- and (We produced) a tree (of olive) that comes forth from the (mount) Tūr of Sinai, which grows with oil and with a dressing for those who eat.

And indeed there is a sure lesson in the cattle for you. We give you a drink from that which lies in their bellies, and for you there are many benefits in them, and of them you eat,

and on them and on the boats you are transported.

Surely, We sent NūH to his nation. So he said, “My people, worship Allah. You have no god whatsoever other than Him. So, do you not fear Allah?”

So, said the disbelieving chiefs from among his nation, “This (man) is nothing but a human being like you. He wishes to impose his superiority over you. Had Allah willed, He would have sent down angels (instead of him). We have not heard of such a thing among our forefathers.

He is none but a man suffering from madness; so wait for (what happens to) him until some time”

He said, “My Lord, help me, for they have rejected me.”

So, We sent Our revelation to him, saying, “Make the ship under Our eyes and Our revelation. So, when Our command will come, and the oven will gush forth, take on its board a pair of two from each (species) along with your family, except those of them against whom the word has already come to pass. And do not speak to Me (in favor) of those who have done wrong. They are sure to be drowned.

So, when you and those with you are well seated in the ship, say, ‘Praise is for Allah who saved us from the wrongdoing people.’

And say, ‘My Lord, make me land a blessed landing, and You are the best of those who bring (someone) to land’”.

Surely, there are signs in it, and We do always test (people).

Then after them We created another generation,

and sent among them a messenger from themselves (to convey the message): “Worship Allah; you have no god whatsoever other than Him. So do you not fear Allah?”

Then said the chiefs of his nation who were disbelievers and who denied facing the Hereafter and whom We made affluent in the worldly life, “This (man) is nothing but a human being. He eats from what you eat from, and drinks from what you drink.

If you obey a human like yourselves, then you will be absolute losers.

Does he promise you that, when you die and are turned into dust and bones, you are to be brought forth?

Far too improbable is what you are being promised.

There is nothing but our worldly life. We die and we live, and we are not to be raised again.

He is nothing but a man who has forged a lie against Allah, and we are not going to believe in him.”
