Examples from the Qur'an
Then the fish swallowed him, while he was blameworthy.
But when they reached the junction between them, they forgot their fish, and it took its course into the sea, slipping away.
Then be patient for the decision of your Lord, [O Muḥammad], and be not like the companion of the fish [i.e., Jonah] when he called out while he was distressed.
