Sample Question 10
Prophets (AS)
Medium • Islamic Studies
How long Hazrat Younas (AS) remained in the abdomen of the fish?
A
20 days
B
40 days
C
45 days
D
50 days
✓ Correct Answer: B - 40 days
📖 Step-by-Step Solution & Conceptual Rationale:
40 days is the most widely cited and accepted duration that Hazrat Younas (AS) (Jonah) spent inside the belly of the whale or large fish.
According to reports from classical scholars like Ibn Abbas and historical accounts compiled by commentators such as Imam Ibn Kathir, Hazrat Younas (AS) survived in the abdomen of the creature for 40 days and nights. During this trial, he was kept entirely safe from the creature's digestive acids by Allah's divine protection. He spent this period reciting the famous prayer of repentance (Ayat-e-Karima): "La ilaha illa Anta, Subhanaka, inni kuntu minaz-zalimin" (There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers), after which the whale safely ejected him onto a barren shore.
