The Quran states that Noah's wife was not a believer with him so she did not join him; neither did one of Noah's sons (Yam), who was secretly a disbeliever but had pretended faith in front of Noah.
لم تكن زوجة نوح مؤمنة به فلم تصعد، وكان أحد أبنائه يخفي عصيانه ويبدي الإيمان أمام نوح، فلم يصعد هو الآخر .
