    16. Two issues emerge from this: 

    1.The miracles of the saints are true. The Companions of the Cave are the saints of the Israelites. Their existence for so long, without any food or water, is a miracle. 

    2. A miracle can be enacted by a saint, even when he is asleep, as well as after his physical demise. The preservation of their bodies by sand, too, is a miracle.
