Alam tara kayfa faAAala rabbuka biashabi alfeeli
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Hast thou not seen how thy Lord dealt with the owners of the Elephant ?
أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْفِيلِ
Chapter 105, 5 verses
Alam tara kayfa faAAala rabbuka biashabi alfeeli
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Hast thou not seen how thy Lord dealt with the owners of the Elephant ?
أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْفِيلِ
Alam yajAAal kaydahum fee tadleelin
Did He not bring their stratagem to naught,
أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِى تَضْلِيلٍ
Waarsala AAalayhim tayran ababeela
And send against them swarms of flying creatures,
وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ
Tarmeehim bihijaratin min sijjeelin
Which pelted them with stones of baked clay,
تَرْمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٍ مِّن سِجِّيلٍ
FajaAAalahum kaAAasfin makoolin
And made them like green crops devoured (by cattle) ?
فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَّأْكُولٍۭ
