  (It was recorded that Abraha went to attack Caaba in Mecca with a company of army and with about one dozen elephants and he rode on the largest elephant. When they reached a place called Mughommas, he arranged a strategy to attack Mecca and to push down the Caaba with his elephants. Then they advanced further untill they reach a place between Mudzdalifah and Mina, those elephants stopped moving. When their mahouts directed them to move to the left, they moved to the right, and when directed to go to the right, they went to the left. When they were directed towards Mecca, they all would sit down on the ground refusing to advance towards Mecca, as if they knew it was wrong to attack Mecca. During the chaos, a flock of birds, (it was said, they were like "burung pipit/sparrows" clutching a stone of burnt clay (definitely from the Hell) in each of their foot. It was said that on each stone inscribed a name), came and hurled the stones to those persons whose names were written on the stones (with the guidance of the Angels, of course,). Not all were hit, the whole army then scattered away running for their lives. Those who were hit, the body became rotted away and broken into small pieces. Abraha was also being hit, he ran home to his palace in Sanaa, Yaman. His fingers fell off, one after the other . His chest split open and his inner organs ..... (a very sorry sight) and he passed away in agony.)
صدق الله العظيم = True were the Words of Allah the Greatest.
   (And a bout fifty days after this incident, the Prophet s.a.w. was born.).
Insya Allah, we shall recite verse 106 Qureisy in our next session.
Until then, have a nice weekend. See you all Quran Lovers soon.
