He Whom Allah Guides is the Guided

Aaoodhoo billahe minashaitan rajeem 

Al-Kahf 18:17

وَتَرَى ٱلشَّمْسَ إِذَا طَلَعَت تَّزَٰوَرُ عَن كَهْفِهِمْ ذَاتَ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَإِذَا غَرَبَت تَّقْرِضُهُمْ ذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَهُمْ فِى فَجْوَةٍ مِّنْهُۚ ذَٰلِكَ مِنْ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِۗ مَن يَهْدِ ٱللَّهُ فَهُوَ ٱلْمُهْتَدِۖ وَمَن يُضْلِلْ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُ‌و وَلِيًّا مُّرْشِدًا 

And [had you been present], you would see the sun when it rose, inclining away from their cave on the right, and when it set, passing away from them on the left, while they were [laying] within an open space thereof. That was from the signs of Allah . He whom Allah guides is the [rightly] guided, but he whom He leaves astray -  never will you find for him a protecting guide.

Allah o Akbar. This ayah is a sign of Allah. Allah is telling how He controlled the sun so that it just gives the benefit to those young boys of faith. Everybody knows sunlight is necessary for our well being and we also know that extra amount of sunlight or sunlight at particular times of day can be harmful for us. But for those young adult Allah controlled the sun to give them the benefit only and to save them from harm. Subhan Allah. Why did Allah did such a big thing for those boys? Because they believed and stood up for truth. Allah o Akbar. And they were young. When we are young, it is most hard time to truly believe and to stand up for truth. Most of the people start to believe in middle age including me on top of the list. In youth it is easy to get distracted. But they didn't. I lost my youth doing that. Subhan Allah. But even now if I truly believe, i have assurance through this ayah that Allah can make things easy for me by controlling His creation, like He controlled the sun for them. Subhan Allah. May Allah make us believe. Ameen.
