Meanings

1 Have you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) not seen how your Lord dealt with the Owners of the Elephant? [The elephant army which came from Yemen under the command of Abrahah Al-Ashram intending to destroy the Ka'bah at Makkah].
2 Did He not make their plot go astray?
3 And sent against them birds, in flocks,
4 Striking them with stones of Sijjil.
5 And made them like an empty field of stalks (of which the corn has been eaten up by cattle).

Translation:Noble Quran[1], 1999


1 Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
2 Did He not make their plan into misguidance?
3 And He sent against them birds in flocks,
4 Striking them with stones of hard clay,
5 And He made them like eaten straw.

Translation:Saheeh International[2], 1997


1 Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the Companions of the Elephant?
2 Did He not make their treacherous plan go astray?
3 And He sent against them Flights of Birds,
4 Striking them with stones of baked clay.
5 Then did He make them like an empty field of stalks and straw, (of which the corn) has been eaten up.

Translation:Yusuf Ali[3], 1934


1 Hast thou not seen how thy Lord dealt with the owners of the Elephant?
2 Did He not bring their stratagem to naught,
3 And send against them swarms of flying creatures,
4 Which pelted them with stones of baked clay,
5 And made them like green crops devoured (by cattle)?
