| 'Alif-Lām-Rā Tilka 'Āyātu Al-Kitābi Al-Mubīni | Alif-Lām-Rā. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur'an, and none but Allāh (Alone) knows their meanings]. These are the Verses of the Clear Book (the Qur'ān that makes clear the legal and illegal things, legal laws, a guidance and a blessing). (Yusuf 12:1) | أَلِف-لَام-رَا تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ |
| 'Innā 'Anzalnāhu Qur'ānāan `Arabīyāan La`allakum Ta`qilūna | Verily, We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur'ān in order that you may understand. (Yusuf 12:2) | إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاه ُُ قُرْآناً عَرَبِيّا ً لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ |
| Naĥnu Naquşşu `Alayka 'Aĥsana Al-Qaşaşi Bimā 'Awĥaynā 'Ilayka Hādhā Al-Qur'āna Wa 'In Kunta Min Qablihi Lamina Al-Ghāfilīna | We relate unto you (Muhammad SAW) the best of stories through Our Revelations unto you, of this Qur'ān. And before this (i.e. before the coming of Divine Inspiration to you), you were among those who knew nothing about it (the Qur'ān). (Yusuf 12:3) | نَحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ أَحْسَنَ الْقَصَصِ بِمَا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ هَذَا الْقُرْآنَ وَإِنْ كُنتَ مِنْ قَبْلِه ِِ لَمِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ |
| 'Idh Qāla Yūsufu Li'abīhi Yā 'Abati 'Innī Ra'aytu 'Aĥada `Ashara Kawkabāan Wa Ash-Shamsa Wa Al-Qamara Ra'aytuhum Lī Sājidīna | (Remember) when Yûsuf (Joseph) said to his father: "O my father! Verily, I saw (in a dream) eleven stars and the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating themselves to me." (Yusuf 12:4) | إِذْ قَالَ يُوسُفُ لِأَبِيه ِِ يَاأَبَتِ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ كَوْكَبا ً وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ رَأَيْتُهُمْ لِي سَاجِدِينَ |
| Qāla Yā Bunayya Lā Taqşuş Ru'uyā Ka `Alá 'Ikhwatika Fayakīdū Laka Kaydāan 'Inna Ash-Shayţāna Lil'insāni `Adūwun Mubīnun | He (the father) said: "O my son! Relate not your vision to your brothers, lest they arrange a plot against you. Verily! Shaitān (Satan) is to man an open enemy! (Yusuf 12:5) | قَالَ يَابُنَيَّ لاَ تَقْصُصْ رُؤْيَاكَ عَلَى إِخْوَتِكَ فَيَكِيدُوا لَكَ كَيْدا ً إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لِلإِنسَانِ عَدُوّ ٌ مُبِين ٌ |
| Wa Kadhalika Yajtabīka Rabbuka Wa Yu`allimuka Min Ta'wīli Al-'Aĥādīthi Wa Yutimmu Ni`matahu `Alayka Wa `Alá 'Āli Ya`qūba Kamā 'Atammahā `Alá 'Abawayka Min Qablu 'Ibrāhīma Wa 'Isĥāqa 'Inna Rabbaka `Alīmun Ĥakīmun | "Thus will your Lord choose you and teach you the interpretation of dreams (and other things) and perfect His Favour on you and on the offspring of Ya'qûb (Jacob), as He perfected it on your fathers, Ibrahīm (Abraham) and Ishāque (Isaac) aforetime! Verily, your Lord is All-Knowing, All-Wise." (Yusuf 12:6) | وَكَذَلِكَ يَجْتَبِيكَ رَبُّكَ وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِنْ تَأْوِيلِ الأَحَادِيثِ وَيُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَه ُُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى آلِ يَعْقُوبَ كَمَا أَتَمَّهَا عَلَى أَبَوَيْكَ مِنْ قَبْلُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيم ٌ |
| Laqad Kāna Fī Yūsufa Wa 'Ikhwatihi 'Āyātun Lilssā'ilīna | Verily, in Yûsuf (Joseph) and his brethren, there were Ayāt (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) for those who ask. (Yusuf 12:7) | لَقَدْ كَانَ فِي يُوسُفَ وَإِخْوَتِهِ آيَات ٌ لِلسَّائِلِينَ |
| 'Idh Qālū Layūsufu Wa 'Akhūhu 'Aĥabbu 'Ilá 'Abīnā Minnā Wa Naĥnu `Uşbatun 'Inna 'Abānā Lafī Đalālin Mubīnin | When they said: "Truly, Yûsuf (Joseph) and his brother (Benjamin) are loved more by our father than we, but we are 'Usbah (a strong group). Really, our father is in a plain error. (Yusuf 12:8) | إِذْ قَالُوا لَيُوسُفُ وَأَخُوهُ~ُ أَحَبُّ إِلَى أَبِينَا مِنَّا وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَة ٌ إِنَّ أَبَانَا لَفِي ضَلاَل ٍ مُبِين ٍ |
| Aqtulū Yūsufa 'Awi Aţraĥūhu 'Arđāan Yakhlu Lakum Wajhu 'Abīkum Wa Takūnū Min Ba`dihi Qawmāan Şāliĥīna | "Kill Yûsuf (Joseph) or cast him out to some (other) land, so that the favour of your father may be given to you alone, and after that you will be righteous folk (by intending repentance before committing the sin)." (Yusuf 12:9) | اقْتُلُوا يُوسُفَ أَوِ اطْرَحُوهُ~ُ أَرْضا ً يَخْلُ لَكُمْ وَجْهُ أَبِيكُمْ وَتَكُونُوا مِنْ بَعْدِه ِِ قَوْما ً صَالِحِينَ |
| Qāla Qā'ilun Minhum Lā Taqtulū Yūsufa Wa 'Alqūhu Fī Ghayābati Al-Jubbi Yaltaqiţhu Ba`đu As-Sayyārati 'In Kuntum Fā`ilīna | One from among them said: "Kill not Yûsuf (Joseph), but if you must do something, throw him down to the bottom of a well, he will be picked up by some caravan of travellers." (Yusuf 12:10) | قَالَ قَائِل ٌ مِنْهُمْ لاَ تَقْتُلُوا يُوسُفَ وَأَلْقُوه ُُ فِي غَيَابَتِ الْجُبِّ يَلْتَقِطْهُ بَعْضُ السَّيَّارَةِ إِنْ كُنتُمْ فَاعِلِينَ |
| Qālū Yā 'Abānā Mā Laka Lā Ta'mannā `Alá Yūsufa Wa 'Innā Lahu Lanāşiĥūna | They said: "O our father! Why do you not trust us with Yûsuf (Joseph), - when we are indeed his well-wishers?" (Yusuf 12:11) | قَالُوا يَاأَبَانَا مَا لَكَ لاَ تَأْمَنَّا عَلَى يُوسُفَ وَإِنَّا لَه ُُ لَنَاصِحُونَ |
| 'Arsilhu Ma`anā Ghadāan Yarta` Wa Yal`ab Wa 'Innā Lahu Laĥāfižūna | "Send him with us tomorrow to enjoy himself and play, and verily, we will take care of him." (Yusuf 12:12) | أَرْسِلْهُ مَعَنَا غَدا ً يَرْتَعْ وَيَلْعَبْ وَإِنَّا لَه ُُ لَحَافِظُونَ |
| Qāla 'Innī Layaĥzununī 'An Tadh/habū Bihi Wa 'Akhāfu 'An Ya'kulahu Adh-Dhi'bu Wa 'Antum `Anhu Ghāfilūna | He [Ya'qûb (Jacob)] said: "Truly, it saddens me that you should take him away. I fear lest a wolf should devour him, while you are careless of him." (Yusuf 12:13) | قَالَ إِنِّي لَيَحْزُنُنِي أَنْ تَذْهَبُوا بِه ِِ وَأَخَافُ أَنْ يَأْكُلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَأَنْتُمْ عَنْهُ غَافِلُونَ |
| Qālū La'in 'Akalahu Adh-Dhi'bu Wa Naĥnu `Uşbatun 'Innā 'Idhāan Lakhāsirūna | They said: "If a wolf devours him, while we are 'Usbah (a strong group) (to guard him), then surely, we are the losers." (Yusuf 12:14) | قَالُوا لَئِنْ أَكَلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَة ٌ إِنَّا إِذا ً لَخَاسِرُونَ |
| Falammā Dhahabū Bihi Wa 'Ajma`ū 'An Yaj`alūhu Fī Ghayābati Al-Jubbi Wa 'Awĥaynā 'Ilayhi Latunabbi'annahum Bi'amrihim Hādhā Wa Hum Lā Yash`urūna | So, when they took him away, they all agreed to throw him down to the bottom of the well, and We inspired in him:"Indeed, you shall (one day) inform them of this their affair, when they know (you) not." (Yusuf 12:15) | فَلَمَّا ذَهَبُوا بِه ِِ وَأَجْمَعُوا أَنْ يَجْعَلُوه ُُ فِي غَيَابَتِ الْجُبِّ وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِ لَتُنَبِّئَنَّهُمْ بِأَمْرِهِمْ هَذَا وَهُمْ لاَ يَشْعُرُونَ |
| Wa Jā'ū 'Abāhum `Ishā'an Yabkūna | And they came to their father in the early part of the night weeping. (Yusuf 12:16) | وَجَاءُوا أَبَاهُمْ عِشَاء ً يَبْكُونَ |
| Qālū Yā 'Abānā 'Innā Dhahabnā Nastabiqu Wa Taraknā Yūsufa `Inda Matā`inā Fa'akalahu Adh-Dhi'bu Wa Mā 'Anta Bimu'uminin Lanā Wa Law Kunnā Şādiqīna | They said:"O our father! We went racing with one another, and left Yûsuf (Joseph) by our belongings and a wolf devoured him; but you will never believe us even when we speak the truth." (Yusuf 12:17) | قَالُوا يَا أَبَانَا إِنَّا ذَهَبْنَا نَسْتَبِقُ وَتَرَكْنَا يُوسُفَ عِنْدَ مَتَاعِنَا فَأَكَلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَمَا أَنْتَ بِمُؤْمِن ٍ لَنَا وَلَوْ كُنَّا صَادِقِينَ |
| Wa Jā'ū `Alá Qamīşihi Bidamin Kadhibin Qāla Bal Sawwalat Lakum 'Anfusukum 'Amrāan Faşabrun Jamīlun Wa Allāhu Al-Musta`ānu `Alá Mā Taşifūna | And they brought his shirt stained with false blood. He said: "Nay, but your ownselves have made up a tale. So (for me) patience is most fitting. And it is Allāh (Alone) Whose help can be sought against that which you assert." (Yusuf 12:18) | وَجَاءُوا عَلَى قَمِيصِه ِِ بِدَم ٍ كَذِب ٍ قَالَ بَلْ سَوَّلَتْ لَكُمْ أَنفُسُكُمْ أَمْرا ً فَصَبْر ٌ جَمِيل ٌ وَاللَّهُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلَى مَا تَصِفُونَ |

He said: "What good news! Here is a boy." So they hid him as merchandise (a slave). And Allāh was the All-Knower of what they did. (Yusuf 12:19) | وَجَاءَتْ سَيَّارَة ٌ فَأَرْسَلُوا وَارِدَهُمْ فَأَدْلَى دَلْوَه ُُ قَالَ يَا بُشْرَى هَذَا غُلاَم ٌ وَأَسَرُّوه ُُ بِضَاعَة ً وَاللَّهُ عَلِيم ٌ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ |
| Wa Sharawhu Bithamanin Bakhsin Darāhima Ma`dūdatin Wa Kānū Fīhi Mina Az-Zāhidīna | And they sold him for a low price, - for a few Dirhams (i.e. for a few silver coins). And they were of those who regarded him insignificant. (Yusuf 12:20) | وَشَرَوْهُ بِثَمَن ٍ بَخْس ٍ دَرَاهِمَ مَعْدُودَة ٍ وَكَانُوا فِيه ِِ مِنَ الزَّاهِدِينَ |

Thus did We establish Yûsuf (Joseph) in the land, that We might teach him the interpretation of events. And Allāh has full power and control over His Affairs, but most of men know not. (Yusuf 12:21) | وَقَالَ الَّذِي اشْتَرَاه ُُ مِنْ مِصْرَ لِإمْرَأَتِهِ~ِ أَكْرِمِي مَثْوَاه ُُ عَسَى أَنْ يَنفَعَنَا أَوْ نَتَّخِذَه ُُ وَلَدا ً وَكَذَلِكَ مَكَّنَّا لِيُوسُفَ فِي الأَرْضِ وَلِنُعَلِّمَه ُُ مِنْ تَأْوِيلِ الأَحَادِيثِ وَاللَّهُ غَالِبٌ عَلَى أَمْرِه ِِ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ |
| Wa Lammā Balagha 'Ashuddahu 'Ātaynāhu Ĥukmāan Wa `Ilmāan Wa Kadhalika Najzī Al-Muĥsinīna | And when he [Yûsuf (Joseph)] attained his full manhood, We gave him wisdom and knowledge (the Prophethood), thus We reward the Muhsinûn (doers of good - see V.2:112). (Yusuf 12:22) | وَلَمَّا بَلَغَ أَشُدَّهُ آتَيْنَاه ُُ حُكْما ً وَعِلْما ً وَكَذَلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ |

He said: "I seek refuge in Allāh (or Allāh forbid)! Truly, he (your husband) is my master! He made my stay agreeable! (So I will never betray him). Verily, the Zālimûn (wrong and evil-doers) will never be successful." (Yusuf 12:23) | وَرَاوَدَتْهُ الَّتِي هُوَ فِي بَيْتِهَا عَنْ نَفْسِه ِِ وَغَلَّقَتِ الأَبْوَابَ وَقَالَتْ هَيْتَ لَكَ قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ إِنَّه ُُ رَبِّي أَحْسَنَ مَثْوَايَ إِنَّهُ لاَ يُفْلِحُ الظَّالِمُونَ |

Thus it was, that We might turn away from him evil and illegal sexual intercourse. Surely, he was one of Our chosen, guided slaves. (Yusuf 12:24) | وَلَقَدْ هَمَّتْ بِه ِِ وَهَمَّ بِهَا لَوْلاَ أَنْ رَأَى بُرْهَانَ رَبِّه ِِ كَذَلِكَ لِنَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ السُّوءَ وَالْفَحْشَاءَ إِنَّه ُُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُخْلَصِينَ |

They both found her lord (i.e. her husband) at the door. She said: "What is the recompense (punishment) for him who intended an evil design against your wife, except that he be put in prison or a painful torment?" (Yusuf 12:25) | وَاسْتَبَقَا الْبَابَ وَقَدَّتْ قَمِيصَه ُُ مِنْ دُبُر ٍ وَأَلْفَيَا سَيِّدَهَا لَدَى الْبَابِ قَالَتْ مَا جَزَاءُ مَنْ أَرَادَ بِأَهْلِكَ سُوءا ً إِلاَّ أَنْ يُسْجَنَ أَوْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيم ٌ |

(Yusuf 12:26) | قَالَ هِيَ رَاوَدَتْنِي عَنْ نَفْسِي وَشَهِدَ شَاهِد ٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا إِنْ كَانَ قَمِيصُه ُُ قُدَّ مِنْ قُبُل ٍ فَصَدَقَتْ وَهُوَ مِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ |
| Wa 'In Kāna Qamīşuhu Qudda Min Duburin Fakadhabat Wa Huwa Mina Aş-Şādiqīna | "But if it be that his shirt is torn from the back, then she has told a lie and he is speaking the truth!" (Yusuf 12:27) | وَإِنْ كَانَ قَمِيصُه ُُ قُدَّ مِنْ دُبُر ٍ فَكَذَبَتْ وَهُوَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ |

Certainly mighty is your plot! (Yusuf 12:28) | فَلَمَّا رَأَى قَمِيصَه ُُ قُدَّ مِنْ دُبُر ٍ قَالَ إِنَّه ُُ مِنْ كَيْدِكُنَّ إِنَّ كَيْدَكُنَّ عَظِيم ٌ |
| Yūsufu 'A`riđ `An Hādhā Wa Astaghfirī Lidhanbiki 'Innaki Kunti Mina Al-Khāţi'īna | "O Yûsuf (Joseph)! Turn away from this! (O woman!) Ask forgiveness for your sin. Verily, you were of the sinful." (Yusuf 12:29) | يُوسُفُ أَعْرِضْ عَنْ هَذَا وَاسْتَغْفِرِي لِذَنْبِكِ إِنَّكِ كُنتِ مِنَ الْخَاطِئِينَ |

(Yusuf 12:30) | وَقَالَ نِسْوَة ٌ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ امْرَأَتُ الْعَزِيزِ تُرَاوِدُ فَتَاهَا عَنْ نَفْسِه ِِ قَدْ شَغَفَهَا حُبّا ً إِنَّا لَنَرَاهَا فِي ضَلاَل ٍ مُبِين ٍ |

Then, when they saw him, they exalted him (at his beauty) and (in their astonishment) cut their hands. They said: "How perfect is Allāh (or Allāh forbid)! No man is this! This is none other than a noble angel!" (Yusuf 12:31) | فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ بِمَكْرِهِنَّ أَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِنَّ وَأَعْتَدَتْ لَهُنَّ مُتَّكَأ ً وَآتَتْ كُلَّ وَاحِدَة ٍ مِنْهُنَّ سِكِّينا ً وَقَالَتِ اخْرُجْ عَلَيْهِنَّ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْنَهُ~ُ أَكْبَرْنَه ُُ وَقَطَّعْنَ أَيْدِيَهُنَّ وَقُلْنَ حَاشَ لِلَّهِ مَا هَذَا بَشَرا ً إِنْ هَذَا إِلاَّ مَلَك ٌ كَرِيم ٌ |

And now if he refuses to obey my order, he shall certainly be cast into prison, and will be one of those who are disgraced." (Yusuf 12:32) | قَالَتْ فَذَلِكُنَّ الَّذِي لُمْتُنَّنِي فِيه ِِ وَلَقَدْ رَاوَدتُّه ُُ عَنْ نَفْسِه ِِ فَاسْتَعْصَمَ وَلَئِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ مَا آمُرُه ُُ لَيُسْجَنَنَّ وَلَيَكُونا ً مِنَ الصَّاغِرِينَ |

Prison is more to my liking than that to which they invite me. Unless You turn away their plot from me, I will feel inclined towards them and be one (of those who commit sin and deserve blame or those who do deeds) of the ignorants." (Yusuf 12:33) | قَالَ رَبِّ السِّجْنُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا يَدْعُونَنِي إِلَيْهِ وَإِلاَّ تَصْرِفْ عَنِّي كَيْدَهُنَّ أَصْبُ إِلَيْهِنَّ وَأَكُنْ مِنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ |

One of them said: "Verily, I saw myself (in a dream) pressing wine." The other said: "Verily, I saw myself (in a dream) carrying bread on my head and birds were eating thereof." (They said): "Inform us of the interpretation of this. Verily, we think you are one of the Muhsinûn (doers of good - see V.2:112)." (Yusuf 12:36) | وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُ السِّجْنَ فَتَيَانِ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا إِنِّي أَرَانِي أَعْصِرُ خَمْرا ً وَقَالَ الآخَرُ إِنِّي أَرَانِي أَحْمِلُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي خُبْزا ً تَأْكُلُ الطَّيْرُ مِنْهُ نَبِّئْنَا بِتَأْوِيلِهِ~ِ إِنَّا نَرَاكَ مِنَ الْمُحْسِنِينَ |

This is of that which my Lord has taught me. Verily, I have abandoned the religion of a people that believe not in Allāh and are disbelievers in the Hereafter (i.e. the Kan'āniûn of Egypt who were polytheists and used to worship sun and other false deities).
