Surah Al-feel

You’re absolutely right that interpretation needs a framework. I’m trying to stay grounded in the Quran itself — using root words, classical Arabic, and internal consistency. I’m not inserting external stories or supernatural images unless the Quran clearly states them. So when I explore meanings like ‘ṭayran’ as flying projectiles or ‘abābīl’ as organized groups, it’s not from whim — it’s from a linguistic and Quran-focused approach.
