#2 story of prophet Nuh (AS)

I mentioned the story of prophet Adam (AS) last time. Now we are going to look at prophet Nuh (AS). Prophet Nuh (AS) was the second prophet in history. He is known for building the arc. The ship he used to protect living species from the great flood. Prophet Nuh (AS) was a believer and he lived for 950 years. Adam (AS) on the second hand lived for around 1000 years. Prophet Nuh (AS) was brought to this world to guide his people. This time, it was when people first started worshipping idols and all other kind of things that resulted in shirk. So now, Allah sent his second prophet to guide his people. Prophet Nuh (AS) saw how people were talking and praying to idols. So he decided to help them out by guiding them to the truth. Then, he started preaching and preaching and preaching to the non believers. One day, they started getting tired. And one of them said "How dare you disrespect our lord". And another person said "Yes, you have no rights". But Nuh (AS) still kept preaching. And another person said "If you don't stop preaching, we will stone you". But prophet Nuh (AS) still kept preaching. So the people had enough and finally, they started stoning the prophet. And also, they used sticks to beat him. And they were shouting on Nuh (AS) to start worshipping the idols they worship. But Nuh (AS) still denied no matter how painful they torture him. So, at the night when Nuh (AS) was praying, Allah told him to build a ship (a huge one). So Nuh (AS) did not know how to build a ship. So the next day, Nuh (AS) gathered his Muslim fellowship to build a ship. But before that, they had to plant many trees. They continued planting them for 150 years. Until they were done. When the non believers saw Nuh (AS) working hard and carrying sticks from one place to another, they started making jest of him. But Nuh (AS) was quiet and remained calm. So, because he did not know how to build a ship, they started constructing plans for the shape and size of the ship. So they cut the wood and replanted the trees and started working. After 6-9 months, it was finished. And Nuh (AS) was now told that "the big flood will start when you see water coming out of your wife's stove". Nuh (AS) wife and part of his other children were non believers. Nuh (AS) was waiting until it finally happened. And then it started raining. And Nuh (AS) shouted "everyone aboard the ship"! And all the Muslims did. But the non believers said "Aboard the ship. Just for a small rain"? And they started laughing. Later on, it began to rise up and the non believers now realised what they were talking about. There were 3 apartments. One for animals, one for humans and one for birds. And when the water was flooding the place, the non believers started climbing mountains and Nuh (AS) wife and second son was climbing mountains. Nuh (AS) said "Stop climbing mountains, Aboard the ship". And they denied, thinking the mountains could save them from the great flood. But sooner, it engulfed them and the other non believers climbing mountains. And after some while, the rain stopped and Nuh (AS) said "Bismillah". And the ship started floating. It was months and years in the ship and Nuh (AS) sent a bird to search for land. The bird did not come back, and after sometime, the bird landed back to the ship with a leaf on its beak. So Nuh (AS) was finally happy because there us land. And after searching, they found it and Nuh (AS) said "bismillah" Once again, and the ship stopped floating. After the water came down, they realised all the animals and people and Nuh (AS) started offering prayers to Allah (SWT).
