It didn't take long before the oceans completely conquered the once-dry land. Prophet Nuh ( عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ ) witnessed the terrible calamity that had befallen his people.

THE FLOOD
Soon after, heavy rains began to pour down from the angry skies, and water began to rise through every crack on earth. It didn't take long before the oceans completely conquered the once-dry land.
Prophet Nuh ( عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ ) witnessed the terrible calamity that had befallen his people. He knew the disbelievers had no escape from the wrath of Allah (سُبْحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ). Amongst the disbelievers was Prophet Nuh's wife and son, who refused to board his ark.

“I will get to the mountain; it will save me from the water.”
Nuh ( عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ ) answered:
“This day there is no saviour from the Decree of Allah except him on whom He has mercy.”
Before long, Nuh's son was engulfed by the angry waves, never to be seen again.
