فَلَوۡلَآ أَنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُسَبِّحِينَ

Had he not ˹constantly˺ glorified ˹Allah˺,


لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطۡنِهِۦٓ إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ يُبۡعَثُونَ

he would have certainly remained in its belly until the Day of Resurrection.


۞فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٞ

But We cast him onto the open ˹shore˺, ˹totally˺ worn out,


وَأَنۢبَتۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ شَجَرَةٗ مِّن يَقۡطِينٖ

and caused a squash plant to grow over him.


وَأَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ مِاْئَةِ أَلۡفٍ أَوۡ يَزِيدُونَ

We ˹later˺ sent him ˹back˺ to ˹his city of˺ one hundred thousand people or more,


فَـَٔامَنُواْ فَمَتَّعۡنَٰهُمۡ إِلَىٰ حِينٖ

who then believed ˹in him˺, so We allowed them enjoyment for a while.


فَٱسۡتَفۡتِهِمۡ أَلِرَبِّكَ ٱلۡبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ ٱلۡبَنُونَ

Ask them ˹O Prophet˺ if your Lord has daughters, while the pagans ˹prefer to˺ have sons.


أَمۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ إِنَٰثٗا وَهُمۡ شَٰهِدُونَ

Or ˹ask them˺ if We created the angels as females right before their eyes.
