Sura 37: AS-SAAFFAT (THOSE WHO SET THE RANKS) - Juz' 23 - Translation Yusufali
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُدْحَضِينَ
﴿۱۴۱﴾
He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned: (141)
فَالْتَقَمَهُ الْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
﴿۱۴۲﴾
Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame. (142)
فَلَوْلَا أَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحِينَ
﴿۱۴۳﴾
Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah, (143)
لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطْنِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
﴿۱۴۴﴾
He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection. (144)
فَنَبَذْنَاهُ بِالْعَرَاءِ وَهُوَ سَقِيمٌ
﴿۱۴۵﴾
But We cast him forth on the naked shore in a state of sickness, (145)
وَأَنْبَتْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِنْ يَقْطِينٍ
﴿۱۴۶﴾
And We caused to grow, over him, a spreading plant of the gourd kind. (146)
وَأَرْسَلْنَاهُ إِلَى مِائَةِ أَلْفٍ أَوْ يَزِيدُونَ
﴿۱۴۷﴾
And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred thousand (men) or more. (147)
فَآمَنُوا فَمَتَّعْنَاهُمْ إِلَى حِينٍ
﴿۱۴۸﴾
And they believed; so We permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while. (148)
فَاسْتَفْتِهِمْ أَلِرَبِّكَ الْبَنَاتُ وَلَهُمُ الْبَنُونَ
﴿۱۴۹﴾
Now ask them their opinion: Is it that thy Lord has (only) daughters, and they have sons?- (149)
أَمْ خَلَقْنَا الْمَلَائِكَةَ إِنَاثًا وَهُمْ شَاهِدُونَ
﴿۱۵۰﴾
Or that We created the angels female, and they are witnesses (thereto)? (150)
