Q283 It is mentioned in verse (105:1): “Did you not see how your Lord dealt with the people of the elephant?” Had the incident of the people of the elephant not taken place fifty days prior to the birth of the holy Prophet? Why is there such a wisdom-filled allusion in this verse, as if the Prophet had himself witnessed the destruction of the people of the elephant?
