Noah prayed, “My Lord! Help me, because they have denied ˹me˺.” So We inspired him: “Build the Ark under Our ˹watchful˺ Eyes and directions. Then when Our command comes and the oven bursts ˹with water˺, take on board a pair from every species along with your family— except those against whom the decree ˹to drown˺ has already been passed. And do not plead with Me for those who have done wrong, for they will surely be drowned.”
Then when you and those with you have settled in the Ark, say, “All praise is for Allah, Who saved us from the wrongdoing people.” And pray, “My Lord! Allow me a blessed landing, for You are the best accommodator.” Quran 23:26~29 Surah al-Mu`minun (The Believers)
Surah al-Mu’minum [The Believers] takes its name after the first Ayat, قَدْ أَفْلَحَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ “Certainly will the Believers have succeeded.” [23:1].
This Surah has 118 Ayat.

قَالَ رَبِّ ٱنصُرۡنِی بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ فَأَوۡحَیۡنَاۤ إِلَیۡهِ أَنِ ٱصۡنَعِ ٱلۡفُلۡكَ بِأَعۡیُنِنَا وَوَحۡیِنَا فَإِذَا جَاۤءَ أَمۡرُنَا وَفَارَ ٱلتَّنُّورُ فَٱسۡلُكۡ فِیهَا مِن كُلࣲّ زَوۡجَیۡنِ ٱثۡنَیۡنِ وَأَهۡلَكَ إِلَّا مَن سَبَقَ عَلَیۡهِ ٱلۡقَوۡلُ مِنۡهُمۡۖ وَلَا تُخَـٰطِبۡنِی فِی ٱلَّذِینَ ظَلَمُوۤا۟ إِنَّهُم مُّغۡرَقُونَ فَإِذَا ٱسۡتَوَیۡتَ أَنتَ وَمَن مَّعَكَ عَلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ فَقُلِ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِی نَجَّىٰنَا مِنَ ٱلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِینَ وَقُل رَّبِّ أَنزِلۡنِی مُنزَلࣰا مُّبَارَكࣰا وَأَنتَ خَیۡرُ ٱلۡمُنزِلِینَ
In this Surah people are invited to accept and follow the Prophet. This is the central theme of the Surah. It speaks about the character of true believers and assures that they will be the real successful people. It draws attention to various stages of human creation, to many other universal signs. Then it takes some of the stories of other prophets and tells us that they also preached the same message.
نوحؑ نے کہا "پروردگار، ان لوگوں نے جو میری تکذیب کی ہے اس پر اب تو ہی میری مدد فرما" ہم نے اس پر وحی کی کہ "ہماری نگرانی میں اور ہماری وحی کے مطابق کشتی تیار کر پھر جب ہمارا حکم آ جائے اور تنور ابل پڑے تو ہر قسم کے جانوروں میں سے ایک ایک جوڑا لے کر اس میں سوار ہو جا، اور اپنے اہل و عیال کو بھی ساتھ لے سوائے اُن کے جن کے خلاف پہلے ہی فیصلہ ہو چکا ہے، اور ظالموں کے معاملہ میں مجھ سے کچھ نہ کہنا، یہ اب غرق ہونے والے ہیں
پھر جب تو اپنے ساتھیوں سمیت کشتی پر سوار ہو جائے تو کہہ، شکر ہے اُس خدا کا جس نے ہمیں ظالم لوگوں سے نجات دی اور کہہ، پروردگار، مجھ کو برکت والی جگہ اتار اور تُو بہترین جگہ دینے والا ہے"

The character of the Believers. Various stages of human creation and Allah’s signs in the universe.
The Message of Prophet Noah, his people’s response and then the flood.
Generations were raised after Prophet Noah. Many prophets were sent among them. Then came Prophet Moses and Aaron and then came Jesus – peace be upon them all.
All prophets are one Ummah and preached the same religion. Those who are affluent think that they are also the righteous people, but the righteous are only those who do the good deeds.
Everything in the heaven and earth belongs to Allah.
Prophet’s job is to continue presenting the message of Allah.
