Nuh (Noah) said: "My Lord! They have disobeyed me, and followed one whose wealth and children give him no increase but only loss. 21 And they conspired an immense conspiracy. 22 And said, 'Never leave your gods and never leave Wadd or Suwa' or Yaghuth and Ya'uq and Nasr. 23 "They have already misled many; and grant Thou no increase to the wrong-doers but in straying (from their mark)." 24 So because of their sins they were drowned and admitted into the Fire. They found none to help them other than Allah. 25 Noah prayed, "O my Lord! Do not leave on earth a single one of those who deny the truth -- 26 "If You leave them, they will mislead Your slaves, and they will beget none but wicked disbelievers." 27 My Lord, forgive me and my parents and whosoever enters my house as a believer, and the believers, men and women alike; and do Thou not increase the evildoers save in ruin!' 28
