Surah 68:49
"If a blessing from his Lord had not reached him, he would indeed have been tossed on the desert (shore), condemned."
Jonah Cast on the Desert Shore
Opposing Verses
Surah 37:145 → "But We tossed him on the desert (shore) while he was (still) sick,"
Does the Quran state that Jonah was cast upon the desert shore? There is an apparent contradiction among different verses regarding this event. One verse states that Jonah was cast onto the desert shore while he was sick. Conversely, another verse states that had a blessing from his Lord not reached him, he would have been cast upon the desert shore.
