In Episode 46 of The Speaking Quran, we arrive at the powerful conclusion of Surah Yusuf. This lecture dives deep into a difficult truth: the unrealistic and damaging expectations we place on our religious leaders.

We explore why we expect our scholars and imams to be "like angels" and how our judgment is the real reason many are forced to hide their humanity or withdraw from the community.

This final tafseer of Surah Yusuf also covers:

• Why the Quran repeatedly reminds us that the Prophets were human: they got tired, felt hurt, and needed time with their families.
• The crucial lesson from the Battle of Hunayn, when thousands fled and Allah granted victory to the nine who stayed.
• The moments when even Prophets felt like they hit a "dead end," and why Allah's help comes at the point of greatest difficulty.
• A "homework" assignment from Surat Al-Baqarah (2:214) that reveals the nature of our own modern tests—from a $1.7 million car to a $70 donation.
