1. * |
Surely We sent Nuh to his people, saying: Warn your people before there come upon them a painful chastisement.
|
|
2. * |
He said: O my people! Surely I am a plain warner to you:
|
|
3. * |
That you should serve Allah and be careful of (your duty to) Him and obey me:
|
|
4. * |
He will forgive you some of your faults and grant you a delay to an appointed term; surely the term of Allah when it comes is not postponed; did you but know!
|
|
5. * |
He said: O my Lord! surely I have called my people by night and by day!
|
|
6. * |
But my call has only made them flee the more:
|
|
7. * |
And whenever I have called them that Thou mayest forgive them, they put their fingers in their ears, cover themselves with their garments, and persist and are puffed up with pride:
|
|
8. * |
Then surely I called to them aloud:
|
|
9. * |
Then surely I spoke to them in public and I spoke to them in secret:
|
|
10. * |
Then I said, Ask forgiveness of your Lord, surely He is the most Forgiving:
|
|
11. * |
He will send down upon you the cloud, pouring down abundance of rain:
|
|
12. * |
And help you with wealth and sons, and make for you gardens, and make for you rivers.
|
|
13. * |
What is the matter with you that you fear not the greatness of Allah?
|
|
14. * |
And indeed He has created you through various grades:
|
|
15. * |
Do you not see how Allah has created the seven heavens ,~ one above another,
|
|
16. * |
And made the moon therein a light, and made the sun a lamp?
|
|
17. * |
And Allah has made you grow out of the earth as a growth:
|
|
18. * |
Then He returns you to it, then will He bring you forth a (new) bringing forth:
|
|
19. * |
And Allah has made for you the earth a wide expanse,
|
|
20. * |
That you may go along therein in wide paths.
|
|
21. * |
Nuh said: My Lord! surely they have disobeyed me and followed him whose wealth and children have added to him nothing but loss.
|
|
22. * |
And they have planned a very great plan.
|
|
23. * |
And they say: By no means leave your gods, nor leave Wadd, nor Suwa; nor Yaghus, and Yauq and Nasr.
|
|
24. * |
And indeed they have led astray many, and do not increase the unjust in aught but error.
|
|
25. * |
Because of their wrongs they were drowned, then made to enter fire, so they did not find any helpers besides Allah.
|
|
26. * |
And Nuh said: My Lord! leave not upon the land any dweller from among the unbelievers:
|
|
27. * |
For surely if Thou leave them they will lead astray Thy servants, and will not beget any but immoral, ungrateful (children)
|
|
28. * |
My Lord! forgive me and my parents and him who enters my house believing, and the believing men and the believing women; and do not increase the unjust in aught but destruction!
