Indeed We sent Nooh to his people – he therefore said, “O my people! Worship Allah – you do not have any God except Him; indeed I fear for you the punishment of the Great Day (of Resurrection).” 59 The leaders of his people said: "Ah! we see thee evidently wandering (in mind)." 60 Said he, 'My people, there is no error in me; but I am a Messenger from the Lord of all Being.' 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 They accused him of telling lies. So We saved him and his companions in an ark and drowned those who called Our revelations mere lies. They were, no doubt, a blind people. 64
