Rowwad Translation Center — 571

71:11 He will shower you with abundant rain from the sky,

71:12 and He will give you wealth and children, and bestow upon you gardens and rivers.

71:13 What is the matter with you that you do not fear the Majesty of Allah[1],

71:14 when He has created you in stages[1]?

71:15 Do you not see how Allah has created seven heavens, one above another,

71:16 and has placed the moon therein as a light and the sun as a burning lamp?

71:17 Allah has produced you from the earth like a plant[1],

71:18 then He will return you into it and then will bring you out again.

71:19 Allah has made the earth widespread for you

71:20 so that you may tread its spacious paths[1].’”

71:21 Noah said, “My Lord, they have disobeyed me and followed those whose wealth and children did not increase them except in loss[1].

71:22 They have contrived a mighty plot,

71:23 They said, ‘Do not abandon your gods; and do not abandon Wadd, Suwā‘, Yaghūth, Ya‘ūq, and Nasr[1].’

71:24 They have led many astray. So [O Lord], do not increase the wrongdoers except in error.”

71:25 Because of their sins, they were drowned and then were cast into the Fire, and they did not find any helpers against Allah.

71:26 Noah said, “My Lord, do not leave on earth a single disbeliever.

71:27 For if You leave them, they will surely lead Your slaves astray and beget none but wicked disbelievers.

71:28 My Lord, forgive me and my parents, and whoever enters my house as a believer, and all the believing men and women, and do not increase the wrongdoers except in ruin.”
