The story of the owners of the elephant
Who are the owners of the elephant? What is their story? What is God's reward for them? How can we take the lesson from this story ?? In the old days, Yemen had a king named Zo Nawas. This king persecuted the Christians of Najran by burning them. One of these Christians came to the name of Dos. Dos went to the Roman Caesar, who was a Christian, but to the distance between the Romans and Yemen, The man (dos) to the Negus ruler of Abyssinia to take revenge for the Christians of their murderer (Zoas). When the Negus heard the story, his anger spread and he equipped a great army to go to Yemen under the leadership of Ariat and Abraha. The army of Najashi defeated the leader of Yemen and became a ruler of Yemen. After a while, Abraha turned on Ariat, He is the ruler of Yemen, and the Negus was angry with him and decided to take power from him, but (Abraha) declared his surrender and loyalty to the Negus, he forgave him and kept him governor of Yemen. In order to prove (Abraha) loyalty to the Najashi built a large church and there is no parallel on the face of the earth, to be hosted by the people of the island instead of the Kaaba, and sent (Abraha) delegations to the Arabian Peninsula to invite them to the pilgrimage in the church built by the people of the Arabian Peninsula rejected it, That a group of Arabs went to the church and polluted it with filth. The anger of Abraha of the Arabs refused and decided to demolish the Kaaba, and equipped a great army and headed to Mecca riding the elephant, and when the army approached from Mecca sold (Abraha) who looted the funds of Mecca and sent an messenger to the great people of Mecca and said to him: Abraha the king of Yemen invites you. I did not come to war, but I came to demolish this house, if you surrendered, I injected your blood. And the messenger (Abraha) came to Abd al-Muttalib. Abd al-Muttalib said to him: We have no power to inform you, and the house protects you. He went back to his father to tell his father that a black cloud was heading from the Red Sea to the land of Mecca, and the elephant that he was riding (Abraha) refused to move and advance Forward, and when they guide him to the right he heads north. And then came birds coming from the sea, such as hooks and carrying a stone in her beak and two legs in her legs, and then the birds threw the stones that they carry on the army of Abraha, and it was said: The stone was falling on the man of them Vtjrkh and emerge from the other side. And he died (of Abraha). He was wounded by a stone and died in Sana'a. In this year (the year of the elephant) was born the Prophet - peace be upon him
