Chapter 71, 28 verses
Inna arsalna noohan ila qawmihi an anthir qawmaka min qabli an yatiyahum AAathabun aleemun
We sent Noah to his People (with the Command): "Do thou warn thy People before there comes to them a grievous Penalty."
Surely We sent Nuh to his people, saying: Warn your people before there come upon them a painful chastisement.
إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِۦٓ أَنْ أَنذِرْ قَوْمَكَ مِن قَبْلِ أَن يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
Qala ya qawmi innee lakum natheerun mubeenun
He said: "O my People! I am to you a Warner, clear and open:
He said: O my people! Surely I am a plain warner to you:
قَالَ يَٰقَوْمِ إِنِّى لَكُمْ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ
Ani oAAbudoo Allaha waittaqoohu waateeAAooni
"That ye should worship Allah, fear Him and obey me:
That you should serve Allah and be careful of (your duty to) Him and obey me:
أَنِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱتَّقُوهُ وَأَطِيعُونِ
Yaghfir lakum min thunoobikum wayuakhkhirkum ila ajalin musamman inna ajala Allahi itha jaa la yuakhkharu law kuntum taAAlamoona
"So He may forgive you your sins and give you respite for a stated Term: for when the Term given by Allah is accomplished, it cannot be put forward: if ye only knew."
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!
يَغْفِرْ لَكُم مِّن ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرْكُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى إِنَّ أَجَلَ ٱللَّهِ إِذَا جَآءَ لَا يُؤَخَّرُ لَوْ كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
Qala rabbi innee daAAawtu qawmee laylan wanaharan
He said: "O my Lord! I have called to my People night and day:
He said: O my Lord! surely I have called my people by night and by day!
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِى لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا
Falam yazidhum duAAaee illa firaran
"But my call only increases (their) flight (from the Right).
But my call has only made them flee the more:
فَلَمْ يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَآءِىٓ إِلَّا فِرَارًا
Wainnee kullama daAAawtuhum litaghfira lahum jaAAaloo asabiAAahum fee athanihim waistaghshaw thiyabahum waasarroo waistakbaroo istikbaran
"And every time I have called to them, that Thou mightest forgive them, they have (only) thrust their fingers into their ears, covered themselves up with their garments, grown obstinate, and given themselves up to arrogance.
And whenever I have called them that Thou mayest forgive them, they put their fingers in their ears, cover themselves with their garments, and persist and are puffed up with pride:
وَإِنِّى كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوٓا۟ أَصَٰبِعَهُمْ فِىٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَٱسْتَغْشَوْا۟ ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَصَرُّوا۟ وَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ ٱسْتِكْبَارًا
Thumma innee daAAawtuhum jiharan
"So I have called to them aloud;
Then surely I called to them aloud:
ثُمَّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُهُمْ جِهَارًا
Thumma innee aAAlantu lahum waasrartu lahum israran
"Further I have spoken to them in public and secretly in private,
Then surely I spoke to them in public and I spoke to them in secret:
ثُمَّ إِنِّىٓ أَعْلَنتُ لَهُمْ وَأَسْرَرْتُ لَهُمْ إِسْرَارًا
Faqultu istaghfiroo rabbakum innahu kana ghaffaran
"Saying, 'Ask forgiveness from your Lord; for He is Oft - Forgiving;
Then I said, Ask forgiveness of your Lord, surely He is the most Forgiving:
فَقُلْتُ ٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ غَفَّارًا
Yursili alssamaa AAalaykum midraran
"'He will send rain to you in abundance;
He will send down upon you the cloud, pouring down abundance of rain:
يُرْسِلِ ٱلسَّمَآءَ عَلَيْكُم مِّدْرَارًا
Wayumdidkum biamwalin wabaneena wayajAAal lakum jannatin wayajAAal lakum anharan
"'Give you increase in wealth and sons; and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers (of flowing water).
And help you with wealth and sons, and make for you gardens, and make for you rivers.
وَيُمْدِدْكُم بِأَمْوَٰلٍ وَبَنِينَ وَيَجْعَل لَّكُمْ جَنَّٰتٍ وَيَجْعَل لَّكُمْ أَنْهَٰرًا

"'And made the moon a light in their midst, and made the sun as a (Glorious) Lamp?
And made the moon therein a light, and made the sun a lamp?
وَجَعَلَ ٱلْقَمَرَ فِيهِنَّ نُورًا وَجَعَلَ ٱلشَّمْسَ سِرَاجًا
WaAllahu anbatakum mina alardi nabatan
"'And Allah has produced you from the earth growing (gradually),
And Allah has made you grow out of the earth as a growth:
وَٱللَّهُ أَنۢبَتَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ نَبَاتًا
Thumma yuAAeedukum feeha wayukhrijukum ikhrajan
"'And in the End He will return you into the (earth), and raise you forth (again at the Resurrection)?
Then He returns you to it, then will He bring you forth a (new) bringing forth:
ثُمَّ يُعِيدُكُمْ فِيهَا وَيُخْرِجُكُمْ إِخْرَاجًا

"'And Allah has made the earth for you as a carpet (spread out),
And Allah has made for you the earth a wide expanse,
وَٱللَّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ بِسَاطًا

"'That ye may go about therein, in spacious roads.'"
That you may go along therein in wide paths.
لِّتَسْلُكُوا۟ مِنْهَا سُبُلًا فِجَاجًا
Qala noohun rabbi innahum AAasawnee waittabaAAoo man lam yazidhu maluhu wawaladuhu illa khasaran
Noah said: "O my Lord! They have disobeyed me, but they follow (men) whose wealth and children give them no increase but only Loss.
Nuh said: My Lord! surely they have disobeyed me and followed him whose wealth and children have added to him nothing but loss.
قَالَ نُوحٌ رَّبِّ إِنَّهُمْ عَصَوْنِى وَٱتَّبَعُوا۟ مَن لَّمْ يَزِدْهُ مَالُهُۥ وَوَلَدُهُۥٓ إِلَّا خَسَارًا
Wamakaroo makran kubbaran
"And they have devised a tremendous Plot.
And they have planned a very great plan.
وَمَكَرُوا۟ مَكْرًا كُبَّارًا
Waqaloo la tatharunna alihatakum wala tatharunna waddan wala suwaAAan wala yaghootha wayaAAooqa wanasran
"And they have said (to each other), 'Abandon not your gods: Abandon neither Wadd nor Suwa', neither Yaguth nor Ya'uq, nor Nasr'; -
And they say: By no means leave your gods, nor leave Wadd, nor Suwa; nor Yaghus, and Yauq and Nasr.
وَقَالُوا۟ لَا تَذَرُنَّ ءَالِهَتَكُمْ وَلَا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَلَا سُوَاعًا وَلَا يَغُوثَ وَيَعُوقَ وَنَسْرًا
Waqad adalloo katheeran wala tazidi alththalimeena illa dalalan
"They have already misled many; and grant Thou no increase to the wrong - doers but in straying (from their mark)."
And indeed they have led astray many, and do not increase the unjust in aught but error.
وَقَدْ أَضَلُّوا۟ كَثِيرًا وَلَا تَزِدِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ إِلَّا ضَلَٰلًا

Because of their sins they were drowned (in the flood), and were made to enter the Fire (of Punishment): and they found - in lieu of Allah - none to help them.
Because of their wrongs they were drowned, then made to enter fire, so they did not find any helpers besides Allah.
مِّمَّا خَطِيٓـَٰٔتِهِمْ أُغْرِقُوا۟ فَأُدْخِلُوا۟ نَارًا فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا۟ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَنصَارًا
Waqala noohun rabbi la tathar AAala alardi mina alkafireena dayyaran
And Noah, said: "O my Lord! Leave not of the Unbelievers, a single one on earth!
And Nuh said: My Lord! leave not upon the land any dweller from among the unbelievers:
وَقَالَ نُوحٌ رَّبِّ لَا تَذَرْ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنَ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ دَيَّارًا

"For, if Thou dost leave (any of) them, they will but mislead Thy devotees, and they will breed none but wicked ungrateful ones.
For surely if Thou leave them they will lead astray Thy servants, and will not beget any but immoral, ungrateful (children)
