And ˹We subjected˺ some jinn¹ that dived for him,² and performed other duties. It is We Who kept them in check.

And ˹remember˺ when Job cried out to his Lord, “I have been touched with adversity,¹ and You are the Most Merciful of the merciful.”

So We answered his prayer and removed his adversity, and gave him back his family, twice as many, as a mercy from Us and a lesson for the ˹devoted˺ worshippers.

And ˹remember˺ Ishmael, Enoch, and Ⱬul-Kifl.¹ They were all steadfast.

We admitted them into Our mercy, for they were truly of the righteous.

And ˹remember˺ when the Man of the Whale stormed off ˹from his city˺ in a rage, thinking We would not restrain him.¹ Then in the ˹veils of˺ darkness² he cried out, “There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except You. Glory be to You! I have certainly done wrong.”

So We answered his prayer and rescued him from anguish. And so do We save the ˹true˺ believers.

And ˹remember˺ when Zachariah cried out to his Lord, “My Lord! Do not leave me childless, though You are the Best of Successors.”¹

So We answered his prayer, granted him John, and made his wife fertile. Indeed, they used to race in doing good, and call upon Us with hope and fear, totally humbling themselves before Us.
