- The web author is of the view that thousands of years ago Dhul Qarnain crossed Strait of Gibraltar and entered in to the North Atlantic Ocean.This is the place of great importance.It is the "Union of the East and the West".
- It is a "union" of two continents.The Europe and the Africa.
- It is a place where "East ends" and "West starts".
- It is a place of"Two sets of diverse civilizations".
- It is a place from where the view of the setting sun is clear.
- it is a place from where Dhul Qarnain would have viewed the sun setting in the west.
- it is place from where he did NOT move ahead.He stopped here (for the time being) as he has few other tasks to complete.
- Here he spreaded the message of Allah.(Have faith in ONE Allah).
- Here he was given "free hand". (Either to punish them, or to treat them with kindness."18:86
