DUA OF HAZRAT YUNUS
When Hazrat Yunus (A.S) was swallowed by a whale, he lost consciousness.
Upon regaining consciousness, he found himself surrounded by complete darkness. Soon, he realized that he was inside the belly of a great fish, which filled him with unease. In that moment, he turned to Allah in prayer.
Allah accepted his sincere prayers and rescued him from the belly of the fish alive.
