Nuh said: my Lord! verily they have disobeyed me and followed them whose riches and children have only increased them in loss. 21 And they contrived a plot of great magnitude, 22 And who have said: ye shall not leave your gods; nor shall ye leave Wadd nor Suwa', nor Yaghuth, nor Ya'uq nor Nasr. 23 And they have led many astray. (Noah supplicated saying): 'Allah, do not increase the harmdoers except in error' 24 Because of their sins, they were drowned and made to enter hell. They could find no one to help them besides God. 25 And Nuh said: my Lord! leave not upon the earth of the infidels one inhabitant. 26 for, behold, if Thou dost leave them, they will [always try to] lead astray those who worship Thee, and will give birth to nothing but wickedness and stubborn ingratitude. 27 “O my Lord! Forgive me, and my parents, and the believers who are in my house, and all other Muslim men and Muslim women; and do not increase anything for the unjust except ruin.” 28
