Transliteration
Wa laqad arsalnaa Noohanw wa Ibraaheema wa ja'alnaa fee zurriyyatihiman nubuwwata wal Kitaaba faminhum muhtad; wa kaseerum minhum faasiqoon
Translation
And We have already sent Noah and Abraham and placed in their descendants prophethood and scripture; and among them is he who is guided, but many of them are defiantly disobedient.
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
And verily I sent Noah and Abraham peace be upon him as messengers, and placed messengership in their offspring; I did not send any Prophet except from their progeny, giving them the revealed books; I only revealed books to a messenger from their progeny. So from their progenies are those who were rightly guided to the straight path and are successful, but the majority of them left the obedience of Allah.
