In the Name of Allâh, the Most
Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
1. あなたの主が，象の仲間に，どう対処なされたか，知らなかったのか。
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. かれは，かれらの計略を壊滅させられたではないか。
Did He not make their plot go astray?
3. かれらの上に群れなす数多の鳥を遣わされ，
And sent against them birds, in flocks,
4. 焼き土の礫を投げ付けさせて，
Striking them with stones of Sijjîl.
5. 食い荒らされた藁屑のようになされた。
And made them like an empty field of stalks (of which the corn has been eaten up by cattle).[]
