بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
اَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِاَصْحٰبِ الْفِيْلِؕ(1)
(1) Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with the possessors of the elephant?
(1) کیا تم نے نہیں دیکھا کہ تمہارے رب نے ہاتھی والوں کے ساتھ کیا برتاؤ کیاہے
اَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِىْ تَضْلِيْلٍۙ(2)
(2) Did He not cause their war to end in confusion,
(2) کیا ان کی چال کو بے کار نہیں کردیا ہے
وَّاَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا اَبَابِيْلَۙ(3)
(3) And send down (to prey) upon them birds in flocks,
(3) اور ان پر اڑتی ہوئی ابابیل کو بھیج دیا ہے
تَرْمِيْهِمْ بِحِجَارَةٍ مِّنْ سِجِّيْلٍۙ(4)
(4) Casting against them stones of baked clay,
(4) جو انہیں کھرنجوں کی کنکریاں ماررہی تھیں
فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍ مَّاْكُوْلٍ(5)
(5) So He rendered them like straw eaten up?
(5) پھر انہوں نے ان سب کو چبائے ہوئے بھوسے کے مانند بنادیا
