23.21 . And lo! in the cattle there is verily a lesson for you . We give you to drink of that which is in their bellies , and many uses have ye in them , and of them do ye eat ;
23. 23.22 . And on them and on the ship ye are carried .
23. 23.23 . And We verily sent Noah unto his folk , and he said : O my people! Serve Allah . Ye have no other god save Him . Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
23. 23.24 . But the chieftains of his folk , who disbelieved , said : This is only a mortal like you who would make himself superior to you . Had Allah willed , He surely could have sent down angels . We heard not of this in the case of our fathers of old .
23. 23.25 . He is only a man in whom is a madness , so watch him for a while .
23. 23.26 . He said : My Lord! Help me because they deny me .
23. 23.27 . Then We inspired in him , saying : Make the ship under Our eyes and Our inspiration . Then , when Our command cometh and the oven gusheth water , introduce therein of every ( kind ) two spouses , and thy household save him thereof against whom the Word hath already gone forth . And plead not with Me on behalf of those who have done wrong : Lo! they will be drowned .
23. 23.28 . And when thou art on board the ship , thou and whoso is with thee , then say : Praise be to Allah Who hath saved us from the wrongdoing folk!
23. 23.29 . And say : My Lord! Cause me to land at a blessed landing place , for Thou art best of all who bring to land .
23. 23.30 . Lo! herein verily are portents , for lo! We are ever putting ( mankind ) to the test .
