سورة الـقـلـم
48

فَٱصۡبِرۡ لِحُكۡمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تَكُن كَصَاحِبِ ٱلۡحُوتِ إِذۡ نَادَىٰ وَهُوَ مَكۡظُومٞ

Faisbir lihukmi rabbika wala takun kasahibi alhooti ith nada wahuwa makthoomun

So wait with patience for the Command of thy Lord, and be not like the Companion of the Fish,- when he cried out in agony.

49

لَّوۡلَآ أَن تَدَٰرَكَهُۥ نِعۡمَةٞ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ لَنُبِذَ بِٱلۡعَرَآءِ وَهُوَ مَذۡمُومٞ

Lawla an tadarakahu niAAmatun min rabbihi lanubitha bialAAarai wahuwa mathmoomun

Had not Grace from his Lord reached him, he would indeed have been cast off on the naked shore, in disgrace.
