Da'wah Noah

God said, "Man, (formerly) one nation. Then Allah sent prophets (to) deliver the glad tidings and warnings, and he sent down with them the Book containing the truth to judge between people on matters that they differed, (QS. Al -Baqarah [2]: 213).

Ibn Abbas narrated about the interpretation of this verse. He said, "The time lapse between Noah and Adam are ten centuries. They all carry the Shari'a of Allah and then broken to pieces. God then sent prophets as a bearer of glad tidings and a warner," however, after the vicious teasing Noah's people to worship other than God, then meluaslah polytheism and idolatry behavior among children of men. Allah says, "They said," Do not ever leave you (worship) gods and do you also not ever leave you (worship) Wadd, and do Suwa, Yaghuts, Ya'uq, and Nasr, ' " (QS. Noah [71]: 23).

Noah grew up in Iraq, among the people of kufr and misguided. God then sent Noah to his message in order to get them out of the mud and darkness thoughts straying towards the road user and bright light. He was the first apostle who was sent on earth as it is mentioned in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim hadith of the Prophet Muhammad's intercession.

Fallacy of the creed of Noah is straying first to occur on earth. The reason is, as mentioned Ibn Tabari, "In the beginning people who are between Adam and Noah was righteous. They also have obedient followers. However, when the prophets and pious people died, the followers of the said 'If we make their pictures, of course, we would be like to serve for remembering them.' Finally, they create an image of the prophets and the pious people ".

After the image maker died, there came another group that had been possessed by demons, saying, 'They worship the pious and ask derived hujan.'Lantas, everyone worshiped each worship idols and make it special. After some period, to be more convincing, they also make drawings as statues berjasad worship.

Then they worshiped a variety of ways of worship. Things like this then spread to many times when a number of followers alim drawing them. They will only feel humility 'when drawing the teacher and put in front of him. In fact, perhaps just after the master died, they made a statue and put in front of them. This was the beginning of a form of idolatry and sculpture.

Noah has called his people to the path of God for 950 years. Allah said, "Verily, We sent Noah to his people, and he stayed with them for a thousand years less fifty years," (QS. Al-'Ankabut [29]: 14).

He has been preaching day and night secretly and openly; preaching without feeling bored and tired, face ear deafness and the rigors of their hearts. Only a handful of the faithful, most of the others remain broken. Allah then revealed to him, "Revealed to Noah, 'Know, will not believe among your people, except those who really believe in (A), therefore thou shalt not grieve about what they do," (QS. Hud [ 11]: 36).

At that time, Noah then prayed to Allah sabagaimana terekan in His word, "Noah said, 'Ya Rabb! Leave not one among the infidels that live on the earth," (QS. Noah [71] : 26).

God then told Noah to make the ship in order to save himself and his people who believe from devastating floods, "Begin he (Noah) to build ships. Every time the leader of his people to walk through it, they mocked him. He (Noah) said, 'If you mock us, then we (too) will mock you as you mock (us). Then one day you will know who will be overwritten adzhab humiliating and (who) will be overwritten adzhab eternal. 'Until, when our command came and the furnace (kitchen) has shed water, We said, 'Muatkanlah into it (the ship) of an individual (animal) pair (male and female), and (also) family, except those who have been exposed statutes and prior (load anyway) the believers.' it turned out that people of faith who was with Noah just a little. and he said, 'Come you all into it (the ship) with (call) the name of Allah at the time of sailing and berthing. Indeed Rabbku Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. And the ship was sailing to bring them into the waves like mountains. And Noah called his son, when he (the child) is in far flung places, 'O my son, come (to the ship) with us, and not suffer along with the unbelievers. 'He (son) replied:' I will seek refuge in the mountains to keep me from the flood! '(Noah) said,' I had no protection from the punishment of Allah on this day besides Allah the All-Merciful. ' And wave a barrier between them; then he (the boy) among those who drowned. And commanded, "O earth, swallow your water, and O sky (rain) stop, 'and the water was venting, and the order was completed, and the ship was anchored on the mount Judi, and say,' Woe to the wrongdoers," ( QS. Hud [11]: 38-44).

Thus, hurricane befell the people of Noah who disbelieve, arrogant, and do mischief on earth. God saved Noah and his followers who believe when their ship docked on Mount Judi, in a place known by the name of Ibn Umar JaziraI. Currently, the site is a part of eastern Turkey (Mount Arafat).

Passengers got out and settle there for the first time after this new displacement, Prof. Shakir Mahmud said, "so the resettlement of inhabitants of the earth for the second time from the southern ar-Rafidin (Mesopotamia) to various mountainous areas in the north. The population ensued for the second time in various places". By doing so, the descendants of Noah of his children who had participated in the vessel increased.

Sam and his descendants headed southwest toward the Arabian peninsula and scattered there. Ham and his descendants set off towards the south and settled in the southern part of Iraq after the dry earth and began to look fertile again. Others follow those steps and some are scattered heading southeast toward India.

Meanwhile, the other to the southwest through the Strait of Bal el-Mandeb towards Africa. From there they headed north and various other places. Yafits, the third son of Noah who went with his descendants to the east and there is also heading west.

The story of the Flood Strikes in Classical and Modern Literature

Devastating floods that befell the people of Noah is a result of their kufr to God. This event is the most powerful events that occurred throughout history and most lasting event in the human soul. Allah says, "(Had We destroyed) the people of Noah when they rejected the apostles, We drowned them, and We made (the story) them a lesson for mankind. And We have prepared for the wrongdoers adzhab sad," (QS. Al- Furqan [25]: 37).

From here, we know that the devastating flood event was called the revelation of God in detail that was certainly true. The incident is told through the treasury even kept their civilization from year to year. The Sumerians are the first owner of the baton in recording such events. Then copy followed by the nations of Akkadian, Babylonian, and Assyrian.

The original manuscript of this event Sumerian language. Dr. Sausah Ahmad, in his book, Tarikh wa hadara Wadi ar-Rafidin menukis back the script summary as follows.
"The god was already made these floods. All this is a result of sin, guilt, and destruction of human actions. The gods were soon remove human existence on this earth by sending The catastrophic flooding."
It added that the incident occurred in southern Iraq by the end of the 3rd millennium BC.

Research on Noah's Ark has been mentioned in the magazine an-Nur al Islamiyya as disclosed Mahmud Mustafa. After six years of researching, the experts managed to find a new Noah's ark is mentioned in the Koran, precisely in the border areas of Turkey and Iran. This is consistent with the statement of the head of the research team. The Turkish government-was satisfied with the results of the study after many years researchers experienced a harsh rejection. Then the authorities make the place as a historical site in the field of archeology and approved the exhumation process was held there in 1414 H.

Not long ago, in a location that is explored found to contain material that resembles a boat buried. The boat size wider than the boat Queen Mary. Length reaches half a boat Queen Mary. This material objects found above an altitude of 7000 feet, equivalent to 2,134 m. It is a strange phenomenon for any type of vessel. The length of the boat reaches 515 feet and 139 feet lebal. The size is similar to the size specified in Article Six of the Book of Genesis that that measure God commanded Noah. Prophet Noah was told to build boats with a length of 300 feet and a width of 50 feet, while a cubit is equivalent to 45.7 cm.

In the vicinity of the location of the discovery of the boat, the experts from the United States and the Middle East found a large rock which on one side has been hollowed respectively. It is believed that it is the anchor stones in the past to maintain the balance of the ship. In addition, these areas are also tracked using radar. The result, it was found that chemical compounds are not commonly found, namely iron oxide.
Chief Scientist Department of Archaeology at the University of Ataturk Turkey claimed that the boat had labih than 100,000 years old and were made by humans. No doubt that this is Noah's boat.

Descendants of Noah

Noah had four sons namely Yafit, Sam, Ham, and Kan'an. Kan'anlah who went to the mountaintop refuge from flooding and eventually drowned. Regarding the other three sons, Ibn Kathir has mentioned that all the sons of Adam on earth comes from the three sons of Noah was left, namely Sam, Ham, and Yafits.

Imam Ahmad narrated that the Prophet said, "Sam is the father of the Arabs, Ham is the father of Ethiopia, and Yafits is the father of the Roman people." Imran bin Hushain narrated from the Prophet a hadith similar and included editorial follows: "What is meant by the Romans here is the first Roman that the Greeks were dinasabkan to Rumi bin Labthi bin Yunan bin Yafits son of Noah," (Ibn Kathir, al-Bidayah wa an-Nihayah).

In the book Nihayah al-Arab fi Ma'rifah Ansab al-'Arab al-Qalqasyandi mention that experts nasab (genealogical) and historians have agreed, the entire human race after Noah, not from the people who were with him in the boat , This is in accordance with the word of God, "(O) descendants of people that we brought Noah," (QS. Al-Isra '[17]: 3).

Therefore, they have all been destroyed and nothing left anymore. Experts agree that the whole human lineage came from Noah's three sons, according the word of God, "We made his descendants those who continue the descent," (QS. Ash-Saffat [37]: 77).

Yafits is the oldest son, Sam second child, son Noah and Ham was the youngest. All the people in this world back to one of the three of them, with differences of opinion in this matter.

Different Language

Abu Hanifa ad-Dainuri mention that at the time of King Jamm been a confusion of languages ​​in Babylon. Therefore, many descendants of Noah who lived there danmemenuhi the area. Initially, they all speak the language Syriac or Noah. But one day their tongues screwed, they changed their dialect, and partly mixed with other languages. Finally, each group speaking a language followed their descendants to this day.

They then leave Babylon and spread in different directions. The first group to leave the area of ​​Babylon are children Yafits son of Noah. They were seven brothers among at-Turk, Al-Khazr, Shaqlab, Taris, Minsak, Kamari, and Shin. They then take the east and north. After that the sons of Ham, son of Noah set out to follow. They are also seven brothers among Sind, Hind, Zanj, Qibthi, Habsy, nChange, and Kan'an. They headed toward the south and west. Meanwhile Sam bin Noah's children remain with their cousins, Jamm-King of Babylon, with all the changes and differences in their language.

Noah's Ark (Noah's Ark)

In Islam, Noah is one of the five important prophet (Ulul Azmi). He was ordered to remind his people to worship God when it embraced paganism with the worship of idols Suwa ', Yaghuts, Ya'uq, and Nasr. In the Qur'an, Noah was ruled for 950 years. The references of Noah in the Koran, scattered throughout the book. Surah in the Qur'an that are complete enough to tell the story of Noah is surah Hud verse 27 to 51.

Unlike the stories of Jews, who use the term "box" or "crate" to describe Noah's Ark, surah Al-'Ankabut verse 15 of the Quran as-Safinati call, a regular boat or ship, and are described further in surah Al-Qamar verse 13 as "the ark of boards and nails." Surah Hud verse 44 says that the ships landed on Mount Judi, which in the tradition of a hill near the town Jazirah ibn Umar on the east bank of the Tigris River in the province of Mosul, Iraq. Abdul Hasan Ali ibn al-Husayn Masudi (died 956) says that the landing place of the ark could be seen in his time. Masudi also says that the ark was started its journey in Kuffah in central Iraq and sailed to Mecca, and there the boat was circling the Kaaba, before finally landing on Gambling. Surah Hud verse 41 says, "And Noah said, 'Come ye to it with the name of Allah at the time of sailing and berthing.'" Writing Abdullah bin 'Umar al-Baidawi 13th century states that Noah said, "In the Name of God ! " when he wants to move the ark, and the same word when he wanted the ark was stopped.

Flood was sent by God as an answer to prayer Noah that generation that evil must be destroyed, but because Noah is correct, then he continued to spread the warning, and 70 pagans repent, and enter into the Ark with him, so that overall the existing human in it are 78 people (ie all 70 people plus eight members of Noah's family itself). All 70 people did not have children, and the whole of humanity after the Flood are descendants of Noah's three sons. Sons (or grandsons, according to some sources) that the four named Kana'an including the pagans, and thus helping to sink.

Baidawi gives the size of the ark is 300 cubits long and 50 cubits wide, and explained that in the beginning in the first level of a three-stage placed the animals, wild and domesticated, at the level of the second-placed man, and a third of the birds. On each sheet there is the name of a prophet board. Three missing planks, symbolizing three prophets, were brought from Egypt by Og, son of Anak, the only one that allowed the giant flood survivors. Adam's body was brought to the center to separate the men from the women.

Noah's Ark was on for five or six months, and in the end he pulled out a crow. But the raven stopped to feast on the flesh-eating carrion, and therefore Noah cursed him and put out the dove, which since time immemorial has been known as man's best friend. Masudi wrote that Allah has commanded the earth to absorb the water, and certain parts were slow to obey this order obtain seawater as a punishment and therefore becomes dry and there is no life. Water that is not absorbed by the earth to form the sea, so that the water of the flood was still there.

Noah left the ark on the 10th of Muharram, and he and his family and friends to build a town at the foot of Mount Judi named Thamanin ( "eighty"), from their number.

Review the history of the Prophet Noah
From historical records the history of ancient mentioned Rafidin country has crossed by three times:
1. Age of ancient stone. An archaeologist named Svelli has found relics of this era in 1954 AD

2. The modern Stone Age (civilization Jarmo). Bret Watt, an archaeologist in 1948 AD have discovered one of the most important centers of this age in the village of Jarmo, located west of the city of Sulaimaniyah. Historians have to know the history of this era center around the year 6500 BC, the period after the appearance of the village communities.

In the modern stone age civilization has emerged Tel Hassunah age, which is located south of Mosul. This time period around the year 5750 BC. An archaeologist, Mallowan in 1931 AD has found some samples that illustrate civilization Tel Hassunah in Niwana, near Mosul. And also found a few other samples of this civilization in some places in the north of Iraq.

And at Tel Halaf, near the area of ​​Ain Ra'sul Syria, where al-Khabur river source, a German archaeologist, Paron (Pone Ophneim) has found some samples that reflect the modern stone age civilization.

3. Copper Stone Age in the valley ar-Rafidin. The era of civilization is reflected in three important places, which sequentially as shown below.

* Tel Abied, near the ancient city of Ur, south of ar-Rafidin country, which was discovered by the British museum expedition, led by Dr. Houl and under the supervision of Leonard Wooly (historian). Ur found in sculptures made of soil that has religious values.

* Civilization era Uruk (al-Wuraka '), which was discovered by a German expedition.

* Civilization Nashar Jamdah times. Some relics have been found by scientists Linkdone in 1920 AD in Tel Sagheer, which is located near the ancient city of Keisy called "Jumdah Nashar".

At the end of this age, as mentioned in the history books, there has been a huge cyclone that hit the country accompanied by flooding Maa Bainan Nahrain (country located between two rivers). Various excavations at Ur, Uruk, Keisy, and Syurubak, set the flash flood events between age and the age Abied first descent. Major flooding occurred at the end of time Jumdah Nashar. An archaeologist, Wooly have discovered a layer of mud thick enough in the city of Ur with a depth of two and a half meters. Wooly also found some relics of human habitation in the upper layers of mud and also underneath. From that he concluded that the findings of this mud brought by the water of the Tigris and Euphrates.

Stories hurricanes mentioned in scripture several times earlier than this typhoon. By quoting from De Morghan scientists, archaeologists concluded Countonoe muthir events in the days that followed poliustussin era by era jalid at the end of lap four, where many people perished. Sheets note found in the library of the Assyrian Baniba'al has perpetuated this typhoon.

Noah in the Koran
In the Koran, the name of Noah, mentioned in 43 verses in 28 letters.

Summary Story of Noah

Noah was a prophet after the third Adam, and Idris. He is the ninth offspring of Adam. His father was the son of Lamak Mutawasylah bin Idris. Noah received a prophetic revelation of God in the future "fatrah" void period between two prophets where humans typically are gradually forgetting the teachings of the religion brought by Prophet left them and returned shirk and leave the good deed, do munkar and disobedience.

The Noah did not escape from the process, so that when Noah comes in the middle of them, they were worshiping idols. Namely sculptures made by their own hands worshiped as a God who can bring goodness and benefits and reject all the miseries and misfortunes. Dipertuhankan idols, according to their beliefs, have supernatural powers. The idols are given the names of successive according to the will and taste of their ignorance. Noah preaching to his people, who are far astray by the devil, invited them to leave shirk (idolatry left) and returned to the monotheistic worship of Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.

But even though Noah has tried with all his might preach to his people with all wisdom, skill and patience in every occasion, day or night by way of whispering or blatantly and openly, quite a few of his people to receive his message and following the invitation.

Noah led them out of the wrong path and the right path to the dark and the light, teach them the laws of the Shari'a and the religion revealed by God to him. But in a long time (hundreds of years), Noah did not managed to resuscitate and pulled his people to follow and accept his message, tauhid and worship God, but a small group of his people. Hope Noah consciousness of his people turned out increasingly reduced. At that time God told Noah to no longer ignore the question of his people, for they will accept the punishment of God by drowning. And God commanded Noah to make a big boat.

After receiving God's command to make a boat / ship large, Noah immediately gathered his followers and their start collecting material needed for that purpose. They diligently and assiduously worked day and night on shipbuilding ordered it. Although Noah had been away from the city and its people, in order to work quietly without interruption to complete the creation of the ship, but he did not escape the jeers and taunts of his people were accidental or deliberate through the making of the ship.

After completion of the work of shipbuilding, Noah received a revelation from God, "Ready-prepared you to your ship, when it's my commands and signs from me then immediately transport with you in your boat and your relatives and bring two pairs of every kind creatures on earth and belayarlah with my permission. "

Then memancur tercurahlah from the sky and from the earth, the water is swift and devastating. And in a short time has become a major flood hit the entire towns and villages, come ashore for a low or high up to reach the top of hills so there is no shelter from the flood was so terrible except Noah's Ark which has been filled with the faithful and the pair being rescued by Noah at God's command. With the accompaniment of "Bismillahi majraha mursaha wa", belayarlah Noah's Ark at the pace down a sea of ​​water, against the wind which sometimes gentle and sometimes violent and noisy.

When Noah was on the ship's deck consider the weather and see the unbelievers of his people were lying on the surface of the water, suddenly saw the body of his eldest son by him named Kan'aan. At that moment, without realizing it, there arose a sense of love and affection of a father to his biological son who is in a state of anxious face death wave swallowed. Noah spontaneously, driven by his inner voice screaming with all her voice calling his son. Kan'aan, which has been lost and have poisoned demon seduction and incitement his people were proud and stubborn strongly reject the invitation and call his father. Finally Kan'aan struck a ferocious waves and they are gone from his eyes; the one down to the ocean water by his friends and dignitaries that his people were ungodly.

Noah grieve and mourn his son in a state not believe in God. He sigh and cry out to God. Him Allah said, "O Noah! Lo! He is your son was not including the family, because he has deviated from your teaching, breaking command refused dakwahmu and follow the footsteps of those who disbelieve than your kind. Cross out the name of your family. Only those who have received dakwahmu follow the path you and have faith in me can you enter and classify the ranks of the family whom I promised his protection and secure lives. As for those who deny treatise mu, deniers dakwahmu and has followed his own lust, and the demands of the Devil, they would perish serving a sentence which I have set even though they are top of the mountain. So do you sometimes ask you about something you do not know. I remind you that you do not to belong to the class of people who are ignorant. "

Noah immediately realized after receiving a warning from God, he deeply regretted the omission and negligence and overlooking to God for forgiveness and maghfirahnya.

After the flood it reached the peak of ferocity, the exhausted people of Noah perish disbelieving and unjust. In accordance with the will and law of God, surutlah sea of ​​water absorbed by the Earth and then bertambatlah Noah's ark on the hill "Judie".

Noah lived in the south of Iraq, which is now located in the city of Kufa.
Gambling is a hill facing the peninsula of Ibn Umar, who is now the border of Syria (Syria) - Turkey, on the east banks of the river Tigris. Judi hill is visible from the Ainu Diwar, Syria.
