4:163 إِنَّا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ كَمَا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى نُوحٍ وَالنَّبِيِّينَ مِن بَعْدِهِ
وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ
وَالأَسْبَاطِ وَعِيسَى وَأَيُّوبَ وَيُونُسَ وَهَارُونَ وَسُلَيْمَانَ
وَآتَيْنَا دَاوُودَ زَبُوراً
We have sent thee inspiration, as We sent it to Noah and the Messengers after him: we sent inspiration to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob and the Tribes, to Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and solomon, and to David We gave the Psalms.
6:86 وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَالْيَسَعَ وَيُونُسَ وَلُوطاً وَكُلاًّ فضَّلْنَا عَلَى
الْعَالَمِينَ
And Isma'il and Elisha, and Jonas, and Lot: and to all We gave favour above the nations:
6:87 وَمِنْ آبَائِهِمْ وَذُرِّيَّاتِهِمْ وَإِخْوَانِهِمْ وَاجْتَبَيْنَاهُمْ
وَهَدَيْنَاهُمْ إِلَى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ
(To them) and to their fathers, and progeny and brethren: We chose them, and we guided them to a straight way.
10:98 فَلَوْلاَ كَانَتْ قَرْيَةٌ آمَنَتْ فَنَفَعَهَا إِيمَانُهَا إِلاَّ قَوْمَ يُونُسَ لَمَّا
آمَنُواْ كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُمْ عَذَابَ الخِزْيِ فِي الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَتَّعْنَاهُمْ
إِلَى حِينٍ
Why was there not a single township (among those We warned), which believed,- so its faith should have profited it,- except the people of Jonah? When they believed, We removed from them the penalty of ignominy in the life of the present, and permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while.
21:87 وَذَا النُّونِ إِذ ذَّهَبَ مُغَاضِباً فَظَنَّ أَن لَّن نَّقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ
فَنَادَى فِي الظُّلُمَاتِ أَن لَّا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي
كُنتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ
And remember Zun-nun, when he departed in wrath: He imagined that We had no power over him! But he cried through the deptHs of darkness, "There is no god but thou: glory to thee: I was indeed wrong!"
21:88 فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُ وَنَجَّيْنَاهُ
مِنَ الْغَمِّ وَكَذَلِكَ نُنجِي الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
So We listened to him: and delivered him from distress: and thus do We deliver those who have faith.
37:139 وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ
الْمُرْسَلِينَ
So also was Jonah among those sent (by Us).
37:140 إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ
When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden,
37:141 فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ
مِنْ الْمُدْحَضِينَ
He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned:
37:142 فَالْتَقَمَهُ الْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame.
37:143 فَلَوْلَا أَنَّهُ
كَانَ مِنْ الْمُسَبِّحِينَ
Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah,
37:144 لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطْنِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection.
37:145 فَنَبَذْنَاهُ بِالْعَرَاء وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ
But We cast him forth on the naked shore in a state of sickness,
37:146 وَأَنبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً
مِّن يَقْطِينٍ
And We caused to grow, over him, a spreading plant of the gourd kind.
37:147 وَأَرْسَلْنَاهُ إِلَى مِئَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ
And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred thousand (men) or more.
37:148 فَآمَنُوا فَمَتَّعْنَاهُمْ إِلَى حِينٍ
And they believed; so We permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while.
68:48 فَاصْبِرْ
لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُن كَصَاحِبِ الْحُوتِ إِذْ نَادَى وَهُوَ مَكْظُومٌ
So wait with patience for the Command of thy Lord, and be not like the Companion of the Fish,- when he cried out in agony.
68:49 لَوْلَا
أَن تَدَارَكَهُ نِعْمَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِ لَنُبِذَ بِالْعَرَاء وَهُوَ مَذْمُومٌ
Had not Grace from his Lord reached him, he would indeed have been cast off on the naked shore, in disgrace.
68:50 فَاجْتَبَاهُ رَبُّهُ
فَجَعَلَهُ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ
Thus did his Lord choose him and make him of the Company of the Righteous.
