Surah Al-Fil — The Elephant

أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَابِ الْفِيلِ ۝ أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِي تَضْلِيلٍ ۝ وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ ۝ تَرْمِيهِمْ بِحِجَارَةٍ مِنْ سِجِّيلٍ ۝ فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَأْكُولٍ

Transcription

Alam tara kayfa fa‘ala Rabbuka bi-ashabil-fil. Alam yaj‘al kaydahum fi tadlil. Wa arsala ‘alayhim tayran ababil. Tarmihim bi-hijaratin min sijjil. Fa-ja‘alahum ka‘asfin ma’kul.

Meaning

Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with the people of the elephant? Did He not frustrate their scheme? He sent flocks of birds against them, pelting them with stones of baked clay, leaving them like chewed straw.
