the Two-horned One

In the name of Allah , most Gracious, most Merciful.

83. They ask thee concerning the Two-horned One. Say: "I will rehearse to you something of his story."

84. Verily God established his power on earth, and God gave him the ways and the means to all ends.

85. One way he followed.

86. Until, when he reached the setting of the sun,he found it set in a spring of murky water: near it he found a people: God said: "O Two-horned One! Either to punish them, or to treat them with kindness."

87. He said:"Whoever does wrong, him shall we punish; then shall he be sent back to his Lord; and God will punish him with a punishment unheard of.

88. "But he who believes, and works righteousness- he shall have a goodly reward, and easy will be his task as we order it by our command."

The Cave 18:83-88

I will rehearse to you something of his story.

To my understanding, the Two-horned One was a conqueror whom Allah had blessed with power.

Allah granted him the freedom to either punish or treat with kindness the people he came across, or conquered.

In this case, he chose to punish the wrongdoers,and defer final judgement to Allah. He chose to reward the ones who had faith and did good deeds.
