(Recite unto them the story of Noah) in the Qur'an, (when he told his people: O my people! If my sojourn (here)) if my extended stay with you (and my reminding you) and my warning of you (by Allah's revelations) from the punishment of Allah (are an offence unto you, in Allah have I put my trust) I rely in and consign my matter to Allah, (so decide upon your course of action) unite upon one decision and one matter, (you and your partners) and seek the help of your idols. (Let not your course of action be in doubt for you) do not make your decision and matter too vague for yourselves. (Then come forth against me, give me no respite) do not wait.
- 10:7171
۞ وَاتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ نُوحٍ إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِ يَا قَوْمِ إِنْ كَانَ كَبُرَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَقَامِي وَتَذْكِيرِي بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ فَعَلَى اللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ فَأَجْمِعُوا أَمْرَكُمْ وَشُرَكَاءَكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَكُنْ أَمْرُكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ غُمَّةً ثُمَّ اقْضُوا إِلَيَّ وَلَا تُنْظِرُونِ
Recount to them the story of Noah when he said to his people: "O people, if you find my staying with you and warning through God's signs, unbearable to you, know that I have reposed my trust in God. So plan your move, and call your associates, and make certain of your plan; then do whatever you intend against me, allowing me no respite.
