Tell Me About The Prophet Yusuf

by Saniyasnain Khan

Description from the publisher : This book tells the Prophet Yusuf (or Joseph) and his brothers. It starts in Yusuf’s early childhood when his family used to live in tents in the desert, then moves on to the time when he was almost grown up and his brothers threw him into a dry well. It describes how this horrific incident comes as a blessing in disguise, for the young Yusuf was taken to Egypt by a caravan and ultimately made a powerful and trusted minister of the Egyptian king. He was also made a prophet by Allah.

Even though this book is aimed at children, it is detailed enough to be engaging for all adults. The life of Prophet Yusuf عَلَیهِ‌السَّلام holds so many lessons for us to learn and benefit from.

So today I just decided that I was going to do a review on one of the books I've read...this was AWESOME. Taught me lots of things I never knew about Nabi Yusuf AS before, helped me with a project, made me understand the life of Nabi Yusuf AS etc. We have four books in our household but we can't find the story of Nabi Sulayman AS. Never mind that, this was one of my favourite books.
