The Elephant (Al-Feel)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Have you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) not seen how your Lord dealt with the Owners of the Elephant? [The elephant army which came from Yemen under the command of Abrahah Al-Ashram intending to destroy the Ka'bah at Makkah]. 1 Did He not make their guile to go astray? 2 by sending against them flocks of swallows 3 (While) you were pelting them with stones of porphyritic lava, 4 And made them like an empty field of stalks (of which the corn has been eaten up by cattle). 5
