Worship Allah – you do not have any God except Him; indeed I fear for you the punishment of the Great Day (of Resurrection).” 59 but the leading men of his people said, "Truly, we see that you are obviously lost in error!" 60 'I am not in error, my nation' he replied. 'I am a Messenger from the Lord of the Worlds 61 I preach unto you the messages of my Lord and I councel you good, and I know from Allah which ye know not. 62 "Do you wonder that there has come to you a Reminder from your Lord through a man from amongst you, that he may warn you, so that you may fear Allah and that you may receive (His) Mercy?" 63 But they denied him, so We saved him and those with him in the Ark, and We drowned those who rejected Our signs. They were indeed a blind people. 64
