وَإِنَّ لَكُم فِي الأَنعامِ لَعِبرَةً ۖ نُسقيكُم مِمّا في بُطونِها وَلَكُم فيها مَنافِعُ كَثيرَةٌ وَمِنها تَأكُلونَ
And indeed, for you in livestock is a lesson. We give you drink from that which is in their bellies, and for you in them are numerous benefits, and from them you eat.
وَعَلَيها وَعَلَى الفُلكِ تُحمَلونَ
And upon them and on ships you are carried.
وَلَقَد أَرسَلنا نوحًا إِلىٰ قَومِهِ فَقالَ يا قَومِ اعبُدُوا اللَّهَ ما لَكُم مِن إِلـٰهٍ غَيرُهُ ۖ أَفَلا تَتَّقونَ
And We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"
فَقالَ المَلَأُ الَّذينَ كَفَروا مِن قَومِهِ ما هـٰذا إِلّا بَشَرٌ مِثلُكُم يُريدُ أَن يَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيكُم وَلَو شاءَ اللَّهُ لَأَنزَلَ مَلائِكَةً ما سَمِعنا بِهـٰذا في آبائِنَا الأَوَّلينَ
But the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a man like yourselves who wishes to take precedence over you; and if Allah had willed [to send a messenger], He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers.
إِن هُوَ إِلّا رَجُلٌ بِهِ جِنَّةٌ فَتَرَبَّصوا بِهِ حَتّىٰ حينٍ
He is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait concerning him for a time."
قالَ رَبِّ انصُرني بِما كَذَّبونِ
[Noah] said, "My Lord, support me because they have denied me."
فَأَوحَينا إِلَيهِ أَنِ اصنَعِ الفُلكَ بِأَعيُنِنا وَوَحيِنا فَإِذا جاءَ أَمرُنا وَفارَ التَّنّورُ ۙ فَاسلُك فيها مِن كُلٍّ زَوجَينِ اثنَينِ وَأَهلَكَ إِلّا مَن سَبَقَ عَلَيهِ القَولُ مِنهُم ۖ وَلا تُخاطِبني فِي الَّذينَ ظَلَموا ۖ إِنَّهُم مُغرَقونَ
So We inspired to him, "Construct the ship under Our observation, and Our inspiration, and when Our command comes and the oven overflows, put into the ship from each [creature] two mates and your family, except those for whom the decree [of destruction] has proceeded. And do not address Me concerning those who have wronged; indeed, they are to be drowned.
فَإِذَا استَوَيتَ أَنتَ وَمَن مَعَكَ عَلَى الفُلكِ فَقُلِ الحَمدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذي نَجّانا مِنَ القَومِ الظّالِمينَ
And when you have boarded the ship, you and those with you, then say, 'Praise to Allah who has saved us from the wrongdoing people.'
وَقُل رَبِّ أَنزِلني مُنزَلًا مُبارَكًا وَأَنتَ خَيرُ المُنزِلينَ
And say, 'My Lord, let me land at a blessed landing place, and You are the best to accommodate [us].' "
إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآياتٍ وَإِن كُنّا لَمُبتَلينَ
Indeed in that are signs, and indeed, We are ever testing [Our servants].
ثُمَّ أَنشَأنا مِن بَعدِهِم قَرنًا آخَرينَ
Then We produced after them a generation of others.
