We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him. Indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a tremendous Day. 59 The leaders of his people said, “Indeed we see you in open error.” 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 Does it seem strange to you that a reminder from your Lord should be sent to a man, from among you, to warn you so that you might receive 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
