قصة سيدنا يوسف باللغة الانجليزية
<blockquote class="postcontent " style="padding-left: 7px; padding-right: 7px;">This
is the most detailed and fascinating story in the Qur'an, involving
both human weaknesses such as jealousy, hatred, pride, passion,
deception, intrigue, cruelty, terror as well as noble qualities such as
patience, loyalty, bravery, nobility, and compassion.
It is
related that among the reasons for its revelation is that the Jews asked
the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) to tell them about Joseph (PBUH), who was
one of their old prophets. His story had been distorted in parts and
marred in others with interpolations and exclusions. Therefore it was
revealed in the Book of Allah (Qur'an), complete in its minute and
careful details.
Allah the Almighty declared: «We relate unto
you (Muhammad) the best of stories through Our Revelations unto you, of
this Qur'an. And before this (i.e. before the coming of Divine
Inspiration to you), you were among those who knew nothing about it (the
Qur'an). » Surah 12:3
Almighty Allah also decreed: «Thus we
relate to you (O Muhammad) some information of what happened before. And
indeed we have given you from Us a Reminder (this Qur'an). Whoever
turns away from it (this Qur'an - i.e. does not believe in it, nor acts
on its orders), verily, they will bear a heavy burden (of sins) on the
Day of Resurrection. They will abide in that (state in the Fire of
Hell), and evil indeed will it be that load for them on the Day of
Resurrection.» Surah 20: 99-101.
The story of Joseph (PBUH)
moves in a stream from beginning to end; its substance and form are
equally coherent. It inspires you with a feeling for the depth of
Allah's power and supremacy and the execution of His rulings despite the
challenge of human intervention, «And Allah has full power and control
over His Affairs, but most of men know not. » Surah 12:21.
This is what the story of Joseph (PBUH), confirms categorically, for it ends with comfort and marvels.
Joseph lived all his life confronting schemes made by the people
closest to him. His brothers plotted to kill him, but they amended it to
exiling him. This happened to him while he was a boy. He was sold into
the slave market in Egypt, where he was bought for a nominal sum. Then
he fell victim to the attempted seduction by a great man's wife who,
when her wish was foiled, sent him to prison, where he remained for some
time. In spite of all this, he at length approached close to the
Egyptian throne and became the king's chief minister. He then began his
call to Allah from the position of the ruling authority.
