Prophet Nuh was sent by Allah to guide his people to the straight path. He preached the message of monotheism, calling his people to worship only Allah and to abandon their idolatry. Despite his tireless efforts and patient preaching over many years, his people persisted in their disbelief and continued to worship idols.
As his people grew more obstinate, Prophet Nuh beseeched Allah for guidance. In response, Allah instructed him to build an ark, as a great flood was coming to punish the disbelievers. Nuh faithfully followed Allah's command and began constructing the ark.
Throughout the construction, Prophet Nuh faced ridicule and mockery from his people, but he remained steadfast in his mission. As the ark neared completion, he invited his people to repent and board the ark to be saved from the impending flood.
Unfortunately, only a few believed in him, and the majority rejected his message, mocking him further. When the flood finally came, the doors of the ark closed, and the believers, along with pairs of every animal, were safely housed inside.
For forty days and nights, the floodwaters engulfed the earth, cleansing it of the corruption and disbelief. The ark floated atop the turbulent waters, guided by the will of Allah. Eventually, the floodwaters receded, and the ark came to rest on Mount Judi.
Prophet Nuh and the believers emerged from the ark, and Allah commanded the earth to swallow the waters and settle. Nuh's people, along with their idols, were destroyed, their arrogance and disbelief leading to their downfall.
After the flood, Prophet Nuh's mission continued as he guided his people who believed in him to establish a righteous society. His story serves as a reminder of the consequences of disbelief and the importance of unwavering faith in Allah's guidance. Prophet Nuh's patience, perseverance, and trust in Allah are revered traits that inspire believers to this day.
