StillProud, is the the Quran story of the Cave of Darkness?:

Summarising the Relevant Events of the Story to Achieve Its Aim:

One finds that the Qur'an neither presents the stories as narrative history nor brings the chronological orders of events because it is far from the objective the Qur'an is trying to achieve. An example of this is the story of the Dwellers of the Cave (As-habul Kahf) which the Qur'an narrates to us in surah Al-Kahf. It is about a group of young men whom Allah guided to faith and who escaped from their enemies because they might have forced them to revert to disbelief. The Qur'an does not mention their names, how many they were, or what was their nation or tribe.
