In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Verily, We sent Nūh (Noah) to his people (Saying): "Warn your people before there comes to them a painful torment." (1)
He said: "O my people! Verily, I am a plain warner to you, (2)
That you should worship Allāh (Alone), be dutiful to Him, and obey me, (3)
He (Allāh) will forgive you of your sins and respite you to an appointed term. Verily, the term of Allāh when it comes, cannot be delayed, if you but knew.(4)
He said: "O my Lord! Verily, I have called my people night and day (i.e. secretly and openly to accept the doctrine of Islāmic Monotheism)[] , (5)
"But all my calling added nothing but to (their) flight (from the truth) (6)
And verily, every time I called unto them that You might forgive them, they thrust their fingers into their ears, covered themselves up with their garments, and persisted (in their refusal), and magnified themselves in pride. (7)
Then verily, I called to them openly (aloud); (8)
Then verily, I proclaimed to them in public, and I have appealed to them in private, (9)
I said (to them): 'Ask forgiveness from your Lord; Verily, He is Oft-Forgiving; (10)
He will send rain to you in abundance; (11)
And give you increase in wealth and children, and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers.' " (12)
What is the matter with you, that [you fear not Allāh (His punishment), and] you hope not for reward (from Allāh or you believe not in His Oneness). (13)
While He has created you in (different) stages [i.e. first Nutfah, then 'Alaqah and then Mudghah, see (VV.23:13,14)]. (14)
See you not how Allāh has created the seven heavens one above another, (15)
And has made the moon a light therein, and made the sun a lamp? (16)
And Allāh has brought you forth from the (dust of) earth. (Tafsir At-Tabarī) (17)
Afterwards He will return you into it (the earth), and bring you forth (again on the Day of Resurrection)? (18)
And Allāh has made for you the earth a wide expanse. (19)
That you may go about therein in broad roads. (20)
Nūh (Noah) said: "My Lord! They have disobeyed me, and followed one whose wealth and children give him no increase but loss. (21)
And they have plotted a mighty plot. (22)
And they have said: 'You shall not leave your gods, nor shall you leave Wadd, nor Suwā', nor Yaghūth, nor Ya'ūq, nor Nasr (these are the names of their idols). (23)
And indeed they have led many astray. And (O Allāh): 'Grant no increase to the Zālimūn (polytheists, wrong-doers, and disbelievers) save error.'(24)
Because of their sins they were drowned, then were made to enter the Fire, and they found none to help them instead of Allāh. (25)
And Nūh (Noah) said: "My Lord! Leave not one of the disbelievers on the earth! (26)
"If You leave them, they will mislead Your slaves, and they will beget none but wicked disbelievers." (27)
My Lord, grant pardon to me, and to my parents, and to everyone who enters my home as a believer, and to all the believing men and believing women, and do not increase the wrongdoers but in ruin. (28)
Jzaka'Allah khyra for watching and May Allah bless the sheikh and increase him in goodness. Please remember me in your sincere duas (prayers) :)
