• Level 1: The objective of this level is to enable you to understand the religious Arabic used in the
routine life.
• Level 2: This level is designed to improve your language skills. You learn basic grammar and enhance

This program is not designed to teach you day-to-day conversation in the Arabic language. This program is
also not designed to teach you how to write in Arabic language. But this program will help you in achieving

objectives. Nevertheless, the program is basically designed to teach you comprehension in the Arabic
language.

Lesson 1B: Attitude of Believers

Have you noted?


• There is a @ at the beginning of words with present tense having a pronoun “he”. For example:
02y
: 87 (He hides),  h+
7 8 (He shapes).
• There is a " at the beginning of words with present tense having a pronoun “you”. For
example: C2y
: F (You hide),  h+
7 F (You shapes).
• There is a E at the beginning of words with present tense having a pronoun “we”. For example:
9
 h2 5 (We differentiate),  h+
7 5 (We shapes).
• There is a 5 at the end of words having a pronoun “our or us”. For example: 75
:+ 5 (Help us),
7&: 7 :  (Be Merciful to us). This word also comes at the end of words in Past Tense. Here it
means “we”. For example: 7&:  > 7 (We listened), 75Y S J: 6 (We committed a mistake).
• In Classical Arabic, direction of a communication changes. Observe these verses:

them has made such claim before, you told me ‘no’. So I say that if anyone had made such claim before,
then I was able to say that this main replicating the claim which was made before.
I asked you whether there was a king in his forefathers, you told me ‘no’. If there was a king in his
forefathers, I was able to say that the man is demanded the country of his father. I asked you have you
ever accused him for telling a lie, you told me ‘no’. I already know that if he does not tell a lie for people,
he will definitely not tell a lie about God.

I asked you whether people of high rank follow him or weak people (are his followers). You told me that
the weaker of them are following him. This is the case of the followers of the prophets. I asked you
whether they are increasing or decreasing. You described that they are increasing. The matter of faith is
like this till it becomes perfect. I asked you did anybody left high religion after entering in it due to
dissatisfaction, you told me ‘no’. The faith is like it when its cheerfulness mixes with the hearts. I asked
you whether he breaks a promise, you told me ‘no’. Like that Prophets never break their promise. I asked
you what he orders. You told me that he commands you to worship Allah and to not associate anything
with Him. He forbids you from worshipping idols. He orders you for prayer, truth and chastity.

Ibn Natur, the governor of Jerusalem and friend of Hercules, the bishop of Syrian Christians, describes
that when Hercules entered Jerusalem, he (came to his court) in the morning with a worried personality.
Some of his council members said to him, “We are founding your personality changed.” Ibn-e-Natur said,
“Hercules was an astrologist. He used to observe starts.” When they asked him, he replied, “I have seen
tonight when I observed starts that the king of circumcised people appeared. So (tell me) who circumcise
in this nation?”

Then he wrote to his friend at Rome. He was like him (Hercules) in the knowledge (of astrology).
Hercules went to Hims. He had not yet left Hims when the letter of his friend arrived. His opinion was in
agreement to Hercules opinion about the appearance of the Prophet  
 that he is the (true)
prophet. Hercules called the chiefs of Rome in his palace at Hims. He ordered to close the doors. Then he
informed them (about it) and said:

“O Romans! In order to (achieve) the success and the true path, and to protect your country, would you
like to pledge your alliance with this prophet?” They ran towards the doors like wild donkeys but they
found them closed. When Hercules saw their hatred, he became hopeless about their faith. He said,
“Return them to me.” Then he said, “I have said my previous words to test your firmness on religion. So I
have seen it.” They prostrated in front of him and became happy with him. This was the latest position of
Hercules.

The Prophet said, “They are for them (the people living at these boundaries) and for the one other than the
residents of these areas who comes to them with an intention to perform Hajj or U’mrah.”
It means that these are the boundaries for the people of these towns and for those who passes through
these boundaries heading towards Makkah for performing Hajj & U’mrah. People of Makkah wear Ihram
for Hajj from the Makkah and for U’mrah, they wear it from the nearest point at the boundary of
Makkah’s Protected Area.

The Method of Walking Around (Ka’aba): He (the person performing Hajj or U’mrah) comes to the
Holy Ka’aba and walks around it seven times starting from the Black Stone. He indicates (with his hands)
towards it (the Black Stone), kisses it (if possible) and says, “In the name of Allah, Allah is the greatest)”.
He walks around Ka’aba until he reaches again to the Black Stone. Then he indicates towards it and kisses
it, if possible. Otherwise he can just indicate by his hand. This is one cycle. Similarly he completes the
remaining cycles. During the “Tawaf”, he remembers Allah, the Exalted, and calls Him. While (walking)
between the Yemeni Corner and (the corner) of the Black Stone, he says: “O our Lord! Give us good
things in this world and good things in the Hereafter and protect us from the punishment of Hellfire.”

There is no special prayer other than this. A Muslim can call for whatever he wants. It is an established
practice during the initial Tawaf to do “Idtiba’a”. It means that he should not veil his right shoulder.
Walking with moving shoulders in the first three cycles is similar to this.

At the morning of 10th day, he performs the Fajr prayer and stays near the Holy Monument and pray from
Allah till he starts his journey. Then he moves towards Mina before the sunrise. There he throws seven
pebbles to the biggest Satanic pillar after sunrise. After that he slaughters (the sacrifice). Then he shaves
(his head) or cuts (his hair). The pilgrim comes out of Ihram after these rituals. This is the first coming out
of Ihram, so everything becomes lawful for him except (the sexual intercourse) with women (i.e. wife).
Then he goes to Makkah and perform the thorough circumambulation (i.e. the circumambulation essential
during Hajj days) and Sa’ee between Safa & Marwah.

killing them is a great blunder. Don’t go near to fornication. Surely it is a shameful deed and an evil way.
Don’t follow (someone blindly) for what you do have knowledge. (Use your ability to listen, observe and
think.) Surely you will be made accountable for all of your abilities to listen, to observe and to think.

The slaves of The Merciful are those who walk on the earth humbly and when arrogant people address
them (to engage them in useless dialogues), they say, “Peace on you” (to get rid of these people.) Those
who spend their nights to prostrate and stand in prayer for their Lord. Those who say, “O our Lord! Avert
the punishment of the hell from us. Surely its punishment is horrible.” Surely it is the worst abode and
dwelling place. Those who, when they spend, are neither extravagant nor stingy. They stand at the middle

Those who do not call any god with Allah, they do not kill any person whose Allah has protected except
in case of a legal right. They do not fornicate. Whoever does so, he will be punished for that sin. On the
Day of Judgment, the punishment will increase multiple time for him and he will stay in it with disgrace.
Except those who repented, believed and performed good deeds, so Allah shall replace their sins with
good deeds. Allah is surely the Most Forgiving, the Merciful. Whoever repented and did good deeds,
surely he has turned to Allah with a good turn.

Your returning place is to Me. If both of them (your parents) argue with you to associate a deity with Me
and you do not have any knowledge about such false god, then don’t follow both of them. Treat them in

Do you know?
At the time of revelation of the Quran, a large number of slave-women were available
in the society who had no rights. Their masters used to cohabitate with them. Islam
provided them rights and declared them the wives of their masters. Ways to their
manumission were introduced. For details, see the book “Abolition of Physical &
Intellectual Slavery in Islam”. http://www.mubashirnazir.org/ER/Slavery/L0018-00-

Rule of the Day! In Arabic, the same word is used for the Present & Future Tense. When the word ‫ن‬ َ َ‫آ‬

He loves those who cleanse themselves.

Don’t make Allah’s (name) a target of your oaths to make an excuse to prevent you from dealing justly,
being God-fearing and making reconciliation among people. Those who take an oath to not perform sex
with their wives, they (the wives) should wait for four months. If they (the husbands) return, then Allah is
the Forgiver, the Merciful. Allah will not make you accountable for senseless oaths but He will make you
accountable for what your hearts have earned. Allah is the Forgiver, the Tolerant. If you are determined
for divorce, then surely Allah is the Listener, the Knowledgeable (and He will make you accountable.)

The divorced women should wait for three menstrual cycles. It is not allowed for them to conceal what
Allah has created in their wombs, if they believe in Allah and the Day of Judgment. Their husbands have
the priority to return them in that period, if they are determined for reform. Women have the rights similar
to the rights (of men) exercised against them according to the established practice of the society, but the
men have a status above them. Allah is the Mighty, the Wise.

The divorce is twice. After that, keeping her according to an established good practice of society or
leaving them in a good manner. It is not allowed for you to take whatever things you have given to them,
except if both of them fear that they will not observe Allah’s limits. If you fear that both of them will not
maintain Allah’s limits, then there is no blame on them if she (the wife) gives a ransom (to get rid of her
husband). These are Allah’s limits. Don’t cross them. Whoever crosses Allah’s limits, they are the
offenders.

If he divorces her then she will not be allowed (for remarriage) with him until she marries another
husband. If he also divorces her, then there is no blame on both of them (the wife and her first husband) to
return back, if both of them think that they will maintain Allah’s limits. These are Allah’s limits, He
explains them for a nation who does not know.

Do you know? In order to tease women, Pre-Islamic Arabs used to swear for not having sex with their
wives. This practice was called Z*84.The Quran closed the door of such oaths. If a person swears for
not having sex with his wife, she will become automatically free after four months.

Do you know? The wisdom behind the instructions of Allah to wait for three months after the divorce
is that both husband and wife have a chance to think deeply about the consequences of their divorce on
their family. There is a high probability that both of them will reverse the process of divorce after
thinking again and again for three months and the family will not be ruined. After the three months, the
divorce will be enforced. In case of first or second divorce, both of them can even re-marry after the
waiting period. Allah wants to maintain the family up to the last extent.

When you divorce women and their term (of three menstrual cycles) reaches, then either keep them in a
right way or leave them in a good manner. Don’t keep them for harming them otherwise you will cross the
limits. Whoever does that, he has offended against himself. Don’t make Allah’s verses a joke. Remember
Allah’s blessings upon you and what He has revealed the Book and the Wisdom on you. He guides you
with it. Be fearful to Allah and know that Allah knows everything.

Do you know?
In the patriarchic society of Pre-Islamic Arabia, there was a practice of divorcing wives and then
canceling the divorce in order to tease them to infinite number of times. In order to protect women, the
Quran limited the number of divorces to two. After the third divorce, the husband has no right to
cancel the divorce.
The law which was revealed to protect women, unfortunately people have started using it against them
and a heinous practice of “Halalah” (temporary marriage) has been invented. According to Islam, the
marriage is a life-time contract. If a couple divorces thrice, they are separated forever. If the woman
marries with another man and then that man divorces her or dies, she has the right to remarry the first
husband, if she wills. There is no concept of a temporary marriage in Islam. The Prophet ,- / 0

declared the person used in a temporary marriage is like a rented bull.
Do you know?
In these verses, a word
$ is coming again and again. It has two meanings: (1) good deeds about
which all human beings agree that they are good e.g. piousness, helping poor, chastity etc. (2)
established practice / law of a society. The Quran has left many things on the society to decide e.g.
how much amount a husband should pay to his wife at the time of marriage? How much he should pay
on monthly basis? How a husband and wife should divide the joint responsibilities of home? It is not
possible to make a universal law about it. Therefore, it is left on the society / government to decide
about it. In these verses, the word has been used in the both meanings.

When you divorce women and their term (of three menstrual cycles) completes, don’t make it difficult for
them to remarry their husbands if they come to an agreement according to the best practices of society.
This is enjoined on everyone who believes in Allah and the Day of Judgment. This is more virtuous and
chaste for you. Allah knows while you don’t know (the wisdom of protecting your family system).

Mothers should breast-feed their children for two complete years. It is for whom who decides to complete
the breast-feeding. It is the responsibility of the father to provide sustenance and dress according to the
best practices of the society. A person will not be made responsible beyond his capacity. A mother will
not be harmed due to her child and a father will also not be harmed for his child. On the heirs (of the
father), there is a responsibility similar to that. If both of them decide with mutual agreement and
consultation to wean, there is no blame on both of them. If you decide to arrange a foster-mother for your
children, then there is no blame on you provided that you pay whatever (remuneration) you decide (for the
foster-mother) according to the practice of society. Fear Allah and know that Allah is observing your
deeds.

If you have divorced them before you have touched them and fixed a dowry for them, then you have to
pay the half of what you have fixed except they (the woman) waives it or the one (usually the guardian of
that woman) in whose hand the wedlock is, agrees to waive the amount. If you waive (pay the full dowry),
then it is nearer to God-fearing attitude. Don’t forget to show kindness to each other. Surely Allah is

and not driving out (of husband’s home). If they go out (by their own to marry another person), there is no

the divorced women, you have to pay reasonable maintenance, it is an obligation on the God-fearing
people. In this way Allah explains His verses for you so that you understand.

Narrated by A’yesha, the mother of believers: Allah’s Apostle offered the prayer in the Mosque one night
and the people followed him. The next night he also offered the prayer and too many people gathered. On
the third and the fourth nights more people gathered, but Allah's Apostle did not come out to them.
In the morning he said, “I saw what you were doing and nothing stopped me from coming to you except
the fear that it (i.e. the additional night prayer) might become obligatory on you.” And that happened in
the month of Ramadan.

Reported by Jabir Ibn A’bdullah that Allah’s Apostle passed by the market, entering from its upper side,
and people were on his side. So he passed by a dead sheep having small ears. He caught it from its ear and
said, “Would anyone of you like (to buy) this for a silver coin?” They said, “We don’t like to buy it for
anything. What will we do with it?” He said, “Do you like to owe it?” They said, “By God! If it was alive,
there is a defect in it because its ears are small. So how we can owe it while it is dead?” He said, “By
God! For Allah, this world is more inferior than it is (inferior) for you.”

Ma’roor Ibn Suwaid said: I saw Abu Dhar Al-Ghafari wearing a cloak, and his slave, too, was wearing a

man and he complained of me to the Prophet . The Prophet asked me, 'Did you abuse him by slighting his
mother?' He added, 'Your slaves are your brethren upon whom Allah has given you authority. So, if one
has one's brethren under one's control, one should feed them with the like of what one eats and clothe
them with the like of what one wears. You should not overburden them with what they cannot bear, and if
you do so, help them (in their hard job)."

Narrated from A’di: A’di took a white and a black thread. He looked at them at some part of night, but
they did not become clear. At the morning he said, “O Allah’s Prophet! I put them under my pillow.” He
said, “Then your pillow is very wide. Black and White Threads are under your pillow.” [The Hadith was
about the Quranic instruction about fasting: “Eat and drink until the white thread (of morning) becomes
distinguishable from the black thread (of night).” In the verse, black and white thread are an allegory for
the night and the morning. A’di understood the verse in its literal meanings and placed a black and white
thread under his pillow. When he told his story to the Prophet   
 , he joked to him, “Then
your pillow is very wide. Black and White Threads are under your pillow.”]

said, ‘yes’, it would have become obligatory on you while you were not able to do that.” Then he said:
“Leave whatever I leave for you. People before you destroyed due to a large number of questions and
disagreements with their prophets. When I instruct you about anything, take it according to your
capabilities. When I forbid you from anything, then leave it.”

While the Prophet was saying something in a gathering, a Bedouin came and asked him, “When would the
Hour (Doomsday) take place?” Allah's Apostle continued his talk, so some people said that Allah's
Apostle had heard the question, but did not like what that Bedouin had asked. Some of them said that
Allah's Apostle had not heard it. When the Prophet finished his speech, he said, “Where is the questioner,
who enquired about the Hour (Doomsday)?” The Bedouin said, “I am here, O Allah's Apostle .” Then the
Prophet said, “When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday).” The Bedouin said, “How will
that be lost?” The Prophet said, “When the power or authority comes in the hands of unfit persons, then
wait for the Hour (Doomsday.)”

Joseph had another brother from his mother, his name was Binyamin. Jacob used to love both of them
intensely. He did not use to love anyone like that. The brothers used to be jealous with Joseph and
Binyamin. They used to be angry and used to say: “Why our father love Joseph and Binyamin more? Why
our father love Joseph and Binyamin while both of them are little and weak. Why does he not love us like
Joseph and Binyamin. We are grown up and powerful. It is a strange matter.”

became much angry and their jealousy increased. One day, the brothers gathered and said, “Kill Joseph or
throw him in a remote land. Then your father will be only for you. His love will be pure for you.” One of
them said, “No, throw him in a well on the way. Some travelers will take him.” All brothers agreed upon

When they agreed on this opinion, they went to Jacob. Jacob used to fear about Joseph a lot. He used to
know that the brothers are envious of him and they don’t like him. Jacob did not use to send Joseph with
the brothers. Joseph used to play with his brother (Binyamin) and did not use to go away. The brothers
used to know that but they determined to do evil.

Jacob did not liked to send Joseph away from him. He feared a lot about Joseph. (He said:) “I fear that a
wolf may eat him while you will be negligent.” They said, “Never, how can a wolf eat him while we are
actively monitoring? How can it eat him and we are powerful young men.” Jacob allowed (them) for
(taking) Joseph.

The brothers were happy a lot because Jacob had allowed for (taking) Joseph. They went to a forest and
threw Joseph in a well at the forest. They did not have mercy upon on the little Joseph. They did not have
mercy upon the great old man Jacob. Joseph was a little child. His heart was small. The well was deep.
They well was dark and Joseph was alone. But Allah provided good news to Joseph and said to him:
“Don’t be grieved and don’t fear. Allah is with you. Soon your condition will change. Soon your brothers
will come to you and you will tell them about what they did.”

When they became free from their matter and threw Joseph in the well, they gathered and said, “What
should we say to our father?” Some of them said, “Our father was saying that he fears that a wolf may eat

night while they were weeping. They said, “O our father! We went for a race and left Joseph near our

They used to say, “This is the god of land, this is the god of sea, this is the god of sustenance and this is
the god of rain.” Joseph used to see all that and laugh. Joseph used to know all that and weep. Joseph
intended to call them towards Allah. Allah decided to make that in the jail. Do people of jail not deserve
an incitement for good? Do people of jail not deserve mercy? Are people of jail not Allah’s salves? Are
people of jail not sons of Adam?

Although Joseph was at jail but he was a free and brave man. Although Joseph had no wealth but he was
very generous and open-handed. Definitely the prophets speak loudly about the truth at each place.
Definitely the prophets improve (the conditions) of their time with generosity. Joseph said in his heart,
“Surely, need has brought these two persons to me. Surely a needy person becomes soft and surrenders
himself. Surely a needy person listens and obeys. If I said something to both of them, they will definitely
listen.” People of Jail listened but Joseph did not hurry.

But he said to both of them, “I shall tell both of you the interpretation of your dream before your food will
be brought to both of you.” So they sat in a satisfied manner. Then Joseph said to both of them, “I know
the interpretation of the dream. That is from what my Lord has taught me, so they became happy and
satisfied. Now Joseph found a free time so he started his sermon.

“But Allah does not give His knowledge to everyone. Surely Allah does not give His knowledge to a
polytheist. Do you know why my Lord has taught me? Because I have left the way of polytheists. I follow
the religion of my forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. We having nothing to associate anything with
Allah.” Joseph added, “This Monotheism is only for us, but it is for all human beings. This is Allah’s
blessing on us and on all human beings but majority of people do not thank (Allah).”

When Joseph became free from his sermon, he told both of them about the interpretation of the dream. He
said, “Regarding one of you, so he will offer drinks to his lord, and regarding the other, he will be
crucified and birds will eat from his head.” He said to the first one, “Discuss me with your lord.” Both
men went out. First one became responsible for drinks for the king while the other was crucified. The
drinks manager forgot to talk about Joseph with the king. Joseph stayed for years in the jail.

The king of Egypt saw an amazing dream. He saw seven fat cows while sleeping. Seven thin cows were
eating these (fat) cows. The king saw seven green and seven dried fruiting spikes. The king wondered

They said, “This is nothing. A sleeping person sees a lot of things which has no reality.” But the Drinks
Manager said, “No, I will tell you the interpretation of this dream. The Drinks Manager went to the jail
and asked Joseph about the interpretation of the dream of the king. Joseph was very generous, open-
handed and benevolent for Allah’s creatures, therefore, he informed about the interpretation. Joseph was
very generous and open handed. He did not know misery. So Joseph informed about the interpretation and
also indicated about the planning (to resolve the issue indicated in the dream.)

He said, “You will grow crops for seven years. Leave whatever you harvest in its fruiting spike except a
small quantity that you eat. After that, there will be a general lack of rain. You will eat in that what you
have stored except a small quantity. This rainlessness will prolong for seven years. After that (Allah’s)
help will come and people will prosper.” The Drinks Manager went and informed the king about the

When the king heard this interpretation and planning, he became very happy. He said, “Who is the
interpreter of this interpretation?” Then the king said, “Who is this noble man who has advised us and also
indicated the solution?” The Drinks Manager said, “This is Joseph, the truthful, he already informed that I
shall become the Drinks Manager for my master, the king.” The king desired to meet Joseph. He sent (a

The messenger of the king told him, “The king is calling you and waiting for you.” His objective was that
this man will walk quickly to the door of the jail and will go out.” But Joseph did not move quickly. He
did not hurry. But he said to the messenger of the king, “I want to investigate. I need an enquiry for my
matter.” The king enquired about Joseph. He knew as well as all people knew that Joseph was innocent.
Joseph came out clean-handed and the king gave him respect.

Joseph used to know that people have less honesty. He used to know that corruption is widespread in the
people. He used to see that people misappropriate the treasures of Allah. He used to see that there are
great treasures in the earth but they were wasted. Surely they were wasted because the leaders do not fear
Allah in this matter.

People who know and who are caretaker of them, eat from it and misappropriate it. Joseph was a careful
and knowledgeable person. Joseph did not want to leave these people to eat public money. Joseph was not
able to see that people are hungry and dying (with hunger). Joseph did not use to hesitate for truth. He said
to the king, “Make me responsible for the treasures of earth. I am a careful and knowledgeable person.”
So Joseph became responsible for the treasury of Egypt. People felt relaxed a lot and thanked to God. In
Egypt and Syria, there was a famine as Joseph informed. People of Syria heard and Jacob also heard that
there is a kind person at Egypt. In Egypt, the administrator of earth’s treasures is a generous and respected
person.

People used to go to him and bring food. Jacob also sent his sons to Egypt with wealth to bring food.
Binyamin left with his father because Jacob used to love him a lot and he did not want to send him away.
Jacob was fearful about him as he used to fear about Joseph. The brothers of Joseph directed towards
Joseph. They did not know that it is their brother Joseph. They did not know because (in their opinion)
Joseph was in the well. They thought that he had died. How did he not die while he was in the well. He
was in the well and the well was deep. The well was in the forest and the forest was lonely. It was at night
time and the night was dark.

knew that these are the ones who threw him in the well. These are the ones who wanted to kill him but
Allah protected him. But Joseph did not say anything to them and did not expose to them. Joseph talked to
them and said, “From where you are coming?” They said, “From Canaan.” He said, “Who is your father?”

not like to send him away from him.” He said, “For what he does not leave him? Is he a very little child?”
They said, “No, but we had another brother named Joseph. Once he went with us. We went for a race and
left Joseph near our luggage. The wolf ate him.”

Joseph laughed in himself but did not say anything. Joseph desired to meet his brother Binyamin. Allah
wanted to test Jacob second time. Joseph ordered to give food to them. He said to them, “Bring you
brother from your father. You will not find any food if you will not bring him.” Joseph instructed (his
staff) to put their price in their luggage.

They returned to their father and gave him the information and said to him, “Send our brother with us
otherwise we will not find any good with A’ziz (Joseph).” They demanded Binyamin from Jacob and said,
“We will protect him.” Jacob said, “Will you protect him like you protected his brother before? Have you
forgot the story of Joseph? Will you protect Binyamin like you protected Joseph? Allah is the Best
Protector. He is the most Merciful in all those who have mercy.”

They found their price in their luggage. They said to their father. “The A’ziz is a generous man. He has
returned our wealth and not taken the price. Send Binyamin with us. We shall take his right too.” Jacob
said to them, “I will definitely not send him with you unless you promise with Allah that you will take
him back except that you are dominated in your matter.” They promised Allah and Jacob said, “Allah is
the Guardian over what you say.” Jacob said to his sons, “O sons! Don’t enter (Egypt) from one door.
Enter from different doors.”

The brothers entered from different doors as instructed by their father and reached to Joseph. When
Joseph saw Binyamin, he became very happy and lodged him in his home. Joseph said to Binyamin, “I am
your brother.” and Binyamin became satisfied. Joseph met Binyamin after a long time. His talked about

Joseph wanted to keep Binyamin with him to meet him every day and talk to him and ask about his home.
But what was the way to do that? Binyamin was returning to Canaan tomorrow. What was the way to do
that while the brothers promised Allah to return him with them?

Without any reason, how was it possible for Joseph to lock up Binyamin with him from returning to
Canaan? Surely it was a great offence. But Joseph was very intelligent and wise person. Joseph had an
expense utensil, he used to drink in it. He put that utensil in the luggage of Binyamin and an announcer
announced, “Surely you are the thieves.” The brothers directed. They said, “What are you lacking?” They
said, “We lack the measuring bowl of the king. Whoever will bring it, we will give him (grains equivalent
to) the weight of a camel.”

The bowl came out of the luggage of Binyamin, so the brothers ashamed but they said without any shame,
“If Binyamin has stolen it, then his brother Joseph has stolen before.” When Joseph heard this false blame,
he remained silent and did not become angry. Joseph was very generous and tolerant. They said, “O
A’ziz! Surely our father is a great old man, so take anyone of us in his place. We see that you are from
righteous people.” He said, “I seek refuge of Allah that we take anyone except the one in whose luggage
we have found our property. Then we will be great offenders.”

In this way Binyamin remained with Joseph and all brothers became happy. Surely Joseph was alone since
a long time. He had not met anyone from his family. Allah had driven Binyamin to him. So why not he
lock him with himself to see and talk. Is it an offence to keep a brother with a brother?

The brothers astonished how to return to their father. Each of the brothers was thinking what to say to
their father? Surely they had afflicted him yesterday about Joseph, today how they afflict him about
Binyamin? Elder of them refused to return to Jacob and said to his brothers, “Return to your father and
say, ‘O father, our brother stole. We have not found any evidence except what we knew and we are not
keeping record of secret things.’”

When Jacob listened this story he knew that Allah has put His Hand in it and Allah is testing him.
Yesterday, He afflicted him about Joseph and today He is afflicting him about Binyamin. Surely Allah
does not gather two afflictions. Surely Allah will not afflict him about two sons. Surely Allah will not
afflict him about two sons like Joseph and Binyamin. Surely Allah had a Secret Hand in this matter.

Surely Allah had a hidden wisdom in it. Surely Allah keep testing His slaves, but then He makes it easy
for them and bless them. Then the elder son also remained in Egypt and refused to return to Canaan. Is He
afflicting about the third one as well while He had afflicted about two before? This is not possible. Now
Jacob became satisfied and said, “I hope Allah will bring all of them to me. Surely He is the
Knowledgeable, the Wise.” But Jacob was a human being, he had a heart in his chest, not a piece of stone.

Jacob used to know that being hopeless is thanklessness. Jacob had a great hope in Allah. Jacob sent his
sons to Egypt to search Joseph and Binyamin and to put effort in it. Jacob forbade them to be hopeless
from Allah’s mercy. The brothers went to Egypt third time. They entered to Joseph and complained about
their poverty and affliction and asked about his generosity. Here grief and love aroused in Joseph and he
was not able to control himself.

you know what you did with Joseph and his brother, are you not aware?” The brothers knew that this is a
secret. Nobody knows it except Joseph and us. So they knew that he is Joseph.

Prime Minister of Egypt? He was the one who instructed us about the food? Now, no doubt remained that
the person they are talking is Joseph, the son of Jacob. They said, “Then definitely you are Joseph.” He
said, “I am Joseph and this is my brother. Allah has blessed us. Surely the one who fears and be patient, so
Allah do not waste the reward of righteous people.”

How did he like drinks and food while his father was not taking drinks, food and sleep. The secret was
disclosed and opened. Allah wanted to give comfort to Jacob’s eyes and Jacob became blind due to
weeping a lot in grief. So Joseph said, “Take my shirt and put it on the face of my father. He will become
sighted. Bring your entire family to me.” When the men traveled to Canaan with the shirt of Joseph, Jacob
felt the smell of Joseph and said:

They said, “O our father! Seek forgiveness for us for our sins. We were the wrong-doers.” He said, “Soon
I will seek forgiveness for you from my Lord. Surely He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.” When Jacob
reached Egypt, Joseph welcomed him. Don’t ask about their happiness and their pleasure. It was a known
day at Egypt and it was a blessed day. Joseph raised his parents to the throne and all of them prostrated for
Joseph.

the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating for me.” Joseph praised Allah at lot with purity. Joseph
thanked a great thank on that. Jacob and his progeny remained in Egypt for a long time. Jacob and his
wife died at Egypt. This great kingdom did not make Joseph busy (to avoid) Allah, it did not change him.
Joseph used to mention Allah and worship Him and fear Him. Joseph used to decree according to Allah’s
decree and used to implement Allah’s instructions.

Joseph did not use to consider the kingdom much and he did not use to consider it a big thing. Joseph did
not use to like to die the death of a king and gathered (on the Day of Judgment) with kings. But Joseph
used to love to die the death of a slave (of Allah) and gathered with pious people.

The prayer of Joseph was: “O Lord! You have given me a share in kingdom and taught me interpretation
of things. You are the Originator of the heavens and the earth. You are the friend in this world and the
hereafter. Cause me to die as a Muslim (submitter to God) and join me with pious people.” Allah caused
him to die as a Muslim and joined him with his forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. May Allah’s
blessings and peace be upon them and on our Prophet.
