In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.
إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا نُوحًا إِلَىٰ قَوْمِهِ أَنْ أَنْذِرْ قَوْمَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ (1)
Indeed, We sent Nuh to his people, (saying): Warn your people before there comes to them a painful torture.

قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ إِنِّي لَكُمْ نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ (2)
He (Nuh) said: O my people! Indeed, I am to you an obvious warner.

يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرْكُمْ إِلَىٰ أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ۚ إِنَّ أَجَلَ اللَّهِ إِذَا جَاءَ لَا يُؤَخَّرُ ۖ لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ (4)
He will forgive you of your sins and delay you for a specified term; indeed, when the term of Allah comes, it will not be postponed, if you only knew.

فَلَمْ يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَائِي إِلَّا فِرَارًا (6)
But my call did not increase them except in flight.
[Al Quran ; 71:6]
وَإِنِّي كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوا أَصَابِعَهُمْ فِي آذَانِهِمْ وَاسْتَغْشَوْا ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَصَرُّوا وَاسْتَكْبَرُوا اسْتِكْبَارًا (7)
And indeed, whenever I have called them that You may forgive them, they made their fingers in their ears and covered themselves with their garments and persisted and were arrogant with (great) arrogance.

While He created you in phases?

Because of their sins, they were drowned and were admitted into a fire, so they did not find for them other than Allah (any) helpers.
