About the video
A teacher and four members take the fourteen ayat as six short stories, then turn to their own questions and two for your circle. The members are fictional and their voices are AI. An AI voice also reads each ayah in Arabic before its translation. For the recitation by Mishary Rashid Alafasy, use the Verses page.
It is one way to run a halaqa, not the only way. The Facilitator guide has a plan for your own circle.

The Story of Nuh - Part 3: The Da'wah of the Prophet Nūḥ and Its Reception | Episode 35
49:04 · Yasir Qadhi (official channel)
Connection to the verses · editorial reflection: From the transcript, part of a long series on the stories of the prophets. At 3:48 he reads ayah 59 in English and says this one ayah holds three foundations of the faith: one God, a God who sends prophets, and a final Day. The rest of the talk follows Nuh’s call through other surahs too.
