Surah 54. Al-Qamar, Ayah 9
| ۞ كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ فَكَذَّبُوا عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا مَجْنُونٌ وَازْدُجِرَ |
| Transliteration | : | kadhdhabat qablu -hum qawm noh. fa- kadhdhabo cabd -naa wa- qaalo majnon wa- uzdujira |
| Pickthall | : | The folk of Noah denied before them, yea, they denied Our slave and said: A madman; and he was repulsed. |
| Asad | : | [LONG] BEFORE those [who now deny resurrection] did Noah's people call it a lie; and they gave the lie to Our servant and said, "Mad is he!" - and he was repulsed.6 |
| Malik | : | Long before them, the people of Nuh (Noah) disbelieved. They rejected Our servant, called him a madman and drove him out. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Before them the People of Noah rejected (their apostle): they rejected Our servant and said "Here is one possessed!" and he was driven out. 5135 |
Note - 6See {11:25-48}, where the story of Noah and the Flood is
given in greater detail.

Note - 5135The story of Noah and the Flood is frequently referred to
in the Qur-an. The passage which best illustrates this
passage will be found in xi. 25-48. Note in that passage
how they first insult and abuse him arrogantly; how he
humbly argues with them; how they laugh him to scorn, as
much as to say that he was a madman possessed of some
evil spirit; and how the Flood comes and he is saved in
the Ark, and the wicked are doomed to destruction.
