Yusuf (Alaihis Salaam) Seeking Refuge with Allah from the Seducing Woman

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Allah Ta’ala narrated the story of Yusuf (Alaihis Salam) that the woman tried to seduce him and he exclaimed:

مَعاذَ اللّٰهِ إِنَّه رَبِّي أَحْسَنَ مَثْوايَ

May Allah forbid! Verily He is my Rabb Who has given me a good place to stay. [Surah Yusuf, 232]

Allah Ta’ala thus conferred him with two gifts of honour; evil and immorality being turned away from him, as Allah Ta’ala says:

“…so that we avert from him evil and immorality.”

(Mafaateehul Ghayb)
