In the name of ALLAH, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful Yoonus (peace be upon him) in The Quran __________________________________________________________

Verily, We have inspired you (O Muhammad SAW) as We inspired Nooh (Noah) and the Prophets after him; We (also) inspired Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Yaqoob (Jacob), and AlAsbat (the twelve sons of Yaqoob (Jacob)), Iesa (Jesus), Ayub (Job), Yoonus (Jonah), Haroon (Aaron), and Sulaiman (Solomon), and to Dawood (David) We gave the Zaboor (Psalms). [004:163] ————————————————————————————————— And Ismail (Ishmael) and Al-Yasa (Elisha), and Yoonus (Jonah) and Lout (Lot), and each one of them We preferred above the Alameen (mankind and jinns). [006:086] And also some of their fathers and their progeny and their brethren, We chose them, and We guided them to a Straight Path. [006:087] ————————————————————————————————— Was there any town that believed (after seeing the punishment) and its Faith saved it (from the punishment)? - except the people of Yoonus (Jonah); when they believed, We removed from them the torment of disgrace in the life of the world, and permitted them to enjoy for a while. [010:098] ————————————————————————————————— And (remember) Dhan-Noon (Jonah), when he went off in anger, and imagined that We shall not punish him! But he cried through the darkness (saying): La ilaha illa Anta (none has the right to be worshipped but You (O Allah)), Glorified are You. Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers.” [021:087] So We answered his call, and delivered him from the distress. And thus We do deliver the believers. [021:088] ————————————————————————————————— And, verily, Yoonus (Jonah) was one of the Messengers. [037:139] When he ran to the laden ship, [037:140] He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was among the losers, [037:141] Then a (big) fish swallowed him and he had done an act worthy of blame. [037:142] Had he not been of them who glorify Allah, [037:143] He would have indeed remained inside its belly (the fish) till the Day of Resurrection. [037:144] But We cast him forth on the naked shore while he was sick, [037:145] And We caused a plant of gourd to grow over him. [037:146] I bear witness that there is no God except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is His servant and messenger

And We sent him to a hundred thousand (people) or even more. [037:147] And they believed; so We gave them enjoyment for a while. [037:148]

I bear witness that there is no God except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is His servant and messenger
