Yusuf 12:6

Qur'an 12:6

وَكَذَٰلِكَ يَجْتَبِيكَ رَبُّكَ وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِن تَأْوِيلِ ٱلْأَحَادِيثِ وَيُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَهُۥ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰٓ ءَالِ يَعْقُوبَ كَمَآ أَتَمَّهَا عَلَىٰٓ أَبَوَيْكَ مِن قَبْلُ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسْحَـٰقَ ۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ

“And thus will your Lord choose you and teach you the interpretation of narratives [i.e., events or dreams] and complete His favor upon you and upon the family of Jacob, as He completed it upon your fathers before, Abraham and Isaac. Indeed, your Lord is Knowing and Wise."”

Yusuf 12:6 · Saheeh International

Svenska · Bernström

Just så [som du har sett i drömmen] skall du bli en av din Herres utvalda och Han skall skänka dig en djupare förståelse av innebörden i det som sker och ge dig och hela Jakobs hus Sin välsignelse i fullaste mått, liksom Han en gång gav dina förfäder Abraham och Isak [Sin fulla välsignelse]. Din Herre är allvetande, vis."

Recited by Mishary Alafasy. Plays on through the surah.

Interpretation of Yusuf's Vision

Allah says that Ya`qub said to his son Yusuf, `Just as Allah chose you to see the eleven stars, the sun and the moon prostrate before you in a vision,

وَكَذلِكَ يَجْتَبِيكَ رَبُّكَ

(Thus will your Lord choose you) designate and assign you to be a Prophet from Him,

وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِن تَأْوِيلِ الاٌّحَادِيثِ

(and teach you the interpretation of Ahadith).' Mujahid and several other scholars said that this part of the Ayah is in reference to the interpreting of dreams. He said next,

وَيُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَيْكَ

(and perfect His favor on you), `by His Message and revelation to you.' This is why Ya`qub said afterwards,

كَمَآ أَتَمَّهَآ عَلَى أَبَوَيْكَ مِن قَبْلُ إِبْرَهِيمَ

(as He perfected it aforetime on your fathers, Ibrahim...), Allah's intimate friend,

وَإِسْحَـقَ

(and Ishaq), Ibrahim's son,

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ

(Verily, your Lord is All-Knowing, All-Wise.) Allah knows best whom to chose for His Messages.
