Surah Al-Kahf Ayat 14 Tafsir (Commentry)



  • Tafseer-e-Naeemi (Ahmad Yaar Khan)
  • Ibn Kathir
  • Ala-Madudi

19. By this is meant Allah Almighty had kept them on the path of guidance and gave them the power and strength to speak in the presence of the emperor.

20. Here, the word "Dua" is used to denote worship and not to call. It does not mean we will not call on anyone besides Allah Almighty. Calls are made day and night for doing worldly and religious deeds. Hazrat Ebrahim (On whom be peace) had called upon dead animals. In every Tashahud we call upon to send the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم greetings. 

21. This means they had told Daqyanus, we will not worship idols made by you.
