Al-Kahf (The Cave)
Verse 11
Translation:
11. Then We drew (a veil) over their ears for a number of years in the cave (so that they heard not):
Notes (Tafseer):
2339. Drew (a veil) over their ears: i.e., sealed their ears, so that they heard nothing. As they were in the Cave they saw nothing. So they were completely cut off from the outer world. It was as if they had died, with their knowledge and ideas remaining at the point of time when they had entered the Cave. It is as if a watch stops at the exact moment of some accident, and any one taking it up afterwards can precisely fix the time of the accident.
