بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم تر كيف فعل ربك بأصحاب الفيل
Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?
Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the Companions of the Elephant?
Chapter 105, 5 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم تر كيف فعل ربك بأصحاب الفيل
Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?
Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the Companions of the Elephant?
ألم يجعل كيدهم في تضليل
Did He not cause their war to end in confusion,
Did He not make their treacherous plan go astray?
وأرسل عليهم طيرا أبابيل
And send down (to prey) upon them birds in flocks,
And He sent against them Flights of Birds,
ترميهم بحجارة من سجيل
Casting against them stones of baked clay,
Striking them with stones of baked clay.
فجعلهم كعصف مأكول
So He rendered them like straw eaten up?
Then did He make them like an empty field of stalks and straw, (of which the corn) has been eaten up.
