1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,639 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 2 00:00:04,639 --> 00:00:10,189 A do not see 3 00:00:10,189 --> 00:00:15,070 These are the verses of the clear book 4 00:00:15,070 --> 00:00:24,670 We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur’an so that you may understand 5 00:00:24,670 --> 00:00:43,869 We relate to you the best stories of what We have revealed to you in this Qur’an, even though before it you were among the heedless 6 00:00:43,869 --> 00:01:01,869 When Joseph said to his father, O father, I saw eleven stars, and the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating to me 7 00:01:01,869 --> 00:01:18,670 He said, “O my son, do not relate your visions to your brothers, lest they plot a plot against you. Indeed, Satan is a clear enemy of man.” 8 00:01:18,670 --> 00:01:30,750 Likewise, your Lord will choose you and teach you how to interpret hadiths 9 00:01:30,750 --> 00:01:42,030 And He will complete His blessing upon you and upon the family of Jacob 10 00:01:42,030 --> 00:02:02,349 Just as He completed it upon your parents before Abraham and Isaac. Indeed, your Lord is All-Knowing, All-Wise 11 00:02:02,349 --> 00:02:10,189 There were signs in Joseph and his brothers for those who ask 12 00:02:10,270 --> 00:02:26,110 When they said to Joseph and his brother, he is more beloved to our father than we are, and we are a group. Indeed, our father is in clear error 13 00:02:26,110 --> 00:02:42,909 Kill Joseph or cast him to the ground, so that your father's favor may pass over you, and you will be righteous people after him 14 00:02:42,909 --> 00:03:06,030 One of them said, “Do not kill Joseph and throw him into the pit while he is gone and some car will pick him up, if you will.” 15 00:03:06,110 --> 00:03:20,750 They said, “O our father, what is the matter with you that you do not trust us with Joseph, and we are sincere to him.” 16 00:03:20,750 --> 00:03:29,550 Send him with us tomorrow to feed and play, and we will protect him 17 00:03:29,710 --> 00:03:44,830 He said, “It saddens me that you take him away, and I fear that the wolf will eat him while you are heedless of him.” 18 00:03:44,830 --> 00:03:54,189 They said: Because the wolf ate him while we were a group, then we would be losers 19 00:03:54,189 --> 00:04:11,389 When they took him and agreed to place him in the absence of the pit, and We revealed to him that you would inform them of this matter of theirs while they did not realize it. 20 00:04:11,389 --> 00:04:19,149 They came to their father at dinner crying 21 00:04:19,149 --> 00:04:42,449 They said, “O our father, we went out to get ahead of ourselves and left Joseph with our belongings, but the wolf ate him, and you would not be a believer in us, even if we were truthful.” 22 00:04:42,610 --> 00:05:07,250 And they came with false blood on his shirt. He said, “Rather, I asked yourselves to do a matter, so patience is beautiful, and God is the one who seeks help in what you describe.” 23 00:05:07,250 --> 00:05:28,290 A car came and they sent and brought them back. He brought out a bucket and said, “O human, this is a boy, and they captured his goods, and God is All-Knowing of what they do.” 24 00:05:28,290 --> 00:05:41,649 They bought it for a low price of a few dirhams, and they were ascetics 25 00:05:41,649 --> 00:06:11,250 And the one who bought him from Egypt said to his wife, “Honor his resting place. Perhaps he will benefit us or we will adopt him as a son.” Likewise, We established Joseph in the land and that We may teach him the interpretation of hadiths. 26 00:06:11,250 --> 00:06:21,009 God has power over his affairs, but most people do not know 27 00:06:21,009 --> 00:06:32,529 And when he reached maturity, We gave him wisdom and knowledge, and thus We reward the doers of good 28 00:06:32,610 --> 00:07:00,910 And she, in whose house he was in, comforted him and closed the doors and said, “Good for you.” He said, “God forbid.” He said, “Indeed, my Lord is the best of my abode. Indeed, the wrongdoers will not be afraid.” 29 00:07:00,910 --> 00:07:23,839 And I was interested in him and they were in it, had he not seen the proof of his Lord. Likewise, We would have averted evil and immorality from him. He is one of Our sincere servants. 30 00:07:23,839 --> 00:07:49,920 He stood ahead of the door, and she took off his shirt from the back and wrapped, “Oh, her master,” at the door. She said, “What is the recompense for whoever intends evil for your family except imprisonment or a painful punishment?” 31 00:07:50,000 --> 00:08:11,600 He said, "It came to me on my own behalf, and a witness from her family testified that his shirt had been torn off, then she told the truth, and he was one of the liars." 32 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:23,519 And if his shirt was torn from the back, then you lied, and he was one of the truthful ones 33 00:08:23,519 --> 00:08:40,159 When he saw that his shirt was torn from the back, he said, “It is part of your plot. Your plot is great.” 34 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:55,039 Joseph, turn away from this and ask forgiveness for your sin, for you were among the sinners 35 00:08:55,039 --> 00:09:13,759 And women in Medina said, “The woman of Al-Aziz deceived her young man about himself, and he honored her out of love. Indeed, we see her in clear error.” 36 00:09:13,759 --> 00:09:39,679 When I heard of their deception, I sent for them and prepared a dining room for them, and gave each of them a knife 37 00:09:39,679 --> 00:10:07,009 She said, “Go out to them.” When they saw him, they glorified him, cut off their hands, and said, “God forbid, this is not a human being. This is nothing but a generous king.” 38 00:10:07,090 --> 00:10:29,889 She said, “That is what you blamed me for, and I told him about himself, so he refrained from doing so, and if he does not do what I command him, he will be imprisoned and he will be among the lowly.” 39 00:10:29,889 --> 00:10:52,590 My Lord said, “Prison is more beloved to me than what they invite me to. Otherwise, turn away from me their plot, I will join them and be among the ignorant.” 40 00:10:52,590 --> 00:11:04,700 So his Lord responded to him and turned away from him their plot. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing 41 00:11:04,700 --> 00:11:17,899 Then some of the signs they saw appeared to them to imprison him for a while 42 00:11:17,980 --> 00:11:45,570 Two girls entered the prison with him. One of them said, “I saw me squeezing wine.” The other said, “I saw me carrying bread on my head, from which the birds ate. Inform us of its interpretation. Indeed, we see you as one of the doers of good.” 43 00:11:45,570 --> 00:12:06,610 He said: No food will come to you that you are provided with except that I will inform you of its interpretation before it comes to you. That is what my Lord has taught me. 44 00:12:06,610 --> 00:12:17,519 I have left the religion of a people who do not believe in God and are disbelievers in the Hereafter 45 00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:45,759 I followed the religion of the fathers of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It is not for us to associate anything with God. This is from God’s bounty upon us and upon the people, but most people are not grateful. 46 00:12:45,759 --> 00:13:02,320 O my companions of the prison, are different lords better or God the One, the All-Mighty? 47 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:23,230 You worship nothing besides Him except names you have named, you and your fathers, for which God has sent down no authority 48 00:13:23,230 --> 00:13:41,870 The rule belongs only to God. He commanded that you should not worship anyone but Him. That is the upright religion, but most people do not know 49 00:13:41,870 --> 00:14:02,350 O companions of the prison, as for one of you, his master will pour him wine, and as for the other, he will be crucified, and birds will eat from his head. The matter about which you are asking a fatwa has been decided. 50 00:14:02,350 --> 00:14:23,789 And he said to the one who thought he would be saved from them, “Remember me with your Lord,” but Satan made him forget to mention his Lord, so he stayed in prison for a few years. 51 00:14:23,789 --> 00:14:44,830 The king said, “I see seven fat cows being eaten by seven lean ones, and seven green ears of corn and some dry ones.” 52 00:14:44,830 --> 00:14:54,590 O eminent ones, give me a fatwa regarding my vision if you can express the vision 53 00:14:54,590 --> 00:15:04,850 They said they are just dreams, and we do not interpret dreams with two worlds 54 00:15:04,850 --> 00:15:19,730 And those of them who came and mentioned after a nation said, “I will inform you of its interpretation,” so they sent 55 00:15:19,730 --> 00:15:48,929 Joseph, O friend, advise us regarding seven fat cows eaten by seven lean ones, and seven green ears of corn and some dry ones, so that I may return to the people so that you may know. 56 00:15:48,929 --> 00:16:05,519 He said: You shall sow for seven years continually, and whatever you reap, leave it in its ears, except a little of what you shall eat 57 00:16:05,519 --> 00:16:23,919 Either after that will come seven hardships that will consume what you have given them, except a little of what you fortify 58 00:16:23,919 --> 00:16:40,980 Either there will come after that a year in which people will rain and in which they will squeeze 59 00:16:40,980 --> 00:17:07,329 The king said, “Bring him to me.” When the messenger came to him, he said, “Go back to your Lord and ask Him what is the matter with the women who cut off their hands. My Lord knows their plots.” 60 00:17:07,329 --> 00:17:21,890 He said: What is the matter with you when you reported to Joseph about himself? We said: God forbid that we knew of his evil 61 00:17:21,890 --> 00:17:37,250 Al-Aziz’s wife said, “Now the truth has come to fruition. I narrated it on his own authority, and he is one of the truthful.” 62 00:17:37,250 --> 00:17:52,609 This is so that he may know that I did not betray him in the unseen and that God does not guide the plots of the traitors 63 00:17:52,609 --> 00:18:11,069 And I do not absolve myself, for the soul is inclined to do evil, except what my Lord has mercy. Indeed, my Lord is Forgiving, Merciful 64 00:18:11,069 --> 00:18:25,390 The king said, “Bring it to me so I can extract it for myself.” When he spoke to him, he said, “Today we have a trustworthy person.” 65 00:18:25,390 --> 00:18:34,269 He said: He has placed me in charge of the treasures of the earth. Indeed, I am a Guardian, All-Knowing 66 00:18:34,269 --> 00:18:53,230 Likewise, We established Joseph in the land so that he could reside therein wherever he wished. We share with Our mercy whomever We wish, and We do not waste the reward of the doers of good. 67 00:18:53,230 --> 00:19:01,230 And the reward of the Hereafter is better for those who believe and fear 68 00:19:01,230 --> 00:19:13,950 Joseph's brothers came and entered upon him, and he recognized them, but they denied him 69 00:19:13,950 --> 00:19:31,390 And when he prepared them with their equipment, he said, “Bring to me a brother of yours from your father. Do you not see that I am adequate to the measure and I am the best of the two? 70 00:19:31,390 --> 00:19:40,109 If you do not bring it to me, then I have no measure for you, and you will not approach me 71 00:19:40,109 --> 00:19:47,470 They said: We will ward off his father from him, and indeed we will do so 72 00:19:47,470 --> 00:20:05,549 He said to his boys: “Put their goods in their bags, so that they may know them.” When they return to their families, they may return. 73 00:20:05,549 --> 00:20:30,430 When they returned to their father, they said, “O our father, measure is withheld from us, so send our brother with us so that we may measure up, and we will protect him.” 74 00:20:30,509 --> 00:20:47,230 He said: Did I trust you with him except as I trusted you with his brother before? God is the best guardian and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy 75 00:20:47,230 --> 00:21:14,990 And when they opened their belongings, they found that their merchandise had been returned to them. They said, “O our father, we do not want it. This is our merchandise that has been returned to us. We will protect our people, protect our brother, and increase a camel’s measure. That is a small measure.” 76 00:21:15,150 --> 00:21:39,869 He said, “I will not send him with you until you give him a pledge from God that you will bring him to me, unless you are surrounded.” When they gave him their pledge, he said, “God is a disposer of affairs over what we say.” 77 00:21:40,029 --> 00:22:03,069 He said, “O my son, do not enter through one gate, but enter through separate gates, and I am of no use to you before God.” 78 00:22:03,069 --> 00:22:16,029 Judgment belongs to God alone. In Him I trust, and in Him let those who trust put their trust 79 00:22:16,029 --> 00:22:39,150 And when they entered as their father had commanded them, nothing availed them of God except a need for a soul, which He fulfilled. 80 00:22:39,150 --> 00:22:50,509 Indeed, he has knowledge because of what we taught him, but most people do not know 81 00:22:50,509 --> 00:23:06,700 And when they entered upon Joseph, they took his brother to him. He said, “I am your brother, so do not be distressed by what they were doing.” 82 00:23:06,700 --> 00:23:25,740 When he had prepared them with their equipment, he placed the water-carrier on his brother’s saddlebags, and then a muezzin called out: “O caravan, you are indeed thieves.” 83 00:23:25,740 --> 00:23:49,900 They said and approached them, “What do you lose?” They said, “We lose the king’s sword, and whoever brings it has a camel’s burden, and I am a leader with it.” 84 00:23:49,900 --> 00:23:59,339 They said, “By God, you know that we have not come to spread corruption on earth, and we are not thieves.” 85 00:23:59,339 --> 00:24:07,339 They said: What is his reward if you are liars? 86 00:24:07,339 --> 00:24:19,339 They said: Whoever is found in his mount is his reward. This is how We reward the wrongdoers 87 00:24:19,420 --> 00:24:31,099 So he started with their vessels before his brother's vessel, then extracted them from his brother's vessel 88 00:24:31,099 --> 00:24:43,500 Likewise, we told Joseph that he would not take his brother into the religion of the king unless God willed 89 00:24:43,940 --> 00:24:56,220 We raise the ranks of whomsoever We will, and above all those with knowledge is the Knower 90 00:24:56,299 --> 00:25:19,420 They said: If he steals, a brother of his had stolen before, so Joseph kept it within himself and did not show it to them. He said, “You are in the worst place, and God knows best what you describe.” 91 00:25:19,420 --> 00:25:40,349 They said, O dear one, he has an old father, so take one of us in his place. We see you as one of the doers of good 92 00:25:40,349 --> 00:25:58,990 He said, “God forbid that we take anything except from whom we find our goods. Indeed, then we would be wrongdoers.” 93 00:25:58,990 --> 00:26:23,539 When they despaired of him, they were saved, and the eldest among them said, “Did you not know that your father had taken a covenant from God upon you, and before what you responded to Joseph?” 94 00:26:23,700 --> 00:26:34,740 I will not leave the earth until my father gives me permission or God rules for me, and He is the best of judges 95 00:26:34,740 --> 00:27:00,019 Return to your father and say, “O our father, your son stole, and we only testified to what we knew, and we were not guardians of the unseen.” 96 00:27:00,099 --> 00:27:12,740 He asked the village in which we were and the caravan to which we arrived, and we are truthful 97 00:27:12,740 --> 00:27:21,619 He said, “Rather, I asked yourselves to do something, so patience was beautiful.” 98 00:27:21,700 --> 00:27:32,910 May God bring them all to me. He is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise 99 00:27:32,910 --> 00:27:48,269 He turned away from them and said, “How sorry for Joseph,” and his eyes turned white with sadness, for he was depressed 100 00:27:48,269 --> 00:27:58,349 They said, “By God, you will continue to remember Joseph until you become a victim or become one of those who perish.” 101 00:27:58,349 --> 00:28:09,470 He said, “I only complain of my grief and sadness to God, and I know from God what you do not know.” 102 00:28:09,470 --> 00:28:17,549 My sons, go and feel for Joseph and his brother and do not despair 103 00:28:17,549 --> 00:28:31,569 And do not despair of the Spirit of God. No one despairs of the Spirit of God except the disbelieving people 104 00:28:31,569 --> 00:28:59,170 When they entered upon him, they said, O Mighty One, calamity has befallen us and our people, and we have brought mixed goods, so we gave the measure and you gave us alms. Indeed, God rewards those who give alms. 105 00:28:59,250 --> 00:29:09,650 He said, “Do you know what you did to Joseph and his brother, since you were ignorant?” 106 00:29:09,650 --> 00:29:33,710 They said, "Are you? Because you are Joseph." He said, "I am Joseph. This is my brother. God has bestowed upon us. He who fears and is patient, God will not waste the reward of the doers of good." 107 00:29:33,710 --> 00:29:47,470 They said, “By God, God has preferred you over us, even if we were wrong.” 108 00:29:47,470 --> 00:30:17,759 He said, "There is no blame on you today. May God forgive you, and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy. Go with this shirt of mine and throw it on my father's face. He will come to see, and bring all your families to me." 109 00:30:17,759 --> 00:30:32,000 When the caravan was separated, their father said, “I can smell the scent of Joseph, had it not been for you.” 110 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:39,599 They said, “By God, you are in your old error.” 111 00:30:39,599 --> 00:31:00,190 When he delivered the glad tidings, he threw him on his face, and he returned, seeing. He said, “Did I not tell you that I know better than God what you do not know?” 112 00:31:00,269 --> 00:31:08,589 They said, O Father, we ask forgiveness for our sins, for we were sinners 113 00:31:08,589 --> 00:31:18,539 He said, “I will ask my Lord for forgiveness for you. Indeed, He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.” 114 00:31:18,619 --> 00:31:31,660 When they entered upon Joseph, his parents took him to him and said, “They will enter Egypt, God willing, in safety.” 115 00:31:31,660 --> 00:31:38,059 He raised his parents to the throne and bowed down to him in prostration 116 00:31:38,059 --> 00:31:47,180 And he said, “O my father, this is the interpretation of a vision from before that my Lord has made real.” 117 00:31:47,259 --> 00:32:00,059 He did me good by releasing me from prison and bringing you Bedouins 118 00:32:00,059 --> 00:32:06,619 After Satan deviated between me and my brothers 119 00:32:06,619 --> 00:32:19,099 Indeed, my Lord is kind to what He wills. Indeed, He is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise 120 00:32:19,099 --> 00:32:27,660 My Lord, You have given me power and taught me the interpretation of hadiths 121 00:32:27,660 --> 00:32:35,259 Creator of the heavens and the earth, you are my guardian in this world and the hereafter 122 00:32:35,259 --> 00:32:42,779 Take me to death as a Muslim and join me with the righteous 123 00:32:42,779 --> 00:32:49,740 This is news of the unseen that we reveal to you 124 00:32:49,740 --> 00:32:57,579 And I was not with them when they made up their mind while plotting 125 00:32:57,579 --> 00:33:04,859 And how many people would there be, even if you were guarded by believers 126 00:33:04,859 --> 00:33:13,339 And you ask them of no reward for it. It is only a reminder to the worlds 127 00:33:13,339 --> 00:33:27,740 As if there is a sign in the heavens and the earth that they pass by while turning away from it 128 00:33:27,740 --> 00:33:35,819 Most of them do not believe in God unless they are polytheists 129 00:33:35,819 --> 00:33:52,380 Are they secure that the punishment of God will not come upon them suddenly, or that the Hour will come upon them suddenly while they do not perceive it? 130 00:33:52,539 --> 00:34:02,619 Say: This is my path. I call to God with insight, myself and those who follow me 131 00:34:02,619 --> 00:34:08,860 Glory be to God, and I am not of the polytheists 132 00:34:08,860 --> 00:34:18,460 We did not send before you except men to whom We inspired from the people of the towns 133 00:34:18,460 --> 00:34:27,179 Did they not travel through the land and see what was the end of those before them? 134 00:34:27,179 --> 00:34:35,099 And the abode of the Hereafter is better for those who fear. Do you not understand? 135 00:34:35,099 --> 00:34:58,780 Even when the messengers despaired and thought that they had lied, Our victory came to them, and we saved whomever We wished 136 00:34:58,780 --> 00:35:04,460 Our punishment will not be turned away from the criminal people 137 00:35:04,460 --> 00:35:11,500 Their stories are a lesson for those with understanding 138 00:35:11,500 --> 00:35:24,380 It was not a fabricated hadith, but rather a confirmation of what was before him 139 00:35:24,380 --> 00:35:35,099 And detailing of everything, and guidance and guidance and mercy for a people who believe
