PROPHET: NOAH - NOOH (عليه السلام)

PART: 9

THE ARK AND THE FLOOD -2

Allah says: “So he called to his Lord, saying: ‘I am overcome, so administer Your victory.’” (54:10) And said: “He said: ‘My Lord! Help me, for they accused me of falsehood.’” 

Allah says: “And because of their sins they were drowned, and cast into the Fire, and they found none apart from Allah to help them.”

All their sins were accumulated, their disbelief and obscenity in addition to the prayer of their Prophet against them.

THE RIDICULE OF HIS PEOPLE

When it reached this point, Allah commanded Noah to start constructing the Ark.It was a huge ship with no precedence.

“So he began to construct the Ark, and whenever the leaders of his people passed by him, they jeered at him…” (11:38) 

Because they could not believe that any such Flood, which could drown all people will ever happen.

 “He (Noah) said: ‘If you ridicule us now, we shall jeer at you likewise.’” (11:38). This Verse means: You are ridiculing us for making this ark and expecting a flood, but we ridicule you for not being guided, and being persistent in the disbelief and ignorance which will cause you to be drowned.

 “And you shall soon come to know who will have a chastisement which will disgrace him and who will be afflicted with the inevitable and lasting calamity.” (11:39)

THE UMMAH OF MOHAMMED ﷺ AS WITNESS ON PEOPLE OF NOAH

Disbelief and stubbornness became their characteristics in this world and likewise it will be in the Hereafter, as they denied that Noah ever came to them as Messenger. 

Abu Sa’id says: that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Noah and his people would come (on the Day of Judgement). Allah will say: ‘Did you convey My Message?  Noah will answer: ‘Yes, my Lord.’ Then Allah will ask his people: “Did he convey to you My Message?’ They Will answer: ‘No! No Prophet came to us.’ Then He will say to Noah: ‘Who could bear witness for you?’ He will reply: ‘Muhammad and his Ummah.’ So we Will bear witness that Noah conveyed the Message.” And Allah says: “And thus We have made you a justly balanced people that you will be witness over the people and the Messenger will be a witness over you.” (2:143) (Al-Bukhari 3339)
