The Story of the People of the Cave

In a Hadith from the book of Al Tirmidhi, the Holy Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is said to have encouraged Muslims to read Surah Al-Kahf (Chapter 18) of the Holy Quran every Friday. In this khutba, we look at the first of four stories from this chapter, about a group of young men that found their lives in danger because they believed in One God. How did they deal with this trial of faith, and what can we learn from their story? These are some of the questions explored here.
