because of his faith

Source: Tafseer as-Sa’dee

“And (remember) Dhun-Nun (Jonah), when he went off in anger, and imagined that We shall not punish him (i.e. the calamities which had befallen him)! But he cried through the darkness (saying): Laa ilaaha illa Anta [none has the right to be worshipped but You (O, Allaah)], Glorified (and Exalted) be You [above all that (evil) they associate with You]! Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers / So We answered his call, and delivered him from the distress. And thus We do deliver the believers”
~ Surat ul-Ambiyaa, 21:87-88

Shaykh ‘Abd ur-Rahmaan as-Sa’dee (rahimahullaah) comments:

“{And thus We do deliver the believers}: this is a promise and glad tidings for every believer who falls in a hardship and distress that Allaah, ta’aala, will save him from it, remove it from him and make it easy because of his eemaan (faith), as He had done with Yoonus, ‘alayhi ssalaam.”
