SURAH Al-Nooh 71: (The Prophet Noah AS)
This Surah is Makki, and it has 28 verses and 2 Sections.
With the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Very-Merciful

Because of their sins, they were drowned, and then admitted into the Fire. So they found no helpers for them besides Allah. [25]

And said NUH, ''My Lord, do not leave on earth even a single inhabitant from the disbelievers (surviving). [26]

If You leave them (surviving), they will lead Your slaves astray, and will beget none but a sinful disbeliever. [27]

My Lord, grant pardon to me, and to my parents, and to everyone who enters my home as a believer, and to all the believing men and believing women, and do not increase the wrongdoers but in ruin. [28]

COMMENTARY: The 'sins' referred to here are unpardonable sins of 'Kufr and Shirk'. They were drowned in water and emerged in fire, an opposing punishment which is not impossible for Divine power. Obviously, the 'fire' mentioned in the verse does not refer to the fire of Hell, but refers to the fire in the realm of 'Barzakh' (the existence between the worldly life and the life of the Hereafter). The Qur'an speaks of the fire in the realm of 'Barzakh'.

It is evident that Sayyidna Nuh AS's people will be punished in Hell-Fire in the Hereafter after resurrection and accounting for their deeds. The Qur'an Confirms Punishment in the Grave. The verse under comment confirms that people will be punished in the realm of Barzakh, usually referring to the period of stay in the grave. This further proves that, since the evil-doers will be punished in the grave, the righteous believers will also be rewarded and blessed with favours. Authentic and successively transmitted Ahaadith report about the reward and punishment in the grave so abundantly and clearly that its reality cannot be denied or rejected. Therefore, there is a total agreement of the Ummah on this issue; and belief in it is the symbol of Ahl-us-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah.

One day, after another bad ride, I told him my horse seemed depressed. "How do I cheer up a horse?" I asked.

He shared his secret: "Tell her she's good at stuff and that she looks beautiful."
