A) Ashabe Kahf:

To appreciate the accuracy of historical records advanced in the Quran, few examples are cited here below, not mentioning the detailed information on past Prophets' history:

While narrating about the duration of which 'As-habe Kahf' (the Sleepers of the Cave) stayed in the cave, the Quran says:



"So they stayed in their cave three hundred years and ADD nine..." (18:25)

The wording is quite significant. The verse does not say "three hundred and nine years" but uses the apparently cumbersome wording of "three hundred years and add nine". Why add nine? This is because their stay was 300 years if one used the solar calendar and 309 years by the lunar calendar.The lunar year is 11 days shorter. Now 11 days times 300 years divided by 365 years is 9 years.
