🌙 Title: Prophet Yusuf (AS) – The Test of Patience (Part 2)
After being taken to Egypt, Yusuf (AS) was sold in the market like a slave. A kind and wealthy man, known as Al-Aziz, bought him and took him to his home. He treated Yusuf (AS) well and said to his wife, "Take good care of him. Maybe he will benefit us, or we may adopt him as our son."
Yusuf (AS) grew up in that house with good character, wisdom, and beauty. As he became a young man, Allah blessed him with deep understanding and knowledge.
However, a difficult test was waiting for him.
The wife of Al-Aziz became attracted to Yusuf (AS) because of his beauty and purity. One day, she tried to tempt him when they were alone in the house. She locked the doors and invited him towards sin.
But Yusuf (AS) was a true servant of Allah. He immediately refused and said, "I seek refuge in Allah! My master has been good to me. I cannot betray his trust."
He tried to run away, but she chased him. As he reached the door, she grabbed his shirt from behind, and it tore. At that very moment, her husband entered and saw them.
To protect herself, she blamed Yusuf (AS) and accused him falsely.
Yusuf (AS) spoke the truth and said he was innocent. A witness from her family suggested that if Yusuf's shirt was torn from the front, he was guilty. But if it was torn from the back, then he was innocent.
When they saw that his shirt was torn from the back, it became clear that Yusuf (AS) was telling the truth.
Even though he was innocent, rumors spread throughout the city. People began to talk about the incident, and the wife of Al-Aziz felt embarrassed.
To defend herself, she invited many women and gave each of them a knife and fruit. Then she asked Yusuf (AS) to come into the room.
When the women saw Yusuf (AS), they were so amazed by his beauty that they accidentally cut their hands and said, "This is not a human! This must be a noble angel!"
Seeing this, the wife of Al-Aziz openly admitted her feelings and said that if Yusuf (AS) did not obey her, he would be imprisoned.
Yusuf (AS) made a sincere dua to Allah. He said that he would prefer prison over committing a sin.
Allah accepted his dua.
As a result, Yusuf (AS) was sent to prison, even though he was innocent. But this was all part of Allah's plan, a step towards something greater.
Yusuf (AS) remained patient and trusted Allah, knowing that every hardship would lead to ease.,
