[Nooh 71:11] ‘He will send down abundant rain for you from the sky.’ [Nooh 71:12] ‘And will aid you with wealth and sons, and will create gardens for you and cause rivers to flow for you.’ [Nooh 71:13] ‘What is the matter with you, that you do not desire honour from Allah?’ [Nooh 71:14] ‘Whereas it is He Who created you in different stages?’ [Nooh 71:15] ‘Do you not see how Allah has created the seven heavens atop each other?’ [Nooh 71:16] ‘And in them, has illuminated the moon, and made the sun a lamp?’ [Nooh 71:17] ‘And it is Allah Who made you grow like vegetation from the earth.’ [Nooh 71:18] ‘And He will then take you back to it, and again remove you from it.” [Nooh 71:19] ‘And it is Allah Who made the earth a bed for you.’ [Nooh 71:20] ‘So that you may tread the wide roads in it.’ ” Section 2 [Nooh 71:21] Prayed Nooh, “O my Lord! They have disobeyed me, and they follow the one whose wealth and children increase nothing for him except ruin.” [Nooh 71:22] “And they carried out a very sinister scheme.” [Nooh 71:23] “And they said, ‘Do not ever abandon your Gods – and never abandon Wadd, or Suwa - or Yaghuth or Yauq or Nasr.’ ” [Nooh 71:24] “And they have misled a large number; and (I pray that) You increase nothing for the unjust except error.” [Nooh 71:25] Because of their sins they were drowned and then put into the fire; so they did not find any supporter for themselves against Allah. (Punishment in the grave is proven by this verse.) [Nooh 71:26] And prayed Nooh, “O my Lord! Do not leave any of the disbelievers dwelling in the land.” [Nooh 71:27] “Indeed, if You spare them, they will mislead your bondmen - and their descendants, if any, will be none except the wicked, very ungrateful.”
[Nooh 71:28] “O my Lord! Forgive me, and my parents, and
the believers who are in my house, and all other Muslim men and Muslim
women; and do not increase anything for the unjust except ruin.” |
