Drowned people

(11:37) "Construct the Ship under Our eyes and Our inspiration, and do not address to Me regarding those who are wicked. They will be drowned (Arab. مُغْرَقُونَ, mugh'raqūna)."

(23:27) So We inspired him: "Construct the Ship under Our eyes and Our inspiration. Then, when Our command comes and the geyser erupts, then you shall take on the Ship two from every pair, and your family; except for those of them upon whom the word has come. Do not address Me regarding those who have done wrong, for they will be drowned (Arab. مُغْرَقُونَ, mugh'raqūna)."
