What is Aam-ul-feel?

Answer 1

Aam-ul-Feel, or the "Year of the Elephant," refers to the year 570 CE in the Islamic calendar, notable for the attempted invasion of Mecca by Abraha, the ruler of Yemen, who sought to destroy the Kaaba. His army included war elephants, which were significant in that era. The event is considered pivotal in Islamic history as it preceded the birth of the Prophet Muhammad. It is commemorated for its miraculous defense of the Kaaba, as the invaders were ultimately thwarted.
