Meaning: Noah
Total Ayahs: 28
Place of Revelation: Mecca
Surah Nuh presents Prophet Noah’s earnest mission to his people: to abandon idolatry and worship Allah alone. He appeals repeatedly, reminding them of Allah’s signs and forgiveness. Yet they persist in denial until they declare, 'We will not abandon our gods.' Noah then prays for their destruction with divine permission. The surah recounts the Great Flood and warns readers: if people continue in denial despite signs, they risk severe consequences.
Prophetic patience and perseverance, despite rejection, are virtues. Divine mercy is vast, but deliberate rejection of truth brings ruin—Noah’s story is a timeless warning.
Recitation strengthens resolve for da'wah, increases reliance on Allah in adversity, encourages turning to Him in distress, and reminds that deliberate unbelief carries dire outcomes—affirming hope tempered with accountability.
71:5–6 ‘My Lord! I called my people night and day… but they refused.’; 71:27 foretelling punishment.
Remain steadfast in inviting others to truth, embrace sincere invocation, and learn from prophetic endurance in adversity.
