Transliteration:( Wa yasna'ul fulka wa kullamaa marra 'alaihi mala'um min qawmihee sakhiroo minh; qaala in taskharoo minnaa fa innaa naskharu minkum kamaa taskharoon )
83. They were saying that up to now you had been a Prophet but now you are a carpenter, that too a foolish one who is building an Ark on dry land without any need for it. You should have rather built a cart for the road. It should be remembered that Hazrat Nooh (On whom be peace) is the inventor of ships.
84. From this we learn to express joy at the destruction of the infidels, to ridicule them on their infidelity are all acts of worship. The meaning of this verse is that in future we would laugh and be happy at your drowning in the world and burning in the Hereafter
