Al-Quran English Translation: Surah Number 12: Yûsuf (The Prophet Joseph)52. Yusuf said, 'I have done this because Aziz should know that I betrayed him not behind his back, and Allahallows not the guile of betrayers.53. And I do not hold my soul free from sin' no doubt the soul is wont to command evil but that on whom my Lordhas mercy. No doubt, my Lord is Forgiving' Merciful.54. The King said, bring him to me that I may choose him especially for myself. Then, when he talked to him said'certainly today, you are a man dignified, trusted with us.55. Yusuf said, 'set me over the treasures of earth. No doubt, I am watchful, knowing.56. And thus We gave control to Yusuf over this land wherein he might live wherever he wished. We cause Ourmercy to reach whom We please, and We waste not the reward of the righteous.57. And surely the reward of the Hereafter is better for those who believed and remained duty-bound.58. And the brethren of Yusuf, came, then appeared before him and Yusuf recognised them but they remainedunaware of him.59. And when he got ready their baggage, he said, 'bring your stepbrother to me, do you not see that I give fullmeasure and I am the best host.60. But if you bring him not to me, then there is not measure for you with me and approach me not.61. They said, we shall desire him from his father, and we are certainly to do it.62. And Yusuf said to his servants 'put their capital in their saddlebags, haply they may recognize it when they goback to their home, per-chance they may return.63. Then when they returned to their father, they said, 'O our father, the food-grain has been denied to us, sosend with us our brother that we may bring food-grain and we shall surely safeguard him.64. He said, 'May I trust you about him likewise I trusted you before about his brother.' Then Allah is the bestGuard He is the Most Merciful of the merciful.65. And when they opened their goods, they found their capital returned to them. They said, 'O Our father, nowwhat more should we desire? Here is our capital that has been returned to us, and we shall bring food-grain forour family and we shall guard our brother, and we shall find an extra camel load. This offering is nothingbefore a King.66. He said, 'I will never send him with you, until you give me this solemn pledge of Allah that you will be surelybring him back, but that you may be encompassed' Then when they gave Yaqub solemn pledge, he said, 'Allahis responsible over what we say.'67. And said he, 'O my sons, enter not by one door, but enter you by separate gates. I cannot save you againstAllah All decisions belong to Allah I relied on Him, and let the relying rely on Him.68. And when they entered after the manner their father had commanded, it could not save them against Allah,yes there was a desire in the heart of Yaqub which he fulfilled. And verily, he is the man of knowledge by Ourteaching, but most men know not.69. And they went to Yusuf. He gave his brother a place near himself, he said' 'believe, I am your brother thereforebe not grieved of whatever they do.'70. Then when he made ready their baggage, he put the drinking cup in the saddlebag of his brother. Thereafter aCrier cried. 'O men of Caravan, no doubt. You are thieves.'71. They said, and turned to them, 'what it is that you find not.72. hey said, 'we do not find the king' measuring cup. And whosoever will bring it. He shall have a camel's load andI am his guarantor.73. They said. 'By God, you are well aware that we came not for creating mischief in the land, nor we are thieves.74. They said. 'What is the penalty of him, if you be liars?75. They said, 'its penalty is, that he in whose baggage it is found, be himself the servant in recompense. Thus isthe punishment of the unjust at our place.76. Then first he began the search of their bags before the bag of his brother; then he took it out from the bag ofhis brother. We taught Yusuf thus to plan. He could not take his brother under the King's Law but this thatAllah willed. We exalt in degrees whomsoever We please. And above every man of knowledge there is One ofMore Knowledge.77. The brothers said, 'if he commits theft, then no doubt his brother has already committed theft before, thenYusuf kept this thing secret in his heart and did not disclose it to them. He said within himself, 'you are atworse place, and Allah knows well what you fabricate.78. They said, 'O Aziz, he has a father, aged and advanced in years, so take one of us in his place. No doubt weare seeing your favours.79. He said, 'be refuge of Allah that we should take any other but him with whom we found our goods then weshall surely be unjust.80.

OCreater of heavens and earth, You are my Helper in this world and the Hereafter. Make me die as Muslim andjoin me with those who are worthy to be very close to You.102. These are some tidings of Unseen, which We reveal to you. And you were not with them, when they agreedupon their plan, and they were devising.103. And most men will not believe; though you eagerly desire it.104. And you do not ask any wage for it; it is not but admonition to the whole world.105. And how many a sign there is in the heavens and earth that most men pass by them and are unaware of them.106. And most of them believe not in Allah but as associators.107. Have they become fearless from this that they maybe encompassed by the torment of Allah or the suddencoming of the Hour upon them while they are unaware?108. Say you, 'This is my way; I call towards Allah. I and those who follow my footsteps have insight. And Holy isAllah: and I am not an associators.109. And all those who were sent as messengers before you were men, whom We revealed, and all were residentsof the cities.
