Yesterday I spoke to you guys about some literary connections and some things we might learn by drawing a connection between

Dhunqar Nain's story or actually Musa Ali Salam's story and the story of the youth of the cave today

We're going to take the next step like I said yesterday

Which is going to be

Ashab ul-Kahaf and some things we can make a possible connection with and draw a contrast in comparison with

From the story of Dhunqar Nain

First thing to note is these are both on the tail ends meaning the first story in the Surah is

Ashab ul-Kahaf and the final story in the Surah is

Dhunqar Nain so we're comparing the first and the last story

So this is something they kind of already have in common is that they are on the ends by their ends of the Surah

This time instead of categorizing things by word connections

You know by literal words that occur again

There's not as much of that in these two except for a couple of them

So instead of bringing that up into different categories

I'm just going to run through a number of comparisons and contrast

Starting with the most glaring one with al-Shamsa i-Dat al-A'at

Taza wa-Rul-A'Nqaf i-Him-Dat al-Yamin

But i-Dat al-Rabat al-Dakrid al-Hum-Dat al-Shimal

When you see you could see the sun when it rises it bypasses them

Towards the right and when it's setting it cuts across from them towards the west

Or so so the idea there
