سورة الفيل

The Elephant

Al-Fil | Sura # 105 | 5 verses | Makkan

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate and Most Merciful

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَابِ الْفِيلِ١

105:1 Have you not seen (O Prophet  ﷺ) how your Lord dealt with the Army of the Elephant?

An elephant army came under the command of Abraha, the Abysinian Governor of Yemen, who wanted to destroy the Ka’ba in Makkah in the year of Prophet’s (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم) birth. But he and his army was destroyed by Allah (عَزَّ وَجَلَّ). Surah al-Feel is about them.

أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِي تَضْلِيلٍ٢

105:2 Did He (Allah) not make their (evil) plans go awry (in humiliation)?

وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ٣

105:3 And He sent against them birds in flocks,

تَرْمِيهِمْ بِحِجَارَةٍ مِنْ سِجِّيلٍ٤

105:4 throwing upon them stones of baked clay.

فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَأْكُولٍ٥

105:5 Thus, He turned them into a chewed out chaff.
