The Cave
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE
[18:84]
Behold, We established him securely on earth, and endowed him with [the knowledge of] the right means to achieve anything [that he might set out to achieve];


* v.84 : According to Ibn ‘Abbās, Mujāhid, Sa‘īd ibn Jubayr, ‘Ikrimah, Qatādah, and Ad-Iahhāk (all of them quoted by Ibn Kathīr), the term sabab – lit., “a means to achieve [anything]” – denotes, in this context, the knowledge of the right means for the achievement of a particular end.
