Hûd
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE[11:32]
[But the great ones] said: "O Noah! Thou hast contended with us in argument, and hast [needlessly] prolonged our controversy: bring upon us, therefore, that with which thou dost threaten us, if thou art a man of truth!"

* v.32 : Sc., “without convincing us” (as is brought out fully in 71:5-6). The mounting annoyance with Noah on the part of his unbelieving compatriots has already been alluded to in his saying, “If my presence [among you] and my announcement of God’s messages are repugnant to you...,” etc. (see 10:71).
* See the end of verse 26 above.
