Today's Ayah No 95 is continuation of conversation between Zulqarnain and the nation he came across in his third journey. In previous Ayah 94, the nation complained about mischief of Gog Mgog (یاجوج ماجوج) in their land and offered Zulqarnain to pay if he could build a barrier to stop them.
In reply, Zulqarnain showed contentment over what his Lord had ordained him to do. Note that Gog Mgog not even lived on their land rather they would descend from above through possibly a portal which needed to be closed down. So he asked them to assist him with full strength to build that barrier.
Interestingly, in this Ayah word ردما has been used which has been translated as 'Dam' in most translations. In any case, they needed protection against onslaught of Gog Mgog and a dam would serve as a barrier to prevent descending and ascension to their land. It should give us enough teason to believe that Gog Mgog do not put up in our land as well. They are most likely to come down from above through portals. During extreme duress, for the protection of Ahle Emaan against dajjal and Gog Mgog, recitation of Al Kahf at the right place & at the right time may open up portals to safety, reassuring that Al Kahf contains secret keys to protection near the end of times.
Only Allah knows the whole Truth.
