@ 1082 The story of Prophet Noah and the Ark 23:23-30
23:23 We sent Noah to his nation. 'Worship Allah, my nation,' he said, 'for you have no god except He. Will you not be cautious? '
# وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحاً إِلَى قَوْمِهِ فَقَالَ يَا قَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَهٍ غَيْرُهُ أَفَلاَ تَتَّقُونَ 23
23:24 The unbelieving assembly of his nation said, 'This is but a human like you, who desires to gain superiority over you. Had Allah willed, He could have sent down angels. We never heard of this among our ancient forefathers.
# فَقَالَ المَلأُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِن قَوْمِهِ مَا هَذَا إِلاَّ بَشَرٌ مِّثْلُكُمْ يُرِيدُ أَن يَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَوْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لأَنزَلَ مَلائِكَةً مَّا سَمِعْنَا بِهَذَا فِي آبَائِنَا الأَوَّلِينَ 24
23:25 He is nothing else except a man who is mad, so watch him for awhile.'
# إِنْ هُوَ إِلاَّ رَجُلٌ بِهِ جِنَّةٌ فَتَرَبَّصُوا بِهِ حَتَّى حِينٍ 25
23:26 He (Noah) said, 'Lord, help me, for they belie me.'
# قَالَ رَبِّ انصُرْنِي بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ 26
23:27 We said to him, 'Make the Ark under Our Eye, and Our Revelation, and then when Our command comes and the oven gushes water, take onboard a pair from every kind and your family, except him against whom the decision has already been passed. Do not address Me concerning those who have done evil; they shall be drowned.
# فَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِ أَنِ اصْنَعِ الفُلْكَ بِأَعْيُنِنَا وَوَحْيِنَا فَإِذَا جَاءَ أَمْرُنَا وَفَارَ التَّنُّورُ فَاسْلُكْ فِيهَا مِن كُلٍّ زَوْجَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَهْلَكَ إِلاَّ مَن سَبَقَ عَلَيْهِ القَوْلُ مِنْهُمْ وَلاَ تُخَاطِبْنِي فِي الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا إِنَّهُم مُّغْرَقُونَ 27
23:28 And when you and all those with you are seated in the Ark, say, 'Praise be to Allah who has saved us from the harm doing nation.'
# فَإِذَا اسْتَوَيْتَ أَنْتَ وَمَن مَّعَكَ عَلَى الفُلْكِ فَقُلِ الحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي نَجَّانَا مِنَ القَوْمِ الظَّالِمِينَ 28
23:29 And say, 'Lord, let me land a blessed landing. You are the Best of harborers.'
# وَقُل رَّبِّ أَنزِلْنِي مُنزَلاً مُّبَارَكاً وَأَنْتَ خَيْرُ المُنزِلِينَ 29
23:30 Surely, in that are signs, and surely We will put (nations) to the test.
# إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لآيَاتٍ وَإِن كُنَّا لَمُبْتَلِينَ 30
