Let’s Read Surah Kahf Today (Friday) — Deceptions

People today are deeply distracted by the glitter of the dunya—chasing wealth, fame, appearances, and fleeting pleasures—often at the expense of their faith, family, and purpose. This heedlessness reflects the very fitnah (trial) of Dajjal, who represents deception and the illusion of control and power. Surah Al-Kahf, which the Prophet ﷺ encouraged us to recite weekly for protection from Dajjal, serves as a powerful reminder of the transient nature of this world. Each of its stories—the People of the Cave, the man with two gardens, Musa and Khidr, and Dhul-Qarnayn—warns against being deceived by appearances, pride, or worldly status. In a time when distractions are more intense than ever, anchoring ourselves in Surah Al-Kahf renews our spiritual focus and protects our hearts from the false promises of this dunya.
