And Jonah was indeed one of the messengers. (139) ˹Remember˺ when he fled to the overloaded ship. (140) Then ˹to save it from sinking,˺ he drew straws ˹with other passengers˺. He lost ˹and was thrown overboard˺. (141) Then the whale engulfed him while he was blameworthy. (142) Had he not ˹constantly˺ glorified ˹Allah˺, (143) he would have certainly remained in its belly until the Day of Resurrection. (144) But We cast him onto the open ˹shore˺, ˹totally˺ worn out, (145) and caused a squash plant to grow over him. (146) We ˹later˺ sent him ˹back˺ to ˹his city of˺ at least one hundred thousand people, (147) who then believed ˹in him˺, so We allowed them enjoyment for a while. (148)
