Hi everyone, Is it true that Prophet Zulkarnain once stopped in Central Aceh?
The story of Prophet Zulkarnain is mentioned in the Qur'an, especially in Surah Al-Kahfi (18:83-98). However, the Qur'an does not specifically mention the geographical locations that Zulkarnain passed through on his journey. Some historians and commentators argue that Zulkarnain's journey covered a wide area, but there is no concrete evidence that directly links him to Central Aceh or the surrounding areas.

In Indonesia, especially in Aceh, there are several folk tales that link the arrival of great figures such as Zulkarnain to their region. However, these are more of local legends than historical facts that can be proven.

To prove this story scientifically, further historical and archaeological research should be conducted.
And if you have an opinion from another side, please put it in the comments, maybe it will be a beautiful reference to prove further history. Thanks...
