quran:21:83 –

And ˹mention˺ Job, when he called to his Lord, "Indeed, adversity has touched me, and you are the Most Merciful of the merciful."  

And, mention, Job (Ayyūba, is substituted by ˹the following, idh nādā rabbahu …˺) when he called out to his Lord — after he had been afflicted with the loss of all of his possessions and children, the laceration of his body, his being shunned by all except his wife, for a period of thirteen, seventeen, or eighteen years, as well as ˹the affliction of enduring˺ a straitened means of livelihood — ‘Indeed (read annī because of the implicit yā’ ˹of the first person pronoun˺) harm, adversity, has befallen me, and You are the Most Merciful of the merciful’.
القرآن:٢١:٨٣ –

وَأَيُّوبَ إِذْ نَادَىٰ رَبَّهُ أَنِّي مَسَّنِيَ الضُّرُّ وَأَنْتَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ  

{و} اذكر {أيوب} ويبدل منه {إذ نادى ربه} لما ابتلي بفقد جميع ماله وولده وتمزيق جسده وهجر جميع الناس له إلا زوجته سنين ثلاثا أو سبعاً أو ثماني عشرة وضيق عيشه {أني} بفتح الهمزة بتقدير الياء {مسنيَ الضر} أي الشدة {وأنت أرحم الراحمين}.
