Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with the People of the Elephant?

Has He not turned their plan into nullity?

And He sent upon them flying birds in flocks,

throwing upon them stones of baked clay,

and thus He turned them into an eaten-up chaff.

Because of the familiarity of the Quraish,

that is, their familiarity with the trips of winter and summer,

they must worship the Lord of this House,

who gave them food against hunger, and gave them security against fear.

Have you seen him who denies the Requital?

So, he is the one who pushes away the orphan,

and does not persuade (others) to feed the needy.

So, Woe to those performers of Salāh,

who are neglectful of their Salāh,

who (do good only to) show off,

and refuse (to give even) small gifts.

(O Prophet,) surely We have given to you Al-Kauthar.

So, offer Salāh (prayer) to your Lord, and sacrifice.

Surely it is your enemy whose traces are cut off.
