AlQuran.My

And when thou hast embarked on the Ark - thou and those with thee,- say: "Praise be to Allah, Who has saved us from the people who do wrong."

And say: "O my Lord! enable me to disembark with thy blessing: for Thou art the Best to enable (us) to disembark."

Verily in this there are Signs (for men to understand); (thus) do We try (men).

Then We raised after them another generation.

And We sent to them an apostle from among themselves, (saying), "Worship Allah. ye have no other god but Him. Will ye not fear (Him)?"

And the chiefs of his people, who disbelieved and denied the Meeting in the Hereafter, and on whom We had bestowed the good things of this life, said: "He is no more than a man like yourselves: he eats of that of which ye eat, and drinks of what ye drink.

"If ye obey a man like yourselves, behold, it is certain ye will be lost.

"Does he promise that when ye die and become dust and bones, ye shall be brought forth (again)?

"Far, very far is that which ye are promised!

"There is nothing but our life in this world! We shall die and we live! But we shall never be raised up again!

"He is only a man who invents a lie against Allah, but we are not the ones to believe in him!"

(The prophet) said: "O my Lord! help me: for that they accuse me of falsehood."

((Allah)) said: "In but a little while, they are sure to be sorry!"

Then the Blast overtook them with justice, and We made them as rubbish of dead leaves (floating on the stream of Time)! So away with the people who do wrong!

Then We raised after them other generations.
