Noah is telling his son, oh my son

00:00:02 --> 00:00:04

come and ride with us.

00:00:04 --> 00:00:05

Come.

00:00:06 --> 00:00:08

And don't be from the disbelievers.

00:00:08 --> 00:00:10

You know what the son replied?

00:00:18 --> 00:00:20

I'm going to climb at the top of

00:00:20 --> 00:00:22

the mountain. I'll do mountain climbing.

00:00:23 --> 00:00:24

I'll be hiking up. I'll go to the

00:00:24 --> 00:00:26

top of the mountain. It will save me

00:00:26 --> 00:00:28

from the water. What's the big deal? Every

00:00:28 --> 00:00:30

time water comes, we can go to a

00:00:30 --> 00:00:33

high area and there won't be any water

00:00:33 --> 00:00:33

in the high area.

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

Nuh alayhi wa sallam looked at his son

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

and says, You know what?

00:00:44 --> 00:00:46

Nobody is going to be saved from the

00:00:46 --> 00:00:49

command of Allah on this day, except the

00:00:49 --> 00:00:51

one whom Allah has mercy on.

00:00:51 --> 00:00:54

And suddenly what happened, a massive wave

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

came

00:00:56 --> 00:00:57

between them.

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

And that young fellow drowned.

00:01:00 --> 00:01:03

Up to this day, the echo of Nuh

00:01:03 --> 00:01:07

salam's words remains with us in the Quran.

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

Allah mentions it not so that you can

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

say nice story, but you ask yourself how

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

many times have people reminded you and I

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

to do good and to quit the bad

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

because it will there will be a day

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

when it will be too late. But we

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23

don't listen to the echoes, and we don't

00:01:23 --> 00:01:24

want that enlightenment.
