The Holy Quran 11:49 — Surah Hud

Arabic text

تِلْكَ مِنْ أَنۢبَآءِ ٱلْغَيْبِ نُوحِيهَآ إِلَيْكَ ۖ مَا كُنتَ تَعْلَمُهَآ أَنتَ وَلَا قَوْمُكَ مِن قَبْلِ هَـٰذَا ۖ فَٱصْبِرْ ۖ إِنَّ ٱلْعَـٰقِبَةَ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ

Translation

This story of Nooh عليه الصلاة والسلام is from the accounts (knowledge) of the unseen that We inspire you with (O Rasulullaah ﷺ). You and your people were unlikely to have knowledge about this before (the coming of the Qur'aan). So be steadfast (continue preaching Islaam and patiently bear the harassment and tortures of the Kuffaar just as Nooh عليه الصلاة والسلام had done) ! Indeed the final outcome will be in favour of those who have Taqwa.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

That is, it is one of the proofs of prophethood that such authentic and detailed accounts of earlier nations should be made to be heard from the tongue of an unlettered man. Just as the end of Nuh ﵇ and his companions turned out well, so the future of your [O Prophet ﷺ] companions is most bright and successful.
