STORY OF THE PROPHET YUNUS
He was a noble prophet named Jonah son's. Prophet Muhammad said: "Do not compare me over Yunus bin Eyes."
They named Jonah, Dzun Nun, and Yunan. He was a noble prophet sent by Allah Almighty to his people. He counseled them and guide them to the path of truth and goodness; he reminded them of the magnitude of the Day of Judgment and scare them with hell and lure them to heaven; he commands them with kindness, and invited them to worship only Allah SWT.
The Prophet Jonah always counseled his people but no one has faith in them. Come one day to the Prophet Jonah where he felt the despair of his people. His heart was filled with rage at them, but they do not believe. Then he came out in anger and set to leave them. Allah tells it in his words:
"And (remember) Dzun Nun (Jonah), when he left in anger, and he thought that We would not narrow it down (troubling) then he cried in a very dark: 'That there is no God (worthy of worship) except You. Glory to thee, behold, I am among those who do wrong. '"(Surat al-Anbiya': 87)
No one knows the excitement in the Prophet Jonah than Allah. The Prophet Jonah looked shocked and angry at his people. In such circumstances, he left his people. He went to the waterfront and boarded a boat to move it to another place. Allah SWT has not issued his decision to leave his family or a desperate act of his kind. Jonah thought that God Almighty may not lower the punishment to him because he left his people. When the Prophet Jonah seemed to forget that a prophet instructed only to preach in the way of Allah SWT. But the success or not success is not to be preaching responsibilities. So, the task is only to preach in the way of Allah and submit fully successful or unsuccessful problem to God Almighty alone.
There is a boat docked in a small harbor. The sun appears to be sinking. The waves hit the beach and break rocks. The prophet Jonah saw the little fish is trying to fight the waves, but he did not know what to do. Suddenly there came a big wave that hit the fish and causing it to collide with a rock fish. Seeing this scene, Jonah sadness. Prophet Yunus said in her: "If the fish with large fish he probably would have survived. Later Jonah to recall the situation and how he left his people. Finally, his anger and sadness increased.
The prophet Jonah was shaking up the boat in a state of soul. He did not know that he ran out of provisions towards Allah Allah SWT other provisions; him not to bring food and a bag filled with congenital or supplies, and no one of his friends who accompanied him; him completely alone; he stepped feet above the surface of the boat.
The boat captain asked him: "What do you want?" Hearing the question, Jonah got up: "I want to travel with your boats. Did we sailed in a long time?" The Prophet Jonah's angry voice revealed, fear, and anxiety. Captain said as he lifted his head: "We will sail though the water seemed to be tide." Prophet Yunus said patiently and tried to hide his anxiety: "Do you not precede lest my lord, O pairs that happen?" The captain said: "Our seas are usually affected by tide, it will soon subside when a traveler saw the precious." Jonah said: "I will go with you, and how much the fare?" The captain replied: "We did not receive a fee in addition to gold." Jonah said: "It does not matter."
Captain noticed the Prophet Jonah. He is an experienced person in which he often paced from one port to another port. Often he visited one place to another makes a man who is able to capture human feelings. Master's feel and know that the prophet Jonah running from something. Captain's imagine that Jonah made a mistake but he did not dare to reveal the culprit fault unless the perpetrator of a bankrupt. He asked the prophet Jonah to pay three times the normal vang paid traveler. Prophet Yunus when it felt cramped in his chest and filled with anger loud and strong desire to leave the country so he gives what is asked by the captain.
Captain noticed the gold pieces in his hand and he bit sebagaiannya with his teeth. Perhaps he will find the fake gold pieces, but he did not find it. The prophet Jonah was just standing watching all of that while his chest seemed to oscillate: sometimes up and sometimes down like a swing. The Prophet Jonah said: "My lord set me my room. I look tired and want to rest a bit." The captain said: "Indeed it looks on her face. Was your room," he said, motioning with his hands. Jonah then lay down on his bed and tried to sleep, but his efforts were in vain. Is a small fish that shattered image clashed with stone cause he can not sleep in peace. Prophet Yunus felt that the roof would fall on her room. Finally, Jonah slept on her bed where her eyes circled the room roof but his views were anxious not find refuge. Residence in the room and the roof and the sides seemed everything would collapse. Prophet Jonah began to complain, saying: "Likewise my heart hanging in my soul."
Thus, there is a struggle of great suffering in the Prophet Jonah as he lay on his bed. Suffering harsh enough against him so he got up from his bed again for no reason that can be understood. And it was time pairs. The boat threw the strings. Then the boat was running all day and he broke the calm water, and the wind was blowing him in a very gentle and kind. Then darkness enveloped the boat and the sea suddenly changed. A wind strong enough so terrible that almost destroyed the boat and the waves were pretty powerful bergolaklah like people who have lost their minds. The waves were rising like a mountain and down like a valley.
Begin surface waves swept the boat so the crew began to get wet. And in the back of the boat there is a large whale that started lurking. He opened his mouth. Then there is an order to the whales to move towards the sea surface. The whale obeyed the command of Allah SWT and he rushed to the sea surface. He began to follow the boat as it receives orders. The wind kept blowing harder then head boat signaled with his hand that a boat load is reduced. And the wind blew hard. Meanwhile, Jonah felt fear. In his sleep he saw everything shaking in her room. He tried to stand up, but could not afford. Then the head of the boat shouted and said: "It was a strong wind blowing unusual. Together we are one man's wrong so therefore the wind is blowing with the winds. We are going to draw on all of the crew. Whoever we'll throw his name out into the ocean."
The Prophet Jonah knew that this was a tradition of traditions common to the boat crew if they encounter winds. But then he was forced to follow him. Episode suffering Jonah starts. He was a noble prophet but must be subject to the laws of style idols who believe that the oceans have a god. With that belief, they believe that unleash strong winds caused by the anger of the gods. Therefore, efforts must be made to appease and satisfy the gods they believe it. The prophet Jonah was forced to attend the draw. Put his name along with the name of the other passengers, and he did the lottery. Being out it its name. Then a second lottery was held, and this time it came out the name of the prophet Jonah. Finally, a third lottery was held. Again, the exit name Jonah. Later determined that the prophet Jonah had thrown into the sea. When passengers noticed that the crew of the prophet Jonah. The Prophet Jonah knew that he made a mistake when he left his people in anger. Prophet Yunus thinks that Allah will not decrease her sentence. But he is considered one for leaving his family without his permission. Allah SWT give him lessons.
The Prophet Jonah stood beside the boat and see the ocean filled with waves were terrible. The world was dark and there was no moonlight. The stars are hiding in the shadows. Water color was dark and cold to the bone. As a result, the water covered everything. Then the boat captain shouted: "Jump O mysterious traveler." Wind faster and faster. The prophet Jonah tried to keep his balance, and he showed his courage when I want to jump into the ocean. The Prophet Jonah and plunged in the ocean surface like a floating lacquer. The whale was in front of him. The fish began to smile because God Almighty has sent her evening meal. Then the fish was caught prophet Jonah in the midst of the waves. Then the fish back into the ocean. The fish was returned in the condition is satisfied after meeting her stomach.
The prophet Jonah was very surprised to find himself in the belly of the fish. The fish was brought to the bottom of the oceans and seas brought out into the night. Three darkness: darkness in the belly of the fish, the dark ocean floor, and the darkness of night. Prophet Yunus felt that he was dead. He tried to move the five senses and limbs still moving. If so, he is alive. He was imprisoned in three darkness.
Jonah began to cry and glorify God. He began to travel towards God when he imprisoned the three dark. His heart began to move to glorify God, and his tongue began to follow him. He said: "There is no god but You, O God. Messenger of the Most Holy. Indeed, I am among those who persecute yourself." (Surah Hud: 87)
While imprisoned in the belly of the fish, he still glorify Allah. The fish itself seemed exhausted when I had to swim far enough. Then the fish is asleep on the ocean floor. Meanwhile, Jonah is still glorify Allah. He endlessly glorify and not stop crying. He was not eating, not drinking, and did not move. He was fasting and breaking beads. Other fish and plants and all the creatures that live in the ocean heard Jonah beads. Rosary comes from the belly of this whale. Then all the creatures gathered around the whale and they had come to glorify Allah. Each of them glorify their own way and language.
Whale that ate Jonah woke up and heard the sounds of prayer beads are so boisterous and roaring. He testified at the bottom of the ocean there is a huge celebration attended by fish and other animals, and even rocks and sand all glorify Allah and he did not miss participating with them glorify Allah. And he began to realize that he was swallowing a prophet. The whale was feeling scared but he said to himself why am I afraid? Is not God who told me to eat it. The Prophet Jonah remained in the belly of the fish for some time that we do not know the limits. During that time he also always filled him with a hymn to God and always showed remorse and cried: "There is no god but You, O God the Most Holy. Indeed, I am among those who persecute yourself." Allah SWT sincere repentance of Jonah saw. Allah heard the beads in the belly of the fish. Then Allah commanded the fish was lowered to issue Jonah into the sea and throw it on an island that is determined by Allah SWT.
The fish was also obey the divine command. Body of Jonah in the belly of the fish felt the heat. He looked ill, and the sun was shining and the heat of his body touching it. She screamed because of pain not strong but he was able to hold back and re-hymn. Then Allah SWT Yaqthin grow trees, ie trees whose leaves wide to protect from the sun. And Allah heal and forgive. Allah told him that if not for the rosary he had said he would have remained in the belly of the whale until the Day of Judgement.
Allah says:
"Surely Jonah beriar truly one of the apostles. (Remember) when he ran to the laden ship, then he joined toss and he was among those who lost the lottery. Then he was swallowed by a big ihan in deplorable condition. Then that if only it does not include those who remember Allah much, surely he would have stayed in the belly until the Day of Resurrection. then We cast him into a barren area, while he was ill., and we nurtured for him a tree of this type of pumpkin. And We sent him to a hundred people or more. And they believed, so We gave them to the pleasures of life for a while. " (As-Saffat: 139-148)
"And (remember) Dzunnun (Jonah), when he left in anger, and they think that we are not going to narrow it down (difficult for him), then he cried in a very dark: 'That there is no God (worthy of worship) except You. Glory to thee, verily I am the wrong-doers. ' So we've heard his prayer and saved him from grief. And so We saved those who believe. " (Surat al-Anbiya ': 87-88)
We now want to discuss the issues referred to by scholars as the sins of the prophet Jonah. Is Jonah commit a sin in the true sense, and whether the prophet is innocent? The answer is: The prophets are those infallibility infallible but this does not mean that they do not do something which is Allah deserves censure (punishment). So the problem is rather relative. According to people close to Allah SWT: goodness good people considered keburukaan for al-Muqarrabin (people who are close to Allah SWT). This is true. Now, let us examine the case of the prophet Jonah. He left his village which many filled by people opposed vang. If this is done by ordinary people or by people who are righteous than the Prophet Jonah then it is a good and therefore he is rewarded. Because, he is trying to save the religion of the ungodly. But Jonah was a prophet sent by Allah Almighty to them. He should convey da'wah in the way of Allah and he is not concerned with results preaching. The task he simply convey religion. Discharge him from the village-in the eyes of the prophets are subject requiring come from Allah and His punishment to him.
Allah SWT gave a lesson to Jonah in his preaching on the street. Allah sent him to preach only. This limits his message and he does not need to be concerned with his people who do not follow it and therefore he does not have to be sad and angry. Prophet Lut remained in his family for many years although he did not have to preach one faith. Although that case, the Prophet Lut not leave them. He did not run away from his family and from his village. He was still preaching in the way of Allah so that Allah orders came through his angels who allowed him to go. That's when he left. Should he go before he will undoubtedly get a punishment as it is received by the Prophet Jonah. So, the Prophet Jonah out without permission. Then watch what happens to his people. They have been faithful after the prophet Jonah keluamya. Allah says:
"And why is not there a resident of a city of faith, then faith is beneficial to him than the people of Yunus When they (the people of Jonah's) faith, We removed from them the punishment of humiliation in this life, and we give pleasure to them until a certain time . " (Surah Yunus: 98)
Thus, Nabi Yunus faith. Had he stayed with them he would have to know, and his heart will be calm and his anger will be gone. He seems hasty and slapdash attitude certainly departs from the human desire to be faithful. Jonah attempt to leave them is as an expression of hatred against them for their ketidakimanan. Then Allah punish him and teach him that the task of a prophet just saying religion. A prophet is not burdened with the affairs of human faith; a prophet is not responsible for the denial of man, and a prophet can not provide guidance (guidance) to them.
He was a noble prophet named Jonah son's. Prophet Muhammad said: "Do not compare me over Yunus bin Eyes."
They named Jonah, Dzun Nun, and Yunan. He was a noble prophet sent by Allah Almighty to his people.

The Prophet Jonah always counseled his people but no one has faith in them. Come one day to the Prophet Jonah where he felt the despair of his people. His heart was filled with rage at them, but they do not believe. Then he came out in anger and set to leave them. Allah tells it in his words:
