60.3 The Statement of Allah Aza Wajal: "And indeed We sent Nuh to his people..."

٦٠۔٣ بَابُ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ ﷻ: {وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَى قَوْمِهِ}

[Machine] Ibn Abbas said: "Initiator of opinion, what was not known to us yesterday, so hold on. The oven was hot, and the spring of water sprouted. Ikrima said the face of the earth. Mujahid Al-Judi said a mountain in the island. It is a habit like a state. Allah, the Exalted, said: 'Indeed, We sent Noah to his people, [saying], "Warn your people before there comes to them a painful punishment."' Until the end of the surah. 'And recite to them the news of Noah, when he said to his people, "O my people, if my residence and my reminding of the verses of Allah has become burdensome upon you..."' Until His saying: 'among the Muslims.'"

قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: {بَادِئَ الرَّأْيِ} مَا ظَهَرَ لَنَا {أَقْلِعِي} أَمْسِكِي. {وَفَارَ التَّنُّورُ} نَبَعَ الْمَاءُ. وَقَالَ عِكْرِمَةُ وَجْهُ الأَرْضِ. وَقَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ الْجُودِيُّ جَبَلٌ بِالْجَزِيرَةِ. دَأْبٌ مِثْلُ حَالٌ. قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: {إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَى قَوْمِهِ أَنْ أَنْذِرْ قَوْمَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ} إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ {وَاتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ نُوحٍ إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِ يَا قَوْمِ إِنْ كَانَ كَبُرَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَقَامِي وَتَذْكِيرِي بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: {مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ}.

Once Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood amongst the people, glorified and praised Allah as He deserved and then mentioned the Dajjal saying, "l warn you against him (i.e. the Dajjal) and there was no prophet but warned his nation against him. No doubt, Noah warned his nation against him but I tell you about him something of which no prophet told his nation before me. You should know that he is one-eyed, and Allah is not one-eyed."  

البخاري:٣٣٣٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ سَالِمٌ

وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ ؓ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي النَّاسِ فَأَثْنَى عَلَى اللَّهِ بِمَا هُوَ أَهْلُهُ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الدَّجَّالَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لأُنْذِرُكُمُوهُ وَمَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إِلاَّ أَنْذَرَهُ قَوْمَهُ لَقَدْ أَنْذَرَ نُوحٌ قَوْمَهُ وَلَكِنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ فِيهِ قَوْلاً لَمْ يَقُلْهُ نَبِيٌّ لِقَوْمِهِ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ أَعْوَرُ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ لَيْسَ بِأَعْوَرَ  

bukhari:3338Abū Nuʿaym > Shaybān > Yaḥyá > Abū Salamah > Abū Hurayrah

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Shall I not tell you about the Dajjal a story of which no prophet told his nation? The Dajjall is one-eyed and will bring with him what will resemble Hell and Paradise, and what he will call Paradise will be actually Hell; so I warn you (against him) as Noah warned his nation against him."  

البخاري:٣٣٣٨حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَلاَ أُحَدِّثُكُمْ حَدِيثًا عَنِ الدَّجَّالِ مَا حَدَّثَ بِهِ نَبِيٌّ قَوْمَهُ إِنَّهُ أَعْوَرُ وَإِنَّهُ يَجِيءُ مَعَهُ بِمِثَالِ الْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ فَالَّتِي يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا الْجَنَّةُ هِيَ النَّارُ وَإِنِّي أُنْذِرُكُمْ كَمَا أَنْذَرَ بِهِ نُوحٌ قَوْمَهُ  

The Prophet ﷺ and his nation will stand witness for Nūḥ when his own nation will deny his mission

bukhari:3339Mūsá b. Ismāʿīl > ʿAbd al-Wāḥid b. Ziyād > al-Aʿmash > Abū Ṣāliḥ > Abū Saʿīd

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Nūḥ and his nation will come ˹on Judgement Day˺ and Allah will ask, 'Did you convey ˹the Message˺?' He will reply, 'Yes, indeed O my Lord!' Then Allah will ask his nation, 'Did Nuḥ convey ˹the Message˺ to you?' They will reply, 'No, no prophet came to us.' Then Allah will ask Nūḥ, 'Who will stand a witness for you?' He will reply, 'Muhammad and his followers.' So, we will stand as witnesses for him." That is the Statement of Allah: "Thus we have made you a wasaṭ nation that you might be witnesses over mankind... (Baqarah 2:143)" and wasaṭ means justice.  

البخاري:٣٣٣٩حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «يَجِيءُ نُوحٌ وَأُمَّتُهُ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: هَلْ بَلَّغْتَ؟ فَيَقُولُ: نَعَمْ أَىْ رَبِّ۔ فَيَقُولُ لأُمَّتِهِ: هَلْ بَلَّغَكُمْ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: لاَ مَا جَاءَنَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ۔ فَيَقُولُ لِنُوحٍ: مَنْ يَشْهَدُ لَكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ وَأُمَّتُهُ۔ فَنَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ بَلَّغَ۔» وَهْوَ قَوْلُهُ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ {وَكَذَلِكَ جَعَلْنَاكُمْ أُمَّةً وَسَطًا لِتَكُونُوا شُهَدَاءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ} وَالْوَسَطُ الْعَدْلُ۔»  

bukhari:3340Isḥāq b. Naṣr > Muḥammad b. ʿUbayd > Abū Ḥayyān > Abū Zurʿah > Abū Hurayrah

We were in the company of the Prophet ﷺ at a banquet and a cooked (mutton) forearm was set before him, and he used to like it. He ate a morsel of it and said, "I will be the chief of all the people on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know how Allah will gather all the first and the last (people) in one level place where an observer will be able to see (all) of them and they will be able to hear the announcer, and the sun will come near to them. Some People will say: Don't you see, in what condition you are and the state to which you have reached? Why don't you look for a person who can intercede for you with your Lord? Some people will say: Appeal to your father, Adam.' They will go to him and say: 'O Adam! You are the father of all mankind, and Allah created you with His Own Hands, and ordered the angels to prostrate for you, and made you live in Paradise. Will you not intercede for us with your Lord? Don't you see in what (miserable) state we are, and to what condition we have reached?' On that Adam will reply, 'My Lord is so angry as He has never been before and will never be in the future; (besides), He forbade me (to eat from) the tree, but I disobeyed (Him), (I am worried about) myself! Myself! Go to somebody else; go to Noah.' They will go to Noah and say; 'O Noah! You are the first amongst the messengers of Allah to the people of the earth, and Allah named you a thankful slave. Don't you see in what a (miserable) state we are and to what condition we have reached? Will you not intercede for us with your Lord? Noah will reply: 'Today my Lord has become so angry as he had never been before and will never be in the future Myself! Myself! Go to the Prophet (Muhammad). The people will come to me, and I will prostrate myself underneath Allah's Throne. Then I will be addressed: 'O Muhammad! Raise your head; intercede, for your intercession will be accepted, and ask (for anything). for you will be given. "

Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited the following Verse) in the usual tone: 'Fahal-Min-Muddalkir.' (54.15)  

البخاري:٣٣٤١حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ نَصْرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ؓ
