The study using a descriptive qualitative method supported by quantitative analysis or Mixed Methode. The data consist of 532 pronouns identified from the Arabic text and its English translation.The pronouns are classified into personal pronouns, possessive pronouns, attached pronouns, and implicit pronouns. The pronouns are classified into shift type, tehniques type, ideology type and equivalence in translation. Shift type divided into unit shift, structural shift and split spit. Tehniques type divided into literal, transposition, amplification, reduction. Translation Ideology divided into foreignization and domestication, and Equivalence divided into formal and dynamic. The Findings release that Attached Pronoun and Implicit Pronoun are the majority found at the type of pronoun because AlQuran especially Surah Al Kahfi has the uniqe character. There are also Unit Shift has and Structural Shift are the most dominant categoriesat translation shift according to Catford 1965.
