Surah “The Elephant”

as rendered by Thomas Cleary — 5 verses

105:1
Have you not seen what your Lord did to those with the elephants?
105:2
Did God not foil their scheme,
105:3
sending flocks of birds against them,
105:4
bombarding them with stones of baked clay?
105:5
That made them like !!tripped cornstalks whose fruits have been consumed.
