[Ambiya 21:82] And among the devils, were those who dived (in water) for him and did works other than this; and We had kept them restrained. [Ambiya 21:83] And remember Ayyub (Job), when he called his Lord that, "Hardship has afflicted me, and You are the Most Merciful of all those who have mercy." [Ambiya 21:84] We therefore heard his prayer and removed the adversity that had afflicted him, and We gave him his family and in addition bestowed along with them a similar number, by mercy from Ourselves - and an advice for the people who worship. [Ambiya 21:85] And remember Ismail, and Idrees, and Zul-Kifl; they were all patiently enduring. [Ambiya 21:86] And We admitted them into Our mercy; indeed they are among those who deserve Our proximity. [Ambiya 21:87] And remember Zun-Noon, * when he left in anger, assuming that We would not restrict him - he therefore called out in the realms of darkness, saying, "There is no God except You, Purity is to You; I have indeed committed a lapse." (* Prophet Yunus - peace and blessings upon him) [Ambiya 21:88] We therefore heard his prayer and rescued him from grief; and similarly We shall rescue the Muslims. [Ambiya 21:89] And remember Zakaria, when he prayed to his Lord, "O my Lord - do not leave me alone, and You are the Best Inheritor. [Ambiya 21:90] We therefore heard his prayer;
and bestowed
him Yahya, and cured his wife for him; indeed they used to hasten to
perform
good deeds, and pray to Us with hope and fear; and used to weep before
Us. |
