=== 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>}}
