Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?
Alam tara kayfa faAAala rabbuka biashabi alfeeli
Chapter 105, 5 verses
Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?
Alam tara kayfa faAAala rabbuka biashabi alfeeli
Did He not make their plan into misguidance?
Did He not cause their war to end in confusion,
Alam yajAAal kaydahum fee tadleelin
And He sent against them birds in flocks,
And send down (to prey) upon them birds in flocks,
Waarsala AAalayhim tayran ababeela
Striking them with stones of hard clay,
Casting against them stones of baked clay,
Tarmeehim bihijaratin min sijjeelin
And He made them like eaten straw.
So He rendered them like straw eaten up?
FajaAAalahum kaAAasfin makoolin
