Story of Prophet Yusuf (AS) Part-11

The Dream
That night the exciting events of the story
which took place thousands of years before
started.
Yousif was nine years old. He was a
handsome boy. Light shone from his eyes. His
heart was full of purity.
His handsomeness glittered in his face and
his eyes which shined with purity.
For this reason his father loved him very
much.
Prophet Ya'qub thought that Yousif would be
a Prophet. He firmly believed that Allah would
choose Yousif a Prophet after him.
Yousif was not only handsome in his face but
also in his soul, morals, and qualities.
When someone saw Yousif, he felt that he was
before the angel who came down from the sky.
So all the people loved him.
His father Ya'qub loved him more than
anybody. Yousif was as pure as dew drops.
His eyes were as clear as the sky. His face
was as bright as the stars.
For this reason his ten brothers envied him.
First they envied him, and then they bore
malice against him. Then they wished death
on him. Perhaps they planned to get rid of
him.
That night Yousif closed his eyes. He was
heedless of his brothers plots.
Yousif'saw a wonderful dream. He saw eleven
stars. He saw the sun and the moon. He saw
them all prostrating to him.
The sight was wonderful. It astonished the
onlooker. Yousif thought that those stars and
the sun and the moon had feelings, so they
came to prostrate to him.
The matter was wonderful. Yousif was
astonished. He thought that those heavenly
bodies smiled at him and glorified him.
The dream enlightened his heart. It shook his
feelings. He woke. However, the dream was
still controlling his feelings.
His heart, chest, and entity were full of that
dream. The pictures of the stars, the sun, and
the moon were still in his mind, as if they
were before his eyes.
The dream shook his feelings, for he did not
know how to explain it. He was bewildered,
not knowing how to explain it. Thus, he came
to his father and said: "O my father, surely I
saw eleven stars and the sun and the moon. I
saw them prostrating to me."
"Father, I saw them coming together, and then
they prostrated to me. I felt that the stars
understood what they did. I felt that they
smiled at me, and then they prostrated to me
humbly."
Prophet Ya'qub listened carefully to Yousif's
dream. He understood that Yousif would be of
great importance in the future.
Thus, he said to his son kindly: "O my son, do
not relate your vision to your brother, lest they
plot against you. Surely Satan is an open
enemy to man."
He added: "My little son, don't tell your
brother about this wonderful dream; they'll
envy you. Perhaps Satan whispers in their
ears.
"Yousif, Allah, the Glorified, will choose you to
announce His message. My son, Allah will
bless you as He had your grandfathers before.
He will bless you as he had blessed Ibrahim,
Ishaq, and Ya'qub's family."
