37. Safat · verses 137–142

وَإِنَّكُمۡ لَتَمُرُّونَ عَلَيۡهِم مُّصۡبِحِينَ

Wainnakum latamurroona AAalayhim musbiheena

Verily, ye pass by their (sites), by day-

وَبِٱلَّيۡلِۚ أَفَلَا تَعۡقِلُونَ

Wabiallayli afala taAAqiloona

And by night: will ye not understand?

وَإِنَّ يُونُسَ لَمِنَ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

Wainna yoonusa lamina almursaleena

So also was Jonah among those sent (by Us).

إِذۡ أَبَقَ إِلَى ٱلۡفُلۡكِ ٱلۡمَشۡحُونِ

Ith abaqa ila alfulki almashhooni

When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden,

فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُدۡحَضِينَ

Fasahama fakana mina almudhadeena

He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned:

فَٱلۡتَقَمَهُ ٱلۡحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٞ

Failtaqamahu alhootu wahuwa muleemun

Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame.
