Order Of Revelation 74, Verses: 118
23 0] In The name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
23 1] Successful indeed are The Believers
23 2] who are reverent during their Contact Prayers (Salat).
23 3] And they avoid vain talk.
23 4] And they give their obligatory charity (Zakat).
23 5] And they maintain their chastity.
23 6] Only with their spouses, or those who are rightfully theirs, do they have sexual relations; they are not to be blamed.
23 7] Those who transgress these limits are The transgressors.
23 8] When it comes to deposits entrusted to them, as well as any agreements they make, they are trustworthy.
23 9] And they observe their Contact Prayers (Salat) regularly.
23 10] Such are The inheritors.
23 11] They will inherit Paradise, wherein they abide forever.
Accurate Embryology
23 12] We created The human being from a certain kind of mud.
23 13] Subsequently, we reproduced him from a tiny drop, that is placed into a well protected repository.
23 14] Then we developed The drop into a hanging (embryo), then developed The hanging (embryo) into a bite-size (fetus), then created The bite-size (fetus) into bones, then covered The bones with flesh. We thus produce a new creature. Most blessed is GOD, The best Creator.
23 15] Then, later on, you die.
23 16] Then, on The Day of Resurrection, you will be resurrected.
The Seven Universes
23 17] We created above you seven universes in layers, and we are never unaware of a single creature in them.
Innumerable Blessings From God
23 18] We send down from The sky water, in exact measure, then we store it in The ground. Certainly, we can let it escape.
23 19] With it, we produce for you orchards of date palms, grapes, all kinds of fruits, and various foods.
23 20] Also, a tree native to Sinai produces oil, as well as relish for The eaters.
23 21] And The livestock should provide you with a lesson. We let you drink (milk) from their bellies, you derive other benefits from them, and some of them you use for food.
23 22] On them, and on The ships, you ride.
Noah
23 23] We sent Noah to his people, saying, "O my people, worship GOD. You have no other god beside Him. Would you not be righteous?"
23 24] The leaders who disbelieved among his people said, "This is no more than a human like you, who wants to gain prominence among you. Had GOD willed, He could have sent down angels. We never heard of anything like this from our ancestors.
23 25] "He is simply a man gone crazy. Just ignore him for awhile."
23 26] He said, "My Lord, grant me victory, for they have disbelieved me."
23 27] We then inspired him: "Make The watercraft under our watchful eyes, and in accordance with our inspiration. When our command comes, and The atmosphere boils up, put on it a pair of every kind (of your domesticated animals), and your family, except those condemned to be doomed. Do not speak to Me on behalf of those who transgressed; they will be drowned.

23 27 The story tellers have created a mockery of Noah's history. Noah's ark was a flat watercraft made of logs, ied together with primitive ropes (54:13), The flood was local, around The Dead Sea area, and The animals were Noah's domesticated animals.
23 28] "Once you are settled, together with those who are with you, on The watercraft, you shall say, `Praise GOD for saving us from The evil people.'
23 29] "And say, `My Lord, let me disembark onto a blessed location; You are The best deliverer.' "
23 30] These should provide sufficient proofs for you. We will certainly put you to The test.
23 31] Subsequently, we established another generation after them.
23 32] We sent to them a messenger from among them, saying, "You shall worship GOD. You have no other god beside Him. Would you not be righteous?"
23 33] The leaders among his people who disbelieved and rejected The idea of The Hereafter - although we provided for them generously in this life - said, "This is no more than a human being like you. He eats from what you eat, and drinks as you drink.
23 34] "If you obey a human being like you, then you are really losers.
23 35] "Does he promise you that, after you die and turn into dust and bones, you will come out again?
23 36] "Impossible, impossible indeed is what is promised to you.
