Best Answer

If you are referring to Noah's Ark, it was a story when an old, aged man built an enormous boat to save all his animals from a great flood.

Answer 2

1) The holy ark is the special ark in each synagogue in which the Torah-scrolls are stored. It is a tall, heavy, fancy cabinet.
2) The holy ark was the Ark of the Covenant in which the two Stone Tablets with the Ten Commandments were held.
3) Noah's ark (Genesis ch.6), a type of huge boat, is recorded in the Torah and in the history of many ancient nations. The word for this ark in Hebrew is not the same as the above two.

Holy Ark is better remembered as Noah's Ark. Maulaana Nooh (as) built the ark on the command of Allaah. He was the Nabi of Allaah who brought Shari'at of Allaah to the people. When the people disregarded him and the commands of Allaah, Allaah ordered to build an ark and told him to take along with him all the pairs of animals, birds.

The son of Nooh (as) was also among the unbelievers who perished in the flood which accompanied after that.
