Let’s Read Surah Kahf Today (Friday) ~The Best Gift For Your Children Is Being Righteous Parents ~

وَأَمَّا ٱلْجِدَارُ فَكَانَ لِغُلَٰمَيْنِ يَتِيمَيْنِ فِى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَكَانَ تَحْتَهُۥ كَنزٌ لَّهُمَا وَكَانَ أَبُوهُمَا صَٰلِحًا فَأَرَادَ رَبُّكَ أَن يَبْلُغَآ أَشُدَّهُمَا وَيَسْتَخْرِجَا كَنزَهُمَا رَحْمَةً

“And as for the wall, it belonged to two orphan boys in the city, and there was beneath it a treasure for them, and their father had been righteous. So your Lord intended that they reach maturity and extract their treasure, as a mercy from your Lord.” [Quran, Al Kahf 18:82]

This ayah carries a hint that arrangements were made to have the buried treasure secured for the orphan children through al-Khidir because the father of the orphan children was a pious man, dear in the sight of Allah. It was to grant his wish and to bring benefit to his children that Allah made this arrangement. Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir says: 'It is because of the piety and righteousness of a servant of His that Allah protects his children.' (Mazhari) This ayah also indicates that people too should show consideration and affection for the children of the learned and the pious - unless, of course, they were to succumb to disbelief and sin. (Mazhari]
