Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And when ye withdraw from them) and when you leave them and their religion (and that which they worship) of idols beside Allah, therefore worship none (except Allah, then seek refuge in the Cave) enter this Cave; (your Lord will spread for you) He will bestow upon you (of His mercy) of His blessings (and will prepare for you a pillow in your plight) He will prepare for you that which will be kind towards you tomorrow. All this was said by the group of youth.
