﷽
Reflecting on Surah Yusuf (12:22), which says, 'When Yusuf reached maturity, We granted him wisdom and knowledge. This is how We reward those who do good,' I wondered what Prophet Yusuf AS had done by that time, especially since he hadn’t started his public mission or preaching yet.
Upon deeper reflection, I realized that even though Prophet Yusuf AS had not yet started his prophetic mission, his unshakable faith, patience during hardships, a...See more

I like the term 'young adult' much more than the word 'teenager'. The concept of being a teenager seems to creates this expectation of a certain type of behaviour. What we expect from the 'teen' and what the 'teen' expects from themselves is influenced heavily by societal norms.
Did you know the concept of being a teenager didn't even really exist until the 1920's? This is a fascinating article about the invention of the vehicle and how the term...See more

Quran is a book that has infinite lessons for us to benefit from. One of my favourite is Surah Yusuf. The more one ponders over its verses, the more Allah SWT unravels it’s hidden treasures.
Today as I was reading the translation of Surah Yusuf I pondered over the life of Prophet Yusuf (as) and realized the choice of words to describe his character.
He is called Muhsin (doer of good, even when others fail him or ill-treat him)

The first thing I notice is that Allah mentions knowledge separate from wisdom, pointing out the dissconnection between the both.
You may have a lot of knowledge but the way you apply it proves if you have wisdom or not.
Secondly, Alhamdulillah that we have Yusuf (upon him be peace), as a role model. for all those young brothers and sisters, especially living in times where it is the norm to not be chaste.

An Islamic wisdom tells us 'No one experiencing sadness will read Surat Yusuf except that they will find relief'. So why Surat Yusuf ?
Amidst all the trials, heartbreak, lies and struggles, Prophet Yusuf continuously and consistently is described as from the 'muhsineen' (those who embody moral excellence).
His brothers throwing him into a well, his separation from his father for decades, his selling into slavery and his persecution in prison f...See more

No family is immune from complications, Allah will not give you or me a normal family. Wether you like it or not , there is gunna be some body who is trouble. That is just how Allah made us.

İn this captivating narrative, one constant element stands out – the 'qamis' (shirt). Notice how the story revolves around it, ultimately returning to this symbolic garment. Some commentators have aptly titled this surah 'Qassas al-Qamis' (The Story of the Shirt). While much has been said about this tale, I'd like to highlight an aspect that resonates with me.

Surat Yusuf:
This chapter reminds us that hardship come first and it is described through problems that Yusuf had from a young age. He was betrayed by his brother and separated from his dad, dumped in a well and found by slave-merchants, sold as a slave, and he was accused of adultery king's wife.
With all of this hardship one should remember that Yusuf was given a many blessings including physical beauty and special ability to translate dream...See more
