Notes
One end of the amulet has a hilya ornament, which is a distinctive physical description of the Prophet Muhammad. Above, there is a mention of the Companions of the Cave without mentioning their names in Surat Al-Kahf (18). The other part is engraved with Qur’anic verses from Surat Al-Anbiya (21), part of verse 87, Surat Al-Saff (61), part of verse 13, Al-Ikhlas (122), and Ayat Al-Kursi (Surat Al-Baqarah / 2 - verse 255).
