Al-Qamar (The Moon)
Verse 9
Translation:
9. Before them the People of Noah rejected (their apostle): they rejected Our servant and said "Here is one possessed!" and he was driven out.
Notes (Tafseer):
5135. The story of Noah and the Flood is frequently referred to in the Qur-an. The passage which best illustrates this passage will be found in xi. 25-48. Note in that passage how they first insult and abuse him arrogantly; how he humbly argues with them; how they laugh him to scorn, as much as to say that he was a madman possessed of some evil spirit; and how the Flood comes and he is saved in the Ark, and the wicked are doomed to destruction.
