﴿ ذُرِّيَّةَ مَنْ حَمَلْنَا مَعَ نُوحٍ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ عَبْدًۭا شَكُورًۭا ﴾

“O you descendants of those whom We caused to be borne (in the ark] with Noah! Behold, he was a most grateful servant (of Ours]!"”

((They were) the seed of those whom We carried (in the ship) along with Noah) i.e. in the loins of those who were carried in the ship with Noah. (Lo! He) i.e. Noah (was a grateful slave) he was thankful whenever he ate, drank or put on his clothes; he always said: thanks to Allah.
