=== Was Jonah cast onto the shore? === | |||
Yes - Allah casts him onto the shore. | |||
{{Quote|{{Quran|37|139-145}}|“Indeed, Jonah was one of the messengers,” | |||
“When he ran away to a ship completely laden,” | |||
“And then drew lots and was of those who are rejected.” | |||
“And the fish swallowed him while he was blameworthy,” | |||
“Had he not been one of those who glorify (Allah)” | |||
“He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection.” | |||
<i>“So We cast him onto the shore, while he was sick.”</i>}} | |||
No - he wasn't cast onto the shore due to Allah’s favour reaching him. | |||
{{Quote|{{Quran|68|48-49}}|“So wait with patience for the Command of thy Lord, and be not like the Companion of the Fish, when he cried out in despair.” | |||
<i>“Had it not been that favour from his Lord had reached him, he would indeed have been cast off onto the shore in disgrace.”</i>}} | |||
