إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ ١٤٠
When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden,
إِذْ أَبَقَ إِلَى الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ ١٤٠
When he ran away (like a slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden,
فَسَاهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُدْحَضِينَ ١٤١
He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned:
فَالْتَقَمَهُ الْحُوتُ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ ١٤٢
Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame.
فَلَوْلَا أَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحِينَ ١٤٣
Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah,
لَلَبِثَ فِي بَطْنِهِ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ ١٤٤
He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection.
