The Holy Qur'an


071. Nuh

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
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!
S.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!
