أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْفِيلِ ١
Kwani hukuona jinsi Mola wako Mlezi alivyo watenda wale wenye tembo?
Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
Maana: "Tembo"
أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِأَصْحَٰبِ ٱلْفِيلِ ١
Kwani hukuona jinsi Mola wako Mlezi alivyo watenda wale wenye tembo?
Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
أَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ كَيْدَهُمْ فِى تَضْلِيلٍۢ ٢
Kwani hakujaalia vitimbi vyao kuharibika?
Did He not make their plan into misguidance?
وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ ٣
Na akawapelekea ndege makundi kwa makundi,
And He sent against them birds in flocks,
تَرْمِيهِم بِحِجَارَةٍۢ مِّن سِجِّيلٍۢ ٤
Wakiwatupia mawe ya udongo wa Motoni,
Striking them with stones of hard clay,
فَجَعَلَهُمْ كَعَصْفٍۢ مَّأْكُولٍۭ ٥
Akawafanya kama majani yaliyo liwa!
And He made them like eaten straw.
