The Holy Quran 21:88 — Surah Al-Anbya

Arabic text

فَٱسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُۥ وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُ مِنَ ٱلْغَمِّ ۚ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نُـۨجِى ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

Translation

So We responded to his du'aa (heard his cry) and rescued him from distress (suffocation, by causing the fish to spit him out). Thus (as We rescued him) do We rescue the Mu'mineen (from difficulties).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The excellence of this prayer: that is, deliverance is not confined to Yunus ﵇; whichever believers call upon Us in the same way, We will rescue them from afflictions. Much is related in the hadiths about the excellence of this prayer, and in hardships and calamities the Ummah has always found it a tried and tested remedy.
