And the one who bought him from Egypt said to his wife, "Make his stay graceful. He may be useful for us. Or, we may adopt him as a son." And thus We established Yusuf in the land, so that We should teach him the interpretation of events. And Allah is powerful in (enforcing) His command, but most of the people do not know.

And when he reached the prime of his age, We gave him wisdom and knowledge, and this is how We reward those good in deeds.

And she, in whose house he was, seduced him away from his (resisting) self and bolted the doors, and said, "come on!" He said, "May Allah save me. Surely, he is my master. He has given me a good lodging. Surely, the wrongdoers do not prosper."

And she certainly desired him. And he had desired her - had he not seen the proof from his Lord (he could have indulged). This We did to turn away from him evil and lewdness. Surely, he is among Our chosen slaves.

And they raced towards the door, and she tore his shirt from behind, and they found her master by the door. She said, "What can be the punishment of the one who intended evil with your wife except that he be imprisoned or (given) a painful chastisement?"

He said, "It was she who sought to seduce me." And a witness from her family observed that if his shirt was torn up from the front side, then she is true and he is a liar;

and if his shirt was torn up from behind, then she is telling a lie and he is truthful.

So, when he saw his shirt torn up from behind, he said, "This is certainly a guile of yours, 0 women. Great is the guile of you women indeed.

0 Yusuf (علیہ السلام) ، ignore this mat-ter, and you (0 woman) seek forgiveness for your sin. Surely, you were of the sinners."

And women in the city said, "The wife of the governor is seducing her youthful slave. The love for him has arrested her. Surely, we see her in open error."
