The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was born in the Year of the Elephant (Aam al-Feel), which corresponds to approximately 570 CE. This year is named after the event when Abraha, the governor of Yemen, attempted to destroy the Kaaba using elephants.

Allah protected the Kaaba by sending a flock of birds (Ababeel) that pelted the invaders with stones, as described in Surah Al-Feel (105:1-5).
