Surah Kahf First 10 Verses with English Translation
Here’s a simple English translation of first 10 ayats for easier understanding:
- All praise is for Allah, Who has revealed to His servant the Book, and has not placed therein any crookedness.
- He has made it straight, to warn of severe punishment from Him, and to give good news to the believers who do righteous deeds, that they will have a good reward.
- In which they will remain forever.
- And to warn those who say, “Allah has taken a son.”

- Perhaps, you would worry yourself to death in grief over them, if they do not believe in this message.
- We have certainly made whatever is on earth an adornment for it, so that We may test which of them is best in deeds.
- And We will surely reduce whatever is on it to barren ground.
- Have you thought that the people of the Cave and the inscription were a wonder among Our signs?
- When the young men fled to the cave, and said, “Our Lord, grant us mercy from Yourself, and guide us in our affair rightly.”
