Jonah

إِنَّآ أَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ كَمَآ أَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ نُوحٖ وَٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦۚ وَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَ وَٱلۡأَسۡبَاطِ وَعِيسَىٰ وَأَيُّوبَ وَيُونُسَ وَهَٰرُونَ وَسُلَيۡمَٰنَۚ وَءَاتَيۡنَا دَاوُۥدَ زَبُورٗا ١٦٣

اِنَّا͏ٓ اَوْحَيْنَا͏ٓ اِلَيْكَ كَمَا͏ٓ اَوْحَيْنَا͏ٓ اِلٰي نُوْحٍ وَّالنَّبِيّٖنَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهٖۚ وَاَوْحَيْنَا͏ٓ اِلٰٓي اِبْرٰهِيْمَ وَاِسْمٰعِيْلَ وَاِسْحٰقَ وَيَعْقُوْبَ وَالْاَسْبَاطِ وَعِيْسٰي وَاَيُّوْبَ وَيُوْنُسَ وَهٰرُوْنَ وَسُلَيْمٰنَۚ وَاٰتَيْنَا دَاوٗدَ زَبُوْرًا ۝١٦٣ۚ

Indeed, We have revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], as We revealed to Noah and the prophets after him. And We revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, the Descendants, Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon; and to David We gave the book [of Psalms].

وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَٱلۡيَسَعَ وَيُونُسَ وَلُوطٗاۚ وَكُلّٗا فَضَّلۡنَا عَلَى ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٨٦

وَاِسْمٰعِيْلَ وَالْيَسَعَ وَيُوْنُسَ وَلُوْطًاؕ وَكُلًّا فَضَّلْنَا عَلَي الْعٰلَمِيْنَ ۝٨٦ۙ

And Ishmael and Elisha and Jonah and Lot - and all [of them] We preferred over the worlds.

فَلَوۡلَا كَانَتۡ قَرۡيَةٌ ءَامَنَتۡ فَنَفَعَهَآ إِيمَٰنُهَآ إِلَّا قَوۡمَ يُونُسَ لَمَّآ ءَامَنُواْ كَشَفۡنَا عَنۡهُمۡ عَذَابَ ٱلۡخِزۡيِ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَمَتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ إِلَىٰ حِينٖ ٩٨

فَلَوْلَا كَانَتْ قَرْيَةٌ اٰمَنَتْ فَنَفَعَهَا͏ٓ اِيْمَانُهَا͏ٓ اِلَّا قَوْمَ يُوْنُسَؕ لَمَّا͏ٓ اٰمَنُوْا كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُمْ عَذَابَ الْخِزْيِ فِي الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَتَّعْنٰهُمْ اِلٰي حِيْنٍ ۝٩٨

Then has there not been a [single] city that believed so its faith benefited it except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the punishment of disgrace in worldly life and gave them enjoyment [i.e., provision] for a time.

وَذَا ٱلنُّونِ إِذ ذَّهَبَ مُغَٰضِبٗا فَظَنَّ أَن لَّن نَّقۡدِرَ عَلَيۡهِ فَنَادَىٰ فِي ٱلظُّلُمَٰتِ أَن لَّآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّآ أَنتَ سُبۡحَٰنَكَ إِنِّي كُنتُ مِنَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ ٨٧

وَذَا النُّوْنِ اِذْ ذَّهَبَ مُغَاضِبًا فَظَنَّ اَنْ لَّنْ نَّقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ فَنَادٰي فِي الظُّلُمٰتِ اَنْ لَّا͏ٓ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا͏ٓ اَنْتَ سُبْحٰنَكَࣗۖ اِنِّيْ كُنْتُ مِنَ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ ۝٨٧ۚۖ

And [mention] the man of the fish [i.e., Jonah], when he went off in anger and thought that We would not decree [anything] upon him. And he called out within the darknesses, "There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers."

فَٱسۡتَجَبۡنَا لَهُۥ وَنَجَّيۡنَٰهُ مِنَ ٱلۡغَمِّۚ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نُـۨجِي ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ ٨٨

فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهٗۙ وَنَجَّيْنٰهُ مِنَ الْغَمِّؕ وَكَذٰلِكَ نُـْۨجِي الْمُو͏ٔ͏ْمِنِيْنَ ۝٨٨

So We responded to him and saved him from the distress. And thus do We save the believers.

وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ ١٣٩

وَاِنَّ يُوْنُسَ لَمِنَ الْمُرْسَلِيْنَ ۝١٣٩ؕ

And indeed, Jonah was among the messengers.

إِذۡ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ ١٤٠

اِذْ اَبَقَ اِلَي الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُوْنِ ۝١٤٠ۙ

[Mention] when he ran away to the laden ship.

فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُدۡحَضِينَ ١٤١

فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُدْحَضِيْنَ ۝١٤١ۚ

And he drew lots and was among the losers.

فَٱلۡتَقَمَهُ ٱلۡحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٞ ١٤٢

فَالْتَقَمَهُ الْحُوْتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيْمٌ ۝١٤٢

Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy.

فَلَوۡلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحِينَ ١٤٣

فَلَوْلَا͏ٓ اَنَّهٗ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحِيْنَ ۝١٤٣ۙ

And had he not been of those who exalt Allāh,

لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطۡنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ ١٤٤

لَلَبِثَ فِيْ بَطْنِهٖٓ اِلٰي يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُوْنَ ۝١٤٤ۚ

He would have remained inside its belly until the Day they are resurrected.

فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٞ ١٤٥

فَنَبَذْنٰهُ بِالْعَرَا࢜ءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيْمٌ ۝١٤٥ۚ

But We threw him onto the open shore while he was ill.

وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةٗ مِّن يَقۡطِينٖ ١٤٦

وَاَنۢ͏ْبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّنْ يَّقْطِيْنٍ ۝١٤٦ۚ

And We caused to grow over him a gourd vine.

وَأَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِاْئَةِ أَلۡفٍ أَوۡ يَزِيدُونَ ١٤٧

وَاَرْسَلْنٰهُ اِلٰي مِاي͏ٔ͏َةِ اَلْفٍ اَوْ يَزِيْدُوْنَ ۝١٤٧ۚ

And We sent him to [his people of] a hundred thousand or more.

فَـَٔامَنُواْ فَمَتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ إِلَىٰ حِينٖ ١٤٨

فَاٰمَنُوْا فَمَتَّعْنٰهُمْ اِلٰي حِيْنٍ ۝١٤٨ؕ

And they believed, so We gave them enjoyment [of life] for a time.

فَٱصۡبِرۡ لِحُكۡمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُن كَصَاحِبِ ٱلۡحُوتِ إِذۡ نَادَىٰ وَهُوَ مَكۡظُومٞ ٤٨

فَاصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُنْ كَصَاحِبِ الْحُوْتِۘ اِذْ نَادٰي وَهُوَ مَكْظُوْمٌ ۝٤٨ؕ

Then be patient for the decision of your Lord, [O Muḥammad], and be not like the companion of the fish [i.e., Jonah] when he called out while he was distressed.

لَّوۡلَآ أَن تَدَٰرَكَهُۥ نِعۡمَةٞ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ لَنُبِذَ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ مَذۡمُومٞ ٤٩

لَوْلَا͏ٓ اَنْ تَدٰرَكَهٗ نِعْمَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖ لَنُبِذَ بِالْعَرَا࢜ءِ وَهُوَ مَذْمُوْمٌ ۝٤٩

If not that a favor [i.e., mercy] from his Lord overtook him, he would have been thrown onto the naked shore while he was censured.

فَٱجۡتَبَٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ فَجَعَلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ ٥٠

فَاجْتَبٰىهُ رَبُّهٗ فَجَعَلَهٗ مِنَ الصّٰلِحِيْنَ ۝٥٠

And his Lord chose him and made him of the righteous.
