This incident sheds light on the miraculous incident of the people of the cave and their dog described in Surah Al-Kahf. Adding the verses of the Holy Quran and their translation will make it more clear.
- Surah al-Kahf, verse 17: "And when the sun came out of its cave, it was on the right and when it went west, it was on the north." َةٍ مِّنْهُ ۚ That is among the verses of Allah ۗ He who guides Allah, He is the Guide.
Translation: "And you will see that when the sun rises, it leaves their cave on the right side, and when it sets, it sets on the left side, and they are in the open space inside the cave. This is Allah. One of the signs is that whoever Allah guides, he is on the right path, and whoever He leads astray, you will not find a guide for him."
This verse makes it clear that Allah Ta'ala had arranged for the protection of the bodies of the people of the cave in such a way that if the sunlight came into the cave, it would not fall directly on them, so that they could be protected from harm.
- Surah Al-Kahf, verse 18: "And they are upright and they are standing If you had looked at them, you would have fled from them, and you would have been filled with fear from them."
Translation: "And you will perceive them awake although they are asleep, and We used to drive them to the right and to the left, and their dog stretched out both hands on the edge of the cave. If you had seen them, you would have run away from them." And their terror would fall upon you."
In this verse, Allah Ta'ala mentions the turning of the bodies of the people of Kahf so that their bodies remain safe and do not get injured. But his dog mentions that he slept without turning over, which is a miracle.
Science and natural reality: The purpose of the Ahl al-Kahf's body flipping was to prevent sores from forming on their bodies, as modern medicine suggests that lying in one position for long periods of time can cause sores on the body (bed sores). ). However, the verse also mentions sleeping without the dog turning over, which was a miracle.
A German doctor was surprised by the fact that the dog survived without being flipped, and when he studied the anatomy of dogs, he discovered that dogs have special glands that secrete a fluid that lubricates their bodies. Protects from injuries.
Miraculous reality of the Quran: These verses teach us that every word and every event in the Holy Quran has a deep wisdom and miracle. The facts contained in the Qur'an are also consistent with the modern principles of science, and prove that it is the Word of Allah, the source of guidance and knowledge for all ages.
