quran:105:3 –

And He sent against them birds in flocks,

and unleashed upon them swarms of birds, ˹birds˺ in droves, one following the next (it is said there is no singular form for it ˹abābīl˺, like asātīr; but some say that the singular is abūl or ibāl or ibbīl, similar ˹in constructed pattern˺ to ‘ajūl, miftāh and sikkīn),

القرآن:١٠٥:٣ –

وَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَيْرًا أَبَابِيلَ

{وأرسل عليهم طيراً أبابيل} جماعات جماعات، قيل لا واحد له كأساطير، وقيل واحده: أبول أو بال أو أبيل كعجول ومفتاح وسكين.
