 وَيٰقَوْمِ مَن يَنصُرُنِي مِنَ ٱللَّهِ إِن طَرَدتُّهُمْ أَفَلاَ تَذَكَّرُونَ

 

wayāqawmi man yanṣurunī mina l-lahi in ṭaradttuhum afalā tadhakkarūna

The Aya says:

And my people who is going to support me in front of Allah, if I expelled them?! Why don’t you remember/ remind youselves?!

 

My personal note:

He is reminding them that expelling his followers is a grave thing to do and he is also reminding them that no one can support him if he is to be punished for such bad act. 

 

Translation of the transliterated words:

wayāqawmi: And my people

Note: WA is for continuation of the subject in this context.  YAQAWMI YA is used for calling.  QAWMI is derived from the root Qaf-Y-M and it means standing or standing upright.

Note: the root is N-Sad-R and it means aid or support or backing whether in need or not.

Note: the root is TH-K-R and it means mention and remember, at the same time. The concrete word is something running on the tongue as if speaking it. Another concrete word is male or the male organ. The relationship between the two is not very clear and they can be different words that share the sound but have different root. It could be that the male is considered the active organ and that memory is an active process, but that is only a theory. TATHAKKAROON is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of reminding and mentioning to oneself is happening or will be happening by the subject (Second person plural).

What Noah is saying to his people.  I am on a clear path and am blessed but you cannot see it.  Because of that I am not going to force my belief on you and it will be a matter between you and God.  This is also the issue in Islamic law that we are not supposed to force conversion to Islam.
