It's the year 571. Mecca is close. Abraha, the Governor of Yemen in Abyssinia, is marching towards Mecca to destroy the Kaaba. The elephants, which are the symbol of the army's glory, are shaking the heavens and the earth.
Abraha and his army didn't reach Mecca. They came to destroy the house of Allah, they turned into a huge army destroyed by the stones thrown by tiny birds. Those who saw them say they were like eaten crop leaves. People still get the chills when they drive through that area. They want to get away from there as soon as possible. A few months passed since the elephant incident. The respect the people of Mecca showed to the harem was strengthened. Now the notables of Mecca have gathered in Dar al- Nadwah and are holding a meeting.
