Allah Jalla celaluhu, the Lord of the worlds, sent Gabriel Aleyhisselam to Yunus Aleyhisselam and warned his people, that if they do not abandon idolatry within 40 days, a great punishment will come to them.

Upon this, Hazrat Yunus Aleyhisselam, O my people, Allah, the Lord of the worlds, warns you. If you do not stop worshiping these idols in 40 days, He will send you a great punishment. Follow the orders and prohibitions of Allah azza wa jalla and do not let this torment surround you. If you repent and believe in him, you will be among the survivors.”

His people did not listen to him again. They said, ‘Tell your Lord to punish us now. It’s been 37 days. Prophet Yunus thought that his people would not give up this bad habit, and he leave he did.

The effects and signs of the punishment sent by our Lord began to be seen. The oppressors of his people lost their power. They began to weaken and their faces turned pale. Thereupon, they said that what Yunus Aleyhisselam said was true, they regretted it and started to repent. Almighty Allah accepted the sincere repentance of Yunus Aleyhisselam’s people.
