سُورَةُ الفِيلِ

Al-Fil

The Elephant

Surah 105,

Meccan

105:1
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْفِيلِ

ART THOU NOT aware of how thy Sustainer dealt with the Army of the Elephant?

105:2
أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِى تَضْلِيلٍۢ

Did He not utterly confound their artful planning?

105:3
وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ

Thus, He let loose upon them great swarms of flying creatures

105:4
تَرْمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٍۢ مِّن سِجِّيلٍۢ

which smote them with stone-hard blows of chastisement pre-ordained,

105:5
فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍۢ مَّأْكُولٍۭ

and caused them to become like a field of grain that has been eaten down to stubble
