Yunus (Arabic: يُونُس‎, Yūnus, "Jonah"), is the 10th chapter (Surah) of the Quran with 109 Ayahs (verses). Yunus is named after the prophet Yunus (Jonah). According to tafsir chronology (asbāb al-nuzūl), it is believed to have been "revealed" before the migration of the Islamic prophet Muhammed (PBUH) and his followers from Mecca (Makkah) to Medina / Madinah (Hijra), as such, it is known as a Meccan / Makki surah. The surah contains 109 verses (ayah) and is the first of six surahs which open with the tri-letters alif, lam and ra'.

Principal Subjects:
The first ayat / ayah contains greeting towards the Right Way is reached out to the individuals who were thinking about it a strange thing that Allah's message was being presented on by a person (Muhammad (S.A.W)). They were accusing Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) of witchcraft, though there is neither anything strange in it nor makes them anything to do with magic or soothsaying. Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) is just educated humanity these two realities:

Allah, Who has made the universe, is, indeed, your Rabb, and He Alone is qualified for be worshipped.
That after the life right now, will be another life in the following scene, where you will need to render full record of this current world's life. You will be compensated or rebuffed by whether you adopt the righteous attitude required by Allah in the wake of recognizing Him as your Rabb, or act against His commandments.
Both of these realities will be real factors in themselves, regardless of whether you recognize them in that capacity or not. On the off chance that you acknowledge these, you will have an extremely honored end; else you will meet the shrewd outcomes of your offenses. The significant issues, divine laws, and instructions in the surah can be listed as follows:-

Allah is the only Creator of this universe.
Deities worshiped by mushrikin, other than Allah, have no capacity to either profit or mischief anybody.
Deities other than Allah are not in any case mindful that they are being worshiped.
Allah sent a Rasool for guidance to each nation.
Al-Qur'an (Quran / AlQuran / Al-Quran / Quran Majeed / Furqan Hameed / Quraan) gives a fix to all the issues of humankind.
Mushrikin follow only guesses and
The tale of the Prophet Nuh and his kin.
The tale of the Prophet Musa, Fir'on, and his chiefs.
Believing in the wake of seeing the scourge didn't profit any nation aside from the people of the Prophet Yunus.
Forbiddance against compelling anybody to change over to Islam.

Revelation:
According to the Islamic tradition, the chapter is predominantly revealed during the Meccan phase (610–622) of Muhammad's prophethood (before his move to Medina), therefore, a Meccan surat. Based on its context, some verses appeared to date to when Muhammad just started his call to Islam. According to the fifteenth century commentary Tafsir al-Jalalayn, some said that the sura was revealed sometime after Muhammad's Night Journey (c. 621). Verses 40 and 94–96 appeared to be an exception and were revealed in Medina. The congruity of the topic unmistakably shows this doesn't contain separated sections or talks that were uncovered at various occasions or on various events. Actually, it is, from the starting point to end, a firmly associated talk which more likely than not been uncovered at one sitting. Other than this, the nature of its subject is itself a reasonable confirmation that the Surah has a place with the Makkan time frame.


Content:
The initial verses of the chapter (1–70) presents an argumentative dialogue between Islam and its unbelievers. The rest contains the stories of Noah, Moses and Jonah, all considered prophets in Islam.

The chapter presents the Meccan pagans' objections against the Quran, and responds to them. The pagans said that Muhammad was a "manifest sorcerer" and that he fabricated the Quran. They also challenged Muhammad to immediately bring the punishment of God, if his claim was true
