What happened to Mahmood, the elephant of Abraha who went to destroy the Ka'bah.

Answer

We only are aware that he was saved. This elephant had refused to proceed to the Ka'bah. Despite all the vigourous attempts to steer it towards the destruction of the Ka'bah, it resolutely refused to budge. It simply sat down, but when its head was turned in another direction, it would get up and move in that direction away from the Ka'bah. We are not aware of its ultimate fate. Perhaps some other reader could enlighten us. We simply lack the time to research the kutub for this issue.
