📖 Commentary of Verse 26 (Surah Nuh 71:26)

“And Nuh said: ‘O my Lord! Do not leave upon the earth a single dweller from the disbelievers.’” (Kanzul Imaan)


✅ Final Curse Against Disbelievers (40)

🗣️ Hazrat Nuh's (On whom be peace) Supplication – After enduring prolonged rejection and mockery, he invoked Allah (اللَّهُ ) to completely wipe out disbelievers from the earth.

🌍 Total Removal Requested – Not a single disbeliever should remain on earth to mislead others or continue in sin.

😈 Exception of Shaytaan & Jinn – This curse did not include Shaitaan or infidel jinns, as:

  • They are not residents of the earth in the same way as humans.

  • Hazrat Nuh (On whom be peace) was sent as a messenger to humans, not jinn.

  • Shaitaan was already granted life till the Day of Judgment by Allah (اللَّهُ ).
