in the Quran yet it is filled with lessons for those who seek to find them.Ĭhapter names were not revealed with the Quran, thus some chapters are known by more than one name. Does the story about the cave, and the pious young men sleeping for hundreds of years sound familiar to you? It forms part of a chapter of the Quran known as ‘The Cave’ and it is also an unauthenticated Christian tradition known well in the more Orthodox areas of Christendom.
