Surah Yusuf

Recited by Salaah Bukhaatir

Overview

About this Surah

The subject matter of this Surah indicates that it was revealed during the last stage of the Holy Prophet's residence at Makkah, when the Quraish were considering the question of killing or exiling or imprisoning him. At that time some of the unbelievers put this question (probably at the instigation of the Jews) to test him :'Why did the Israelites go to Egypt?'' This question was asked because they knew that their story was not known to the Arabs for there was no mention of it whatever in their traditions and the Holy Prophet had never even referred to it before.

Verses around 12:111

  1. Ayah 108

    قُلْ هَـٰذِهِ سَبِيلِي أَدْعُو إِلَى اللَّهِ ۚ عَلَىٰ بَصِيرَةٍ أَنَا وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَنِي ۖ وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ

    Di: "Éste es mi sendero, tanto yo como quienes me siguen invitamos a adorar a Dios con conocimiento. ¡Glorificado sea Dios! No soy de los que idolatran divinidades junto a Dios".

  2. Ayah 109

    وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ إِلَّا رِجَالًا نُّوحِي إِلَيْهِم مِّنْ أَهْلِ الْقُرَىٰ ۗ أَفَلَمْ يَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ فَيَنظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۗ وَلَدَارُ الْآخِرَةِ خَيْرٌ لِّلَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا ۗ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ

    No he enviado antes de ti sino a hombres que pertenecían a sus propias comunidades para que le transmitieran Mi revelación. ¿Por qué [quienes rechazan este mensaje] no viajan por el mundo y observan cómo fue que acabaron los pueblos de la antigüedad [que desmintieron a los Profetas]? La morada de la otra vida será mejor para quienes tienen temor de Dios. ¿Es que no van a reflexionar?

  3. Ayah 110

    حَتَّىٰ إِذَا اسْتَيْأَسَ الرُّسُلُ وَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُمْ قَدْ كُذِبُوا جَاءَهُمْ نَصْرُنَا فَنُجِّيَ مَن نَّشَاءُ ۖ وَلَا يُرَدُّ بَأْسُنَا عَنِ الْقَوْمِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ

    [Todos los Profetas sufrieron persecución y rechazo] al punto que cuando los Mensajeros se resignaron y tuvieron la certeza de que les desmentirían definitivamente, les llegó Mi auxilio: entonces, todos aquellos a quienes quise [salvar] fueron salvados [y los que rechazaron la verdad fueron destruidos]: pues la gente que se hunde en el pecado no puede escapar de Mi ira.

  4. Ayah 111

    لَقَدْ كَانَ فِي قَصَصِهِمْ عِبْرَةٌ لِّأُولِي الْأَلْبَابِ ۗ مَا كَانَ حَدِيثًا يُفْتَرَىٰ وَلَـٰكِن تَصْدِيقَ الَّذِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَتَفْصِيلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ

    En las historias [de los Profetas] hay un motivo de enseñanza para la gente que reflexiona. [El Corán] no es un relato inventado, sino que es una confirmación de lo ya revelado anteriormente, así como una explicación detallada de todas las cosas, una guía y misericordia para los creyentes.

Meccan Surahs

The Meccan Surahs are the earliest revelations sent down to the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم). They were revealed in Mecca, hence their name. These revelations form the foundation of the Islamic faith and contain guidance for Muslims on how to live their lives. The Meccan Surahs are also notable for their poetic beauty and lyrical prose.

Medinan Surahs

The Medinan Surahs are the later Surahs that, according to Islamic tradition, were revealed in Medina after the Prophet Muhammad's (صلى الله عليه وسلم) hijra from Mecca. They were revealed by Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) when the Muslim community was larger and more developed, as opposed to their minority position in Mecca.
