Surah 105: Al Fil

| আমরা সবসময় মনে রাখি | We Always Remember |​

  • যখন একজন মানুষ মারা যায়, তার সব কাজ শেষ হয়ে যায় , তিনটি ব্যতিক্রম ছাড়া: সদকা জারিয়া (চলমান দান) , এমন জ্ঞান যা থেকে উপকার পাওয়া যায়, এবং একটি সৎ সন্তান যে তার জন্য দোয়া করে । | মুহাম্মদ (সাঃ) ; হাদিস - সহিহ মুসলিম | When a person dies, his works end, except for three: ongoing charity, knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him. | Prophet Mohammed (PBUH); Hadith - Sahih Muslim |

  • যে ব্যক্তি ভাল কাজের জন্য সুপারিশ করবে, তার জন্য তাতে (সাওয়াবের) অংশ আছে এবং যে মন্দ কাজের জন্য সুপারিশ করবে, তার জন্য তাতে অংশ আছে । আর আল্লাহ সব কিছুর উপর নজর রাখেন । | সূরাঃ ৪ , আন-নিসা , আয়াতঃ : ৮৫ | Whoever intercedes for a good cause will have a reward therefrom; and whoever intercedes for an evil cause will have a burden therefrom. And ever is Allah, over all things, a Keeper. | Surah 4 , An-Nisa , Verse: 85 |

(The Elephant)​

Surah Al-Fil, the 105th chapter of the Quran, was revealed in Makkah and recounts a significant historical event known as the Year of the Elephant. This event took place in 570 AD, the same year that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was born. The story centers around an army led by Abraha, the ruler of Yemen, who marched towards Makkah with the intention of destroying the Kaaba, the sacred house of worship.

Abraha’s army was notable for its use of elephants, which symbolized their might and strength. However, as they approached Makkah, Allah intervened to protect His House. He sent flocks of birds, known as the Ababil, carrying small stones to defeat the army. This event showcased Allah’s power and mercy, demonstrating that no one can harm what He protects.

The Surah serves as a reminder of Allah’s protection over the Kaaba and His ability to thwart those who plot against His will. It emphasizes the futility of opposing Allah and highlights His ultimate control over all affairs

পরম দয়ালু, পরম মেহেরবান, আল্লাহর নামে।

  2. তিনি কি তাদের চক্রান্ত ব্যর্থ করে দেননি?
  3. তিনি তাদের বিরুদ্ধে পাঠিয়েছিলেন ঝাঁকে ঝাঁকে পাখী।
  4. যারা তাদের উপর পাথরের কাঁকর নিক্ষেপ করেছিল।
  5. অতঃপর তিনি তাদেরকে করে দিলেন ভক্ষিত তৃণ-ভুষির মত।
