5th Entry: Noah's Ark

Hi everyone. How about my previous entry? Did you enjoyed reading it? Today i will continue with my 5th myth that happens to be true which is about Noah's Ark. Noah ark is describes as a big ark that carries a million living things during the horrendous flood long time ago. Even though there are few agencies claimed that this myth is nonsense, however they don't have a strong argument to against it. This story has been repeated in different religions but tells almost the same stories. Bible for Christian's and Quran for Muslim's also stated this incident.

Illustrations of how Noah's Ark look like.

Noah's Ark verses from Bible:

Then God said to Noah,  “Come out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives. 17 Bring out every kind of living creature that is with you the birds, the animals, and all the creatures that move along the ground so they can multiply on the earth and be fruitful and increase in number on it.”

The structure claimed to be a Noah's Ark near the Mount Ararat


Noah's Ark verses from Holy Quran:

"Prophet Noah (peace be on him), his building of the Ark, the people who joined him and the flood in detail. The water started gushing out from a particular oven, followed by a large number of other springs as well as a heavy downpour from the sky." (verse 44 of Surah Hud 11)

So the Ark floated with them on the waves (towering) like mountains,
and Noah called out to his son, who had separated himself (from the rest):
"O my son! embark with us, and be not with the unbelievers!"

The son replied: "I will betake myself to some mountain: it will save me from the water."
Noah said: "This day nothing can save, from the command of Allah,
any but those on whom He hath mercy!" And the waves came between them,
and the son was among those overwhelmed in the Flood.
-- Sura 11:42-43



In recent years there have been some renewed attempts to locate the Ark.
