Quote:
{23:23} And We had certainly sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship God; you have no deity other than Him; then will you not fear Him?"
{23:24} But the eminent among those who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a man like yourselves who wishes to take precedence over you; and if God had willed [to send a messenger], He would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our forefathers.
{23:25} He is not but a man possessed with madness, so wait concerning him for a time."
I suggest,
{23:23} And We had surely sent Noah to his people, and he said, "O my people, worship God; you have no deity other than Him; will you not then watch out [for Him]?"{23:24} But the crowd who disbelieved from his people said, "This is not but a human like you who wants to oblige you; and if God had willed, He surely would have sent down angels. We have not heard of this among our first forefathers."{23:25} "He is but a man in whom is madness, so waylay for him for a while."
