MORAL:TRIAL OF POWER
In the middle Allah mentions Iblees as the one who stirs these trials:
Behold! We said to the angels “Bow down to Adam”: they bowed down except Iblis. He was one of the Jinns, and he broke the Command of his Lord. Will ye then take him and his progeny as protectors rather than Me? And they are enemies to you! Evil would be the exchange for the wrongdoers!
Now let us see what’s the relationship between Surat Al-Kahf and the Dajjal (Anti-Christ)?
Dajjal will appear before Day of Judgement with the 4 trials:
***He’ll ask people to worship him and not Allah:
Trial of Faith .
***He’ll be given powers to start/stop rain and tempt people with his wealth:
Trial of with his wealth. .
***He’ll trial people with the “knowledge” and news he gives them:
Trial of Knowledge .
He’ll control huge parts of the Earth.
Trial of Power .
How to survive these trials? The answers are in Surat Al-Kahf ..
1: Good companionship --> Surat Al-Kahf, verse 28
2 : Knowing the Truth of this World -->Surat Al-Kahf, verse 45
3: Humbleness -->Surat Al-Kahf, verse 69
