I often hear this claim from Non Muslim Youtubers. Several from they said: Surah Al-Kahfi is fiction story. And, Ashabul Kahfi never exist at the world. At this article, we will discuss archaeological proof that supported story at Surah Al-Kahfi about several youngers who sleeps at the cave.  But, before this, please subscribe my blog and read this article until end for get complete information.

And, for Non-Muslims, you must know, this story not only exist at Islamic Literature. The story also exist at Christian Literature. It is exist at the notes Gregory Of Tours. And, same with Islamic Literature, the story telled several youngers that fell asleep at the cave after run from Emperor Decius , from Roman Empire. And Decius ruled from 249-251 AD. Decius. Emperor Decius torture Propeth Isa s followers at this city. And, at Roman Curch, they  commemorate at 27 July.  Several youngers, are Propeth Isa s followers and they escaped to cave from this cruel king. According Book Al-Bidayah Wa an-Nihayah , the name of Roman Emperor is Diqyanus ( Arabisation from Decius)  and they hide at the cave.

According Christian Literature, they wake up at age of Emperor Theodosius ruled Roman Empire, and Emperor Theodosius is Propeth Isa s followers. They die at age of Theodosius after wake up and Theodosius build prayer place at their cave. According Palestinian Historian,  Jihad Turbani, Emperor Constantinus II Of Roman Empire also became Propeth Isa s followers because preach from one of Propeth Isa Alaihissalam s preacher, Arius.

Ok, if Non Muslim Youtuber said: Islam imitated from Christian Fiction Story. Ok, we will discuss about archaeological proof that supported this story. This archaeological proof, give us a proof, the story is real story and not only legend/ mithology.

Several Rasulullah Shallahu Alaihi Wasallam s shahaba , was find several bones from several youngers who sleep at the cave. At 1963 AD, an Jordanian Archaeolog, Rafiq Wafa Ad-Dujany find cave that became several younger s hideplace. It is located at Sehab, 13 KM from City Of Amman, Jordan.  Rafiq also find inscription at cave s walls that contained about  Allah Subhanahuwataala s oneness. And , it is mark they are monotheist, according Propeth Isa s teaching. Rafiq also find remnant of prayer place from this age, such as story at the Koran Surah Al-Kahfi. It is strong proof, that QS.Al-Kahfi is real story that ever happened at the past.  If  Surah Al-Kahfi contained fiction story, maybe dont finded many archaeological proof that supported narration from this surah.
