At first, his nation used to be believers, who worshipped
Allah Alone and believed in the resurrection and the Last Day, and they were
doers of good deeds. This nation died and people grieved over them for they
were pious and of high morals. As a result, they created some statues to
resemble these dead pious men who had passed away, and they called them: Wad,
Sewaa�, Yaghuth, Ya�oq and Nassr. People found solace in these statues, and
they made them a symbol of this group of righteous men who had passed away.
People in the city venerated these images, as they wanted to show great esteem
to them. Time passed, parents died and sons grew older. They started increasing
the amount of esteem and veneration they had towards these statues by bowing
down to them. These statues occupied a large part of the hearts of the people.
Consequently, the second generation began worshipping these images, and they
described them as gods to which they must prostrate and be submissive. They
worshipped the statues as deities and many of them went far, far astray. Thus,
Allah sent Noah (pbuh) to them to show them the straight path, forbid them from
worshiping idols, and guide them back to the worship of Allah. Noah came before
his people and said: {and he said: �O my people! Worship All�h! You have no
other Il�h (God) but Him (Isl�mic Monotheism).}(Al-Mu�min�n:23) The history of messengers |
