@ 1360 Jonah and the whale 37:140-148


37:139 Jonah, too, was one of the Messengers.
# وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ المُرْسَلِينَ 139
37:140 He ran away to the laden ship,
# إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى الفُلْكِ المَشْحُونِ 140
37:141 and cast lots, and he was among the losers (of the lots that were cast).
# فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ المُدْحَضِينَ 141
37:142 So the whale swallowed him, for he was blameworthy,
# فَالْتَقَمَهُ الحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ 142
37:143 and had he not been among those who exalt (Allah),
# فَلَوْلاَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ المُسَبِّحِينَ 143
37:144 he would have lingered in its belly till the Day they are resurrected.
# لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطْنِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ 144
37:145 But We cast him, upon the shore, and he was ill,
# فَنَبَذْنَاهُ بِالْعَرَاءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ 145
37:146 and We caused a pumpkin tree to grow over him.
# وَأَنْبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِّن يَقْطِينٍ 146
37:147 Then We sent him to a hundred thousand or more,
# وَأَرْسَلْنَاهُ إِلَى مِائَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ 147
37:148 and they believed, and We gave them enjoyment for awhile.
# فَآمَنُوا فَمَتَّعْنَاهُمْ إِلَى حِينٍ 148
