. Nuh (Noah) Order among Prophets 2. Time Period 3000 BC (approx.) Significance Called 'Messenger of Determination,' Preached for 950 years, Warned before the flood Story: Noah was sent as a messenger to his people for 950 years. He called them to monotheism, but only a few believed in him. His people mocked and rejected him, yet he remained patient and steadfast. When they continued to reject him, Allah commanded Noah to build the Ark and take the believers and animals aboard before the great flood destroyed those who disbelieved. Lessons Patience in the face of rejection is crucial. The truth does not require majority acceptance. Persistence in conveying the message of Allah is an essential duty. Trust in Allah's plan brings salvation to the faithful.
