THE EXAMPLE OF PROPHET NOAH IN SOCIAL REFORM EFFORTS

The story of the prophet and his people, which is a feature of universality, is included in the Holy Quran under the name Qissa, in other sacred books, and forms an example of all eras with the meaning they carry. A society that opposes the creator and behaves in a way that would overturn his order, worshiping idols made by his own hands and directing others to blasphemy along with themselves is doomed to divine wrath by constantly exhibiting behaviors that would upset the social balance. One of these examples, the people of Noah, is an example and an example for representatives of all times, both because it is included in the sacred texts of the heavenly religions and because it is mentioned as an example in texts in addition to religion. Nowadays, with archaeological discoveries, the areas inhabited by these peoples, with the discovery of material evidence related to them, the increased interest in the stories and times of the Prophet opens the door for new research on these peoples to be carried out on a scientific level. Examining the story about Noah's people from different aspects gives life to the exchange of ideas about whether the events that will lead to the Flood that the people lived in are similar to the events that are happening today, as well as new scientific researches in the direction of falsifying hypotheses about the area where Noah lived after the flood.
