Hazrat Nooh (A.S), known as Noah in other scriptures, is one of the earliest and most significant Prophets in Islam. According to the Holy Qur’an, particularly in Surah Al-Ankabut (29:14), Hazrat Nooh (A.S) preached the message of Allah (SWT) to his people for 950 years. This duration specifically refers to the years he spent calling his people towards Tawheed (the oneness of Allah), guiding them away from shirk (polytheism) and sinful practices.

While his total lifespan may have been longer, the Qur’an emphasizes the 950 years of his Prophetic mission, highlighting his extraordinary patience, perseverance, and dedication in conveying Allah’s message despite facing rejection and hostility from most of his people. His story is a powerful lesson in steadfastness, faith, and commitment to truth.

Hazrat Nooh (A.S) is one of the five Ulu’l Azm Prophets (Prophets of great determination) in Islam, chosen for their extraordinary endurance in delivering the divine message. The event of the Great Flood during his time remains a significant part of Islamic history, illustrating divine justice and mercy.
