1	Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the Companions of the Elephant? بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألم تر كيف فعل ربك بأصحاب الفيل Alam tara kaifa fa’ala rabbuka bi ashaabil feel
2	Did He not make their treacherous plan go astray? ألم يجعل كيدهم في تضليل Alam yaj’al kai dahum fee tad leel
3	And He sent against them Flights of Birds, وأرسل عليهم طيرا أبابيل Wa arsala ‘alaihim tairan abaabeel
4	Striking them with stones of baked clay. ترميهم بحجارة من سجيل Tar meehim bi hi jaaratim min sij jeel
5	Then did He make them like an empty field of stalks and straw, (of which the corn) has been eaten up. فجعلهم كعصف مأكول Faja ‘alahum ka’asfim m’akool
