Verses 116-122Verses 105-115

      Noah's people had been faithless and mischief makers. Noah was sent to them to warn and admonish them, and to tell them that the house has an owner; but the obstinate people did not listen to him. When their compassionate brother told them:ِ ``Will you not avoid evil? I am a trustworthy Messenger for you, and I ask you of no reward for it.''

      The leaders of the people belied the Messenger of God and rejected him, by saying; true that you have always lived among us a truthful and compassionate brother, but look at the lowly persons that are around you as your followers! Do you expect us to be classed with them?

      The criterion for evaluation of personality in their sight was wealth, clothes, good appearance, and swift mounts. So to them, the poor labourers who had faith in Noah were known as mean, base, and lowly fellows.

      In answer to them Noah said:ِ

      ``How do I know what do they have in their mind, or what have they done before?'' I only know that I should not drive them away from me, because I am sent to preach and advise everyone. All the people have the same right to come and listen to the Message of their Lord and to receive God's Mercy. My duty is only to convey God's Message to His servants, and I am naught except a plain warner. So if my followers are otherwise, you ought to know that their account falls on no one, except my Lord, if you could only know it.''
