Surah “The Elephant”

as rendered by M. Farook Malik — 5 verses

105:1
Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the Army of the Elephant (reference is made to Abraha, a Christian king of Yaman, who attacked Mecca with the army of elephants in the year of the Prophet Muhammad’s birth)
105:2
Did He not make their treacherous plan a flop
105:3
And send against them flocks of birds
105:4
which pelted them with stones of baked clay
105:5
thus rendered them like the chewed- up chaff
