480 - ASH-SHUA'RAA (Ayat# 105-122)
The narrative of Prophet Noah (peace be upon him) highlights the core principles of conveying a divine message: the call to Taqwa (consciousness of Allah) and obedience to the messenger. This account, detailed in the Quran, emphasizes that the role of a prophet is to deliver Allah’s message and that accountability ultimately rests with Allah. The people of Noah rejected his invitation to worship one God, dismissing his followers as low-status individuals. Noah clarified that his concern was not with their professions but with their denial of the truth. He affirmed that he could not guide those who believed, nor could he compel faith. His prayer for protection extended to the believers who accompanied him. Allah saved Noah and his followers from the great flood, preserving life within the ark, which contained pairs of all living creatures. The destruction of the disbelievers serves as a sign, though most did not believe. Allah is the Most High, the Most Powerful, and the Most Merciful.
