  • The Ones Who Perished (Part 1 of 2): the Fate of the People of Noah, Sheba, Iram and Salih
    The Ones Who Perished (part 1 of 2): The Fate of the People of Noah, Sheba, Iram and Salih “Each one of them We seized for their crime: against some We sent a violent tornado, some were caught by a mighty blast; some we caused the earth to swallow up, and some We drowned It was not God Who wronged them, but they who wronged themselves.” (Quran 29:40) Noah and the Ark An archeological study found the above 500 foot-long boat-shaped formation atop Mount Judi[1], some 20 miles south of Mount Ararat (where the Bible places the Noah‟s Ark). It has horizontal deck-support timbers at consistent intervals and evenly-spaced indentations resembling decaying rib timbers. Natural causes do not make such symmetrical formations! “And it was said: „O earth! Swallow up your water,‟ and „O sky! Withhold (your rain).‟ And it was said: And the water was made to subside, and God‟s Decree was fulfilled. And it (Noah‟s Ark) came to rest upon (Mount) Judi...” (Quran 11:44) All the wicked peoples of the earth were drowned while believer and beast were carried with Noah in his Ark. The ship remained intact upon Judi right until the dawn of Islam. What has remained today is still a thing to behold. The Temple at Sheba Another people whose sins were answered with a devastating flood were the People of Saba‟ (Sheba). They turned away from the Creator, God, to worship others. Now, all that remains of their once prosperous civilization (at Marib, Yemen) are the broken sluices of their dam, some Sabaean inscriptions, and the ruins of their temple.[2] (below).
