In the Name
of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
[71.1]
Surely We sent Nuh to his people, saying: Warn your people before there come upon them a
painful chastisement.
[71.2] He
said: O my people! Surely I am a plain warner to you:
[71.3] That
you should serve Allah and be careful of (your duty to) Him and obey me:
[71.4] 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!
[71.5] He
said: O my Lord! surely I have called my people by night and by day!
[71.6] But
my call has only made them flee the more:
[71.7] And
whenever I have called them that Thou may forgive them, they put their fingers in their
ears, cover themselves with their garments, and persist and are puffed up with pride:
[71.8] Then
surely I called to them aloud:
[71.9] Then
surely I spoke to them in public and I spoke to them in secret:
[71.10] Then
I said, Ask forgiveness of your Lord, surely He is the most Forgiving:
[71.11] He
will send down upon you the cloud, pouring down abundance of rain:
[71.12] And
help you with wealth and sons, and make for you gardens, and make for you rivers.
[71.13] What
is the matter with you that you fear not the greatness of Allah?
[71.14] And
indeed He has created you through various grades:
[71.15] Do
you not see how Allah has created the seven heavens one above another,
[71.16] And
made the moon therein a light, and made the sun a lamp?
[71.17] And
Allah has made you grow out of the earth as a growth:
[71.18] Then
He returns you to it, then will He bring you forth a (new) bringing forth:
[71.19] And
Allah has made for you the earth a wide expanse,
[71.20] That
you may go along therein in wide paths.
[71.21] Nuh
said: My Lord! surely they have disobeyed me and followed him whose wealth and children
have added to him nothing but loss.
[71.22] And
they have planned a very great plan.
[71.23] And
they say: By no means leave your gods, nor leave Wadd, nor Suwa; nor Yaghus, and Yauq and
Nasr.
[71.24] And
indeed they have led astray many, and do not increase the unjust in aught but error.
[71.25]
Because of their wrongs they were drowned, then made to enter fire, so they did not find
any helpers besides Allah.
[71.26] And
Nuh said: My Lord! leave not upon the land any dweller from among the unbelievers:
[71.27] For
surely if Thou leave them they will lead astray Thy servants, and will not beget any but
immoral, ungrateful (children);
[71.28] 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!
