surah al-mu`minun ayat 21 - 30


And there is a lesson for you in livestock: We give you to drink from what is in their bellies, and you have many benefits in them, and from them you eat.


And on them, and on the ships, you are transported.


We sent Noah to his people. He said, "O my people, worship Allah, you have no deity other than Him. Will you not take heed?"


But the notables of his people, who disbelieved, said, "This is nothing but a human like you, who wants to gain superiority over you. Had Allah willed, He would have sent down angels. We never heard of this from our forefathers of old.


He is nothing but a man possessed. Just ignore him for a while."


He said, "My Lord, help me, for they have rejected me."


So We inspired him: "Build the Ark under Our observation and by Our inspiration. And when Our decree comes to pass, and the oven boils over, load into it two pairs of every kind, together with your family, except those of them against whom the word has already been pronounced. And do not speak to me concerning those who did wrong; for they are to be drowned."


Then, when you and those with you are settled in the Ark, say, "Praise be to Allah, who has saved us from the wrongdoing people."


And say, "My Lord, land me with a blessed landing, as you are the best of transporters."


Surely in that are signs. We are always testing.
