  4. Tell them the story of Noah, when he said to his people, “O my people, if my presence among you and my reminding you of Allah’s signs is too much for you, then in Allah I have put my trust.

  5. “But if you turn away, I have not asked you for any wage. My wage falls only on Allah, and I was commanded to be of those who submit.”
