Allah instructed His Prophet , saying:
[وَاتْلُ
عَلَيْهِمْ]
(And recite to them) relate to the disbelievers of the Quraysh who belied you
and rejected you,
[نَبَأَ
نُوحٍ]
(the news of Nuh) meaning, his story and news with his people who belied him.
Tell them how Allah destroyed them and caused every last one of them all to
drown. Let this be a lesson for your people, lest they will be destroyed like
them.
[إِذْ قَالَ
لِقَوْمِهِ يَقَوْمِ إِن كَانَ كَبُرَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَّقَامِى وَتَذْكِيرِى بِآيَاتِ
اللَّهِ فَعَلَى اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ]
(When he said to his people: "O my people, if my stay (with you), and my
reminding (you) of the Ayat of Allah is hard on you, then I put my trust in
Allah.'') Meaning, `if you find that it is too much of an offense that I should
live among you and preach to you the revelation of Allah and His signs and
proofs, then I do not care what you think, and I will not stop inviting you.'
[فَأَجْمِعُواْ
أَمْرَكُمْ وَشُرَكَآءَكُمْ]
(So devise your plot, you and your partners), `get together with all of your
deities (idols and statues) that you call upon beside Allah,'
[ثُمَّ لاَ يَكُنْ
أَمْرُكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ غُمَّةً]
(and let not your plot be in confusion for you) meaning, an`d do not be
confused about this, rather come and let us settle this together if you claim
that you are truthful,'
[وَلاَ
تُنظِرُونَ]
(and give me no respite.) `Do not give me respite even for one hour. Whatever
you can do, go ahead and do it. I do not care, and I do not fear you, because
you are not standing on anything.' This is similar to what Hud said to his
people,
[إِن نَّقُولُ إِلاَّ
اعْتَرَاكَ بَعْضُ ءَالِهَتِنَا بِسُوءٍ قَالَ إِنِّى أُشْهِدُ اللَّهِ
وَاشْهَدُواْ أَنِّى بَرِىءٌ مِّمَّا تُشْرِكُونَ - مِن دُونِهِ فَكِيدُونِى
جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ لاَ تُنظِرُونِ إِنِّى تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللَّهِ رَبِّى
وَرَبِّكُمْ]
(I call Allah to witness, and you bear witness, that I am free from that
which you ascribe as partners in worship with Him (Allah). So plot against me,
all of you, and give me no respite. I put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your
Lord!) (11:54-55)
