The story in Surah Al-Qalam from the Qur’an and authentic Hadith only, without Israiliyyat — together with the story of the garden owner whose garden was watered by a cloud because he gave in charity. “Perhaps our Lord will substitute for us one better than it.”
“Perhaps our Lord will substitute for us [one] better than it. Indeed, we are toward our Lord desirous.”

The story of the owners of the garden — the verses of Surah Al-Qalam 68:17–33 and Al-Kahf 18:23–24 with the Sahih International translation, a flow chart of the story and a comparison with the garden owner watered by a cloud, authentic Hadith with linked chains of narration, commentary of trusted scholars, a table of Israiliyyat, and an honest archaeological note.
