In this lesson of Sūrah Yūsuf verses 1 to 10, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf begins the story described as the best of stories — the life of Prophet Yūsuf ʿalayhi al-salām. The lesson explores the beauty of the Qur’ān’s eloquence and the divine wisdom behind revealing the story in Arabic for understanding and reflection. We learn about Yūsuf’s profound dream and his father Yaʿqūb’s advice to keep it secret, foreseeing his other sons’ envy. The verses then uncover the jealousy brewing among Yūsuf’s brothers and their dark plot against him, ultimately deciding to cast him into a well instead of killing him. The opening of this remarkable narrative sets the stage for themes of jealousy, divine planning, and prophetic insight.
