Page 168 - The Resting of Ark on Mount Judi

In this lesson of Sūrah Al-A’rāf, verses 144-149, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explores the profound lessons of the aftermath of the flood and its divine significance. These verses recount the resting of Nūḥ’s عَلَیهِ‌السَّلام ark on Mount Judi, symbolising Allāh’s mercy upon the believers and His justice upon the disbelievers. They also highlight the interaction between Nūḥ عَلَیهِ‌السَّلام and Allāh عَزَّوَجَلَّ regarding his son, affirming that righteousness, not lineage, determines true family. The narrative concludes with a powerful reminder of Allāh’s omniscience and the authenticity of the revelation given to the Prophet ﷺ, urging patience and trust in His divine plan.
