And agree on explaining the deception by saying they were non-Believers. So either she became a non-believer afterwards or Noah married an other wife later whom was not mentioned in the Torah.Īll tafsir books i consulted seem in consensus that no wife of any Prophet betrayed him in the meaning of illegal sexual intercourse. Ibn 'Ashur also referred to biblical quotes speaking about Noah's wife being on the arch (she was part of the people who were saved and safely left it when they went on board and left it) but the bible -apparently- didn't mention her later. And based on the story narrated in the old Testament (Genesis) it seems that she has betrayed him after the Noachian flood and Noah didn't know. The quran doesn't mention the story of Noah's wife in any other place. The example shows that this applies even to the wife's of the prophets and is also a sign for the wife's of our Messenger (Peace be upon him) whom have been mentioned at the beginning of the surah telling them don't be like the wife of Noah or the wife of Lut but do your best to be like the wife of Pharao and Mariam daughter of 'Imran (whom would be mentioned later). Ibn 'Ashour in his tafsir at-tahrir wa-tanwir says that this example is set by Allah as a warning for non-Beleivers to show them that they won't have any advocates by Allah no matter how near they are to Believers, so unless they believe they can't seek refuge or help from anybody but Allah. Similar was said by Ikrimah, Sa`id bin Jubayr, Ad-Dahhak and others. Rather, they betrayed them by refusing to follow their religion.'' "No wife of a Prophet ever committed adultery and fornication. As for the wife of Prophet Lut, she used to inform the people of the city (Sodom), who committed the awful sexual act (sodomy), whenever a guest was entertained by her husband.'' The wife of Prophet Nuh used to expose his secrets, informing his oppressive people whenever any person embraced the faith with Nuh. "They betrayed them by not following their religion. Surely, the wives of the Prophets were immune from committing illegal sexual intercourse on account of the honor that Allah has granted His Prophets, as we explained in Surah An-Nur. The part of the Ayah that reads, فَخَانَتَاهُمَا (but they both betrayed them) does not pertain to committing illegal sexual intercourse, but to refusing to accept the religion.
