English - Chapter 71 - Nuh

We sent Noah to his people: “Warn your people before there comes upon them a painful punishment.”

Worship God and reverence Him, and obey me

And He will forgive you of your sins, and reprieve you until a stated term. God’s term cannot be deferred once it has arrived, if you only knew.”

He said, “My Lord, I have called my people night and day

But my call added only to their flight

Whenever I called them to Your forgiveness, they thrust their fingers into their ears, and wrapped themselves in their garments, and insisted, and became more and more arrogant

Then I called them openly

Then I appealed to them publicly, and I spoke to them privately

I said, ‘Ask your Lord for forgiveness; He is Forgiving

He will let loose the sky upon you in torrents

And provide you with wealth and children, and allot for you gardens, and allot for you rivers

What is the matter with you, that you do not appreciate God’s Greatness

Although He created you in stages

Do you not realize that God created seven heavens in layers

And He set the moon in their midst for light, and He made the sun a lamp

And God germinated you from the earth like plants

Then He will return you into it, and will bring you out again

And God made the earth a spread for you

That you may travel its diverse roads.’”

Noah said, “My Lord, they have defied me, and followed him whose wealth and children increase him only in perdition.”

And they schemed outrageous schemes

And they said, “Do not give up your gods; do not give up Wadd, nor Souwa, nor Yaghoos, and Yaooq, and Nassr

They have misled many, so do not increase the wrongdoers except in confusion.”

Because of their wrongs, they were drowned, and were hurled into a Fire. They did not find apart from God any helpers

Noah said, “My Lord, do not leave of the unbelievers a single dweller on earth

If You leave them, they will mislead your servants, and will breed only wicked unbelievers

My Lord! Forgive me and my parents, and anyone who enters my home in faith, and all the believing men and believing women; and do not increase the wrongdoers except in perdition.”
