Stories of the Righteous – Nuh [peace be upon him]
In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Allah – The Exalted- says:
لَقَدۡ كَانَ فِى قَصَصِہِمۡ عِبۡرَةٌ۬ لِّأُوْلِى ٱلۡأَلۡبَـٰبِۗ مَا كَانَ حَدِيثً۬ا يُفۡتَرَىٰ وَلَـٰڪِن تَصۡدِيقَ ٱلَّذِى بَيۡنَ يَدَيۡهِ وَتَفۡصِيلَ ڪُلِّ شَىۡءٍ۬ وَهُدً۬ى وَرَحۡمَةً۬ لِّقَوۡمٍ۬ يُؤۡمِنُونَ
Indeed, in their stories, there is a lesson for men of understanding. It (the Quran) is not a forged statement but a confirmation of Allah’s existing Books [the Taurat (Torah), the Injeel (Gospel), and other Scriptures of Allah] and a detailed explanation of everything and a guide and a Mercy for the people who believe.
The stories of the Prophets and Messengers with their people contain lessons for those who possess understanding. These stories teach us lessons from the actions of good and evil people. They show us that those who emulate the righteous will be honoured, while those who choose the path of the wicked will face disgrace. Moreover, these stories give us an insight into Allah’s qualities of perfection and His great wisdom. They remind us that Allah is the only one who has the right to be worshipped, without any partners or associates. PDF: Nuh
