We mention some famous incidents related to Surah Noah

1. Narrated to Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah:

The Holy Prophet (PBUH) said, “I have been given five things which were not given to anyone else before me. 1. Allah made me victorious by awe (by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one month’s journey. -2. The earth has been made for me (and for my followers) a place for praying and a thing to perform Tayammum; therefore anyone of my followers can pray wherever the time of a prayer is due. -3. The booty has been made Halal (lawful) for me, yet it was not legal for anyone else before me. -4. I have been given the right of intercession (on the Day of Resurrection). 5. Every Prophet used to be sent to his nation only, but I have been sent to all humanity.

(Sahih al-Bukhari: 335)

2. Narratedto Hazrat Ibn Abbas:

All the idols that Noah’s people worshiped were worshipped by the Arabs later on. As for the idol Wadd, it was worshipped by the tribe of Kalb at Daumat-al-Jandal; Suwa` was the idol of (the tribe of) Hudhail; Yaghouth was worshipped by (the tribe of) Murad and then by Bani Ghutaif at Al-Jurf near Saba; Yauq was the idol of Hamdan, and Nasr was the idol of Himyar, the branch of Dhi-al-Kala .`The names (of the idols) formerly belonged to some pious men of the people of Noah, and when they died, Satan inspired their people to (prepare and place idols at the places where they used to sit and to call those idols by their names. The people did so, but the idols were not worshipped till those people (who initiated them) had died, and the origin of the idols had become obscure; after that, people began worshipping them.

(Sahih al-Bukhari: 4920)

3. Narrated to Ibn Shamasa Mahri that:

We went to Amr bin al-As, and he was about to die. He wept for a long time and turned his face towards the wall. His son said: Did the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him not give you tidings of this? Did the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) not give you tidings of this? He (the narrator) said: He turned his face (towards the audience) and said: The best thing we can count upon is the testimony that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Verily I have passed through three phases. (The first one) I found myself averse to none else more than I was averse to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), and there was no other desire stronger in me than the one that I should overpower him and kill him. Had I died in this state, I would have been one of the denizens of free. When Allah instilled the love of Islam in my heart, I came to the Apostle (PBUH) and said: Stretch out your right hand so that may pledge my allegiance to you. He stretched out his right hand; I withdrew my hand, He (the Holy Prophet) said: What has happened to you, O ‘Amar? Replied: I intend to lay down some condition. He asked: What condition do you intend to put forward? I said: should be granted a pardon. He (the Holy Prophet) observed: Are you not aware that Islam wipes out all the previous (misdeeds)? Verily migration wipes out all the previous (misdeeds), and certainly, the pilgrimage wipes out all the (last) misdeeds. And then no one as or dear to me than the Messenger of Allah and none was more sublime in my eyes than he, Never could I, pluck the courage to catch a full glimpse of his face due to its splendor. So if I am asked to describe his features, I cannot do that, for I have not eyed him fully. Had I died in this state had every reason to hope that I would have bee among the dwellers of Paradise. Then we were responsible for certain things (in the light of which) I cannot know what is in store for me. When I die, let neither female mourner nor fire accompany me. When you bury me, fill my grave well with earth, then stand around it for the time within which a camel is slaughtered. Its meat is distributed so that I may enjoy your intimacy and (in your company) ascertain what answer I can give to Allah’s messengers (angels).

(Sahih Muslim: 121)
