Abstract:

Anyone who reads the Qur'an by trying to understand it knows very well that Allah Almighty has told a number of stories about past peoples and nations many times to be an example to people. He described some of these stories as the most beautiful story when he told them. In describing some stories, he emphasized the good behavior of the nations in question as a model and an example of the fate they suffered as a result of their bad behavior. Sometimes such historical events are described in great detail, and sometimes events are presented in a short way. The Elephant incident, which is briefly described in the Quran, is one of them. The event has historical significance as it took place shortly before the Quran's coming. Sura Elephant, which is the 105th Sura of the Quran, handles this incident very succinctly. In this study, we will explain the views and thoughts in classical and modern commentaries on how the Elephant event occurred; We will explain what the lessons and lessons to be taken from this should be, and we will also present our thoughts on the conditions under which God's help comes.
