أَلَمۡ تَرَ كَيۡفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡفِيلِ ١
Have you not regarded how your Lord dealt with the army of the elephants?
بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
أَلَمۡ تَرَ كَيۡفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡفِيلِ ١
Have you not regarded how your Lord dealt with the army of the elephants?
أَلَمۡ يَجۡعَلۡ كَيۡدَهُمۡ فِي تَضۡلِيلٖ ٢
Did He not make their stratagems go awry,
وَأَرۡسَلَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ طَيۡرًا أَبَابِيلَ ٣
and send against them flocks of birds
تَرۡمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٖ مِّن سِجِّيلٖ ٤
pelting them with stones of shale,
فَجَعَلَهُمۡ كَعَصۡفٖ مَّأۡكُولِۭ ٥
thus making them like chewed-up straw?
