The Story of Yusuf (Joseph), as told by Qur'anic verses - 1

Dear’s Assalamu Alaikum (var)

Well n Wish the same from you. Wish you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR 1429. Am back here with the notes about the Prophets (peace be upon them all).

All prophets (peace be upon them all), gave guidance and instruction to their people about how to properly worship God and live their lives. Since God is one, his message has been one and the same throughout time. In essence, all prophets taught the message of Islam - to find peace in your life through submission to the one almighty creator -- to believe in God and to follow his guidance.

Each of these prophets is believed to have been instructed by God to warn his community against evil and urge his people to obey God; however, only some are believed to have been sent holy books such as the Tawrat, Zabur, and Injil, and those prophets are considered "messengers". Of all the thousands of prophets, a tiny minority of these are believed to be messengers, or rasul. Only Muhammad is regarded as having undertaken a prophetic mission addressed to all of humanity rather than a specific populace.

The Quran identifies a number of men as prophets of Islam. Traditionally, five prophets are regarded as important in Islam: Nuh (Noah), Ibrahim (Abraham), Musa (Moses), Isa (Jesus) and Muhammad. Such individuals are believed by Muslims to have been assigned a special mission by God to guide mankind. In the Quran, prophets such as Moses, Jesus and Muhammad are appointed to spread the word of Allah.

And Allah has given an entire Surah (Chapter) especially for Hazrath Yusuf (pbuh). Totally 111 verses were found in this Chapter. In 99 verses continuously Yusuf (pbuh) was getting repeated. One who reads these verses get a feel like reading a Story or a History. Also few of peoples mention this as a Love Story. In this Chapter Allah says about LOVE. Allah says how much the human creature is being get affected by this LOVE. In World’s History we have seen lots of Love Stories like LAYLA – MAJNUN, SHIRIN – FARHAD, SONY – MAHIWAL & ROMEO – JULIET. Even though some couples mentioned above had truly lived in this world, most of fictions get narrated by some poets and writers and had been spread false stories about them worldwide. Also Movies had been produced and being released worldwide in most of the Languages.

In Quran, the given “YUSUF – ZULAIKHA” story is been narrated in the facts which held in the period of Yusuf (pbuh). In Quran Allah praises this love story. Allah says: We do relate unto thee the most beautiful of stories, in that We reveal to thee this (portion of the) Qur'an: before this, thou too was among those who knew it not 12.3 Q.

Dears I am hereby posting the Entire Verses of the Chapter Joseph/Yusuf. Also a narrated Story from the Verses of the Chapter Joseph/Yusuf. Do find the same and leave your comments.

Love you All. May Allah shower Blessing on you All.

HASEEM
