وَإِذِ ٱعۡتَزَلۡتُمُوهُمۡ وَمَا يَعۡبُدُونَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ

It was said that when they called their king to believe in Allah, he refused, warned and threatened them. He gave them respite to think about the situation, hoping that they would return to their former religion. During that respite, they managed to escape from him and flee from persecution for the sake of their religion. In such cases, it is allowed to seclude oneself from people, but this is not prescribed in any other case, because by such seclusion one loses the benefits of congregational and Friday prayers. Ibn Kathir: 3/73.
Question: When is it allowed for a Muslim to seclude himself and flee from people for the sake of his religion?

Al-Kahf Verses 0 - 18

وَنُقَلِّبُهُمۡ ذَاتَ ٱلۡيَمِينِ وَذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِۖ

This was also to protect their bodies, for the earth naturally consumes bodies that are in direct contact with it. But by the decree of Allah, He caused them to turn over to their right and left sides, as much as was needed to prevent the earth causing damage to their bodies. Allah was able to protect them from the earth without turning them over, but He is Most Wise, and He wanted His universal laws to be consistent and for causes and effects to remain in place. Al-Saadi: 472.
Question: Allah was able to protect them from the earth without turning them over, why did He make the turn over?

Question: What do we learn from the mention of the dog in this story?
