Verse (18:17)

The analysis above refers to the seventeenth verse of chapter 18 (sūrat l-kahf):

Sahih International: 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.
