       _Episode 2_
       The reason behind the revelation of these verses and those
       relating the story of Dhul-Qarnain was cited by Muhammad Ibn
       Ishaq in his biography of the Prophet: that the people of
       Quraish sent to the Jews asking them for things to test the
       Prophet (Peace be upon him) with. The Jews said: ask him about a
       group of people who disappeared in the past and none has any
       knowledge about them; about a man who traveled through the land;
       and about Ar-Ruh                          (the Spirit).
       Thereupon, Almighty Allah revealed His Statement, {And they ask
       you (0 Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) concerning the Ruh (the
       Spirit); Say: "The Ruh (the Spirit) is one of the things, the
       knowledge of which is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you
       (mankind) have been given only a little"} (Al-Isra', 85) and,
       {And they ask you about Dhul-Qarnain. Say (0 Muhammad (Peace be
       upon him)): "I shall recite to  you something of his story"}
       (Al-Kahf, 83) and here He says: {Do you  think that the people
       of the Cave and "Ar-Raqim" the Inscription (the news or the
       names of the people of the Cave) were a wonder among Our
       Signs?}, i.e. they are not more amazing than what We have given
       you of the great news, astonishing signs and gigantic wonders.
       However, a cave is a hole in the mountain. Mentioned Shu' aib
       Al-Jiba'i: their cave was called "Haizam". As for "Ar-Raqim",
       Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) said: I do not know
       what it means! Some scholars such as Ibn Jarir and others said:
       it is the recordwhere their news and names are written
       thereafter. It was also said: it is the name of the mountain
       their cave was in. However, many other things were said
       pertaining to this, but the knowledge thereof rests only with
       Allah the Almighty Who knows the best! Shu'aib Al-Jiba'i said:
       their dog was called "Himran".
