وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

So also was Jonah among those sent (by Us).


إِذۡ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ

When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden,


فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُدۡحَضِينَ

He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned:


فَٱلۡتَقَمَهُ ٱلۡحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٞ

Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame.


فَلَوۡلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحِينَ

Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah,


لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطۡنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ

He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection.


۞فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٞ

But We cast him forth on the naked shore in a state of sickness,


وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةٗ مِّن يَقۡطِينٖ

And We caused to grow, over him, a spreading plant of the gourd kind.


وَأَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِاْئَةِ أَلۡفٍ أَوۡ يَزِيدُونَ

And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred thousand (men) or more.
