سورة الفيل

The Elephant5 verses Meccan

Translated by A. J. Arberry

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

1

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَابِ الْفِيلِ

Hast thou not seen how thy Lord did with the Men of the Elephant?

2

أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِي تَضْلِيلٍ

Did He not make their guile to go astray?

3

وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ

And He loosed upon them birds in flights,

4

تَرْمِيهِمْ بِحِجَارَةٍ مِنْ سِجِّيلٍ

hurling against them stones of baked clay

5

فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَأْكُولٍ

and He made them like green blades devoured.
