Nuh was sent to his people as a messenger, to rid them of idolatory. Those who disbelieved in him were punished by a great flood, while Nuh was inspired to build an ark to escape the flood with the believers. According to a hadith, Nuh was born 1056 years after Adam. Noah (or Noe, Noach) was, according to the Hebrew Bible, the tenth and last of the antediluvian Patriarchs.
