Laqad arsalna noohan ila qawmihi faqala ya qawmi oAAbudoo Allaha ma lakum min ilahin ghayruhu innee akhafu AAalaykum AAathaba yawmin AAatheemin\n59. We sent Noah to his people.\n He said: \"O my people!\n Worship God! ye have\n No other god but Him.\n I fear for you the Punishment\n Of a dreadful Day!\n60. Qala almalao min qawmihi inna lanaraka fee dalalin mubeenin\n60. The leaders of his people\n Said: \"Ah! we see thee\n Evidently wandering (in mind).\"\n61. Qala ya qawmi laysa bee dalalatun walakinnee rasoolun min rabbi alAAalameena\n61. He said: \"O my people!\n No wandering is there\n In my (mind): on the contrary\n I am an apostle from\n The Lord and Cherisher\n Of the Worlds!\n62. Oballighukum risalati rabbee waansahu lakum waaAAlamu mina Allahi ma la taAAlamoona\n62. \"I but fulfil towards you\n The duties of my Lord's mission:\n Sincere is my advice to you,\n And I know from God\n Something that ye know not.\n63. Awa AAajibtum an jaakum thikrun min rabbikum AAala rajulin minkum liyunthirakum walitattaqoo walaAAallakum turhamoona\n63. \"Do ye wonder that\n There hath come to you\n A message from your Lord,\n Through a man of your own\n People, to warn you,\u2014\n So that ye may fear God\n And haply receive His Mercy?\"\n64. Fakaththaboohu faanjaynahu waallatheena maAAahu fee alfulki waaghraqna allatheena kaththaboo bi-ayatina innahum kanoo qawman AAameena\n64. But they rejected him,\n And We delivered him,\n And those with him,\n In the Ark:\n But We overwhelmed\n In the Flood those\n Who rejected Our Signs.\n They were indeed\n A blind people!","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra VII.: A\u2019r\u0101f, or the Heights: Section 8 (58-64)","type":"page"}
