الفيل

Ayahs 1–5 · Makki · 5 Ayahs · Surah 105

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

أَلَمۡ تَرَ كَيۡفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡفِيلِ 1

Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant

أَلَمۡ يَجۡعَلۡ كَيۡدَهُمۡ فِي تَضۡلِيلٖ 2

Did He not make their plan into misguidance

وَأَرۡسَلَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ طَيۡرًا أَبَابِيلَ 3

And He sent against them birds in flocks

تَرۡمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٖ مِّن سِجِّيلٖ 4

Striking them with stones of hard clay

فَجَعَلَهُمۡ كَعَصۡفٖ مَّأۡكُولِۭ 5

And He made them like eaten straw
