26. 1. This supplication of curse is from the time when Prophet Nuh (Noah) (AS) became completely hopeless about their accepting faith, and Allah also informed him that now none of them will believe (وَاُوْحِيَ اِلٰي نُوْحٍ اَنَّهٗ لَنْ يُّؤْمِنَ مِنْ قَوْمِكَ اِلَّا مَنْ قَدْ اٰمَنَ فَلَا تَبْتَىِٕسْ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَفْعَلُوْنَ 36؀ښ) 11. Hud:36). The meaning is: do not leave anyone remaining.
