10. The Prophet Jonah

10 – 51 – 109 – 11 

Yunus------The Prophet Jonah 


1 Al- Qur'an is the book of wisdom. 

Allah is the One Who created this universe.
He is the One Who originates the creation and repeats it. 

There are signs of His manifestation in the creation of heaven,
earth, sun, moon, day and night. 


2 Behavior of the wrongdoers towards Allah and His revelations. 
Deities other than Allah can neither harm nor benefit you.

Mankind was one nation until they invented different
creeds. 


3 People call upon Allah when suffering but plot against Him
when comfortable. 
Example of this worldly life. 

Allah invites you to the Home of Peace.
Deities whom people worship are not even aware of
their worship.


4 Truth about Allah vs. other gods invented by the Mushrikeen. 
This Qur'an is the revelation from Allah. 

Those who disbelieve in this Qur'an shall be the losers in the
Hereafter. 

Every nation was sent a Rasool for their guidance. 


6 There shall be no way out for the unbelievers on the Day of
Judgment. 

The Qur'an is a mercy, blessing, and cure for the problems of
mankind. 

7 Whatever you do, Allah is a witness to it. 

The Mushrikeen follow nothing but conjecture, preach nothing
but falsehood. 


8 Story of the Prophet Nûh and his people. 

Rasools were sent to the descendants of the Prophet Nûh - similarly
The Prophets Musa and Haroon were sent to Pharaoh. 


9 Story of Musa and Fir‘aun (Pharaoh).

Children of Israel were delivered from the bondage of
Fir‘aun. 


10 Children of Israel were provided with good dwellings and food. 

Belief after seeing the scourge did not benefit any nation
except the nation of Yûnus. 

Forcing someone to convert to Islam is prohibited. 


11 No one other than Allah can harm or benefit you. 

Declare that guidance has come - now to follow or not to
follow is now your choice.
