Description: An explanation of the Du'a of Yunus. The Du'a of Dhun-Nun (Yunus), which he invoked while inside the belly of the whale, was: “There is none worthy of worship except You. You are pure. Verily, I am among the oppressors.” (TMQ Al-Anbiya 21:87) The Prophet (SAW) said regarding the invocation of Yunus, "None who is experiencing difficulty employs it except that Allah will relieve him of his difficulty." Shaikh ul-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah was asked about the Du'a of Yunus, and he addresses it in this book. Some of the questions answered include: What is the meaning of this Du'a? Are there any unstated connections between belief in the heart and the meaning of this supplication? What is the relationship between belief in the heart and the meaning of this supplication that leads to the removal of difficulty?
