it down upon you if He will; you will never frustrate Him."
Noah had been very patient indeed, he had worked tirelessly among his
people and lived among them for 950 years, but his followers remained but a
handful. Then one day he was so sad that he complained to Allah saying, "My
Lord, night and day I have called my people but my call has only increased
them in running away. Each time I called them so that You might forgive
them, they thrust their fingers in their ears and wrapped themselves in their
garments, and persisted becoming very proud. I called them clearly, and
indeed I spoke to them both publicly and in secret saying, 'Ask for forgiveness
of your Lord, surely, He is the Forgiver.'"
