Translation of the meanings Surah: Ash-Shu‘arā’   Ayah:
قَالَ وَمَا عِلۡمِي بِمَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ
112. He said: "And what is my knowledge of what they used to do."
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
إِنۡ حِسَابُهُمۡ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّيۖ لَوۡ تَشۡعُرُونَ
113. Their reckoning is only with 'Allāh' my Lord, if you could 'only' perceive.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
وَمَآ أَنَا۠ بِطَارِدِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
114. I am not one to drive away the believers;
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
إِنۡ أَنَا۠ إِلَّا نَذِيرٞ مُّبِينٞ
115. I am only a plain warner8.
8. Of Chastisement for whoever associates any partner with Allāh and works evil.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
قَالُواْ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهِ يَٰنُوحُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡمَرۡجُومِينَ
116. They said: "Noah, if you do not desist 'your preaching', you will surely be stoned to death."
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنَّ قَوۡمِي كَذَّبُونِ
117. He said: "My Lord 'Allāh', my people rejected me.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
فَٱفۡتَحۡ بَيۡنِي وَبَيۡنَهُمۡ فَتۡحٗا وَنَجِّنِي وَمَن مَّعِيَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
118. So judge between me and them with a just decision, and deliver me and those who are with me of the believers."
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
فَأَنجَيۡنَٰهُ وَمَن مَّعَهُۥ فِي ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ
119. So We delivered him and those with him in the laden ark9.
9. During Noah's time we see everyone has turned their back on Allāh, except Noah; he worshipped and loved Allāh. Perhaps his amazing obedience was found in his heart of gratitude and what saved and set him and his family apart from those who were wiped out in the great flood. Allāh described him as grateful servant. The Qur’an tells us the people of this time were full of evil and sin, that is why Allāh sent the flood. If the opposite of joyful is sad and the opposite of commitment is refusal, could it be that the people of Noah’s time sadly refused their commitment to Allāh. The root of all sin is ingratitude; it certainly seems to be a great place for the Satan to get a foothold as he did in every person but Noah during this time.
Abraham, the father of many generations, was one whose heart of gratitude almost cost him the life of his beloved son, but Allāh spared Ismael. His commitment to Allāh was greater than any other thing, even his own son. Allāh sparing Ismael shows us how He blessed Abraham’s obedience. Even when he questioned, even when he sought assurance, obedience flowed from Abraham’s heart of gratitude.
We find Moses and the Israelites singing a song of deliverance and praise after Allāh led the Israelites out of Egypt and saved them by parting the Red Sea.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
ثُمَّ أَغۡرَقۡنَا بَعۡدُ ٱلۡبَاقِينَ
120. Then afterwards We drowned the rest.
Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ

Arabic explanations of the Qur’an:
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
122. And indeed your Lord 'Allāh' is the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
