Surah 105 / 114 · 5 verses · Meccan
الفِيلِ
Al-Fil
The Elephant
Listen to the recitation
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
Hast thou not seen how thy Lord dealt with the owners of the Elephant?
أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْفِيلِ
Did He not bring their stratagem to naught,
أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِى تَضْلِيلٍۢ
And send against them swarms of flying creatures,
وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ
Which pelted them with stones of baked clay,
تَرْمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٍۢ مِّن سِجِّيلٍۢ
And made them like green crops devoured (by cattle)?
فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍۢ مَّأْكُولٍۭ
