Stories of the Prophets

07

Yusuf

يوسف عليه السلام

Surah Yusuf is the longest continuous story in the Quran. It is called the best of stories. The dream of eleven stars. The well. The house in Egypt. The prison. The king. The brothers. The shirt thrown over Yaqub’s face.

Almost every beat is Quran. Hadith does not add a second plot. The Prophet said the noble son of a noble son of a noble son of a noble man is Yusuf son of Yaqub son of Ishaq son of Ibrahim.

From the Quran

  • 12:4O my father, I saw eleven stars and the sun and the moon

    O my father, I saw eleven stars and the sun and the moon

  • 12:15They threw him in the well

    They threw him in the well

  • 12:24She desired him; he would have desired her had he not seen the proof of his Lord

    She desired him; he would have desired her had he not seen the proof of his Lord

  • 12:54You are today with us established and trusted

    You are today with us established and trusted

  • 12:96The shirt thrown over Yaqub’s face, and he could see

    The shirt thrown over Yaqub’s face, and he could see

From the Sunnah

  • Sahih al Bukhari 3390The noble, son of the noble, son of the noble, son of the noble: Yusuf

    The noble, son of the noble, son of the noble, son of the noble: Yusuf

  • Sahih al Bukhari 3389The same door of the prophets — Yusuf

    The same door of the prophets — Yusuf

Do not film Yusuf. The Quran already told it better than a series.
