SURA YUSUF
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

Alif Lam Ra. These are the Symbols (or Verses) of the Perspicuous Book.
We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur'an, in order that ye may learn wisdom.
We do relate unto thee the most beautiful of stories, in that We reveal to thee this (portion of the) Qur'an: Before this, thou too wast among those who knew it not.
Behold, Joseph said to his father: "O my father! I did see eleven stars and the sun and the moon: I saw them prostrate themselves to me!"
Said (the father): "My (dear) little son! relate not thy vision to thy brothers, lest they concoct a plot against thee: For Satan is to man an avowed enemy!
"Thus will thy Lord choose thee and teach thee the interpretation of stories (and events) and perfect His favor to thee and to the posterity of Jacob -- even as He perfected it to thy fathers Abraham and Isaac aforetime! For Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom."
Verily in Joseph and his brethren are Signs (or Symbols) for Seekers (after Truth).
They said: "Truly Joseph and his brother are loved more by our father than we: But we are a goodly body! Really our father is obviously wandering (in his mind)!
"Slay ye Joseph or cast him out to some (unknown) land, that so the favor of your father may be given to you alone: (There will be time enough) for you to be righteous after that!"
Said one of them: "Slay not Joseph, but if ye must do something, throw him down to the bottom of the well: He will be picked up by some caravan of travellers."
They said: "O our father! why dost thou not trust us with Joseph, -- seeing we are indeed his sincere well-wishers?
"Send him with us tomorrow to enjoy himself and play, and we shall take every care of him."
(Jacob) said: "Really it saddens me that ye should take him away: I fear lest the wolf should devour him while ye attend not to him."
They said: "If the wolf were to devour him while we are (so large) a party, then should we indeed (first) have perished ourselves!"
So they did take him away, and they all agreed to throw him down to the bottom of the well: And We put into his heart (this Message): "Of a surety thou shalt (one day) tell them the truth of this their affair while they know (thee) not."
Then they came to their father in the early part of the night, weeping.
They said: "Oh our father! we went racing with one another, and left Joseph with our things: And the wolf devoured him... But thou wilt never believe us even though we tell the truth."
They stained his shirt with false blood. He said: "Nay, but your minds have made up a tale (that may pass) with you. (For me) patience is most fitting: Against that which ye assert, it is Allah (alone) whose help can be sought"...
Then there came a caravan of travellers: They sent their water-carrier (for water), and he let down his bucket (into the well)... He said: "Ah there! Good news! Here is a (fine) young man! So they concealed him as a treasure! But Allah knoweth well all that they do!
The (Brethren) sold him for a miserable price, for a few dirhams counted out: In such low estimation did they hold him!
The man in Egypt who bought him, said to his wife: "Make his stay (among us) honorable: Maybe he will bring us much good, or we shall adopt him as a son." Thus did we establish Joseph in the land, that We might teach him the interpretation of stories (and events). And Allah hath full power and control over His affairs; but most among mankind know it not.
When Joseph attained his full manhood, We gave him power and knowledge: Thus do We reward those who do right.
But she, in whose house he was, sought to seduce him from his (true) self: She fastened the doors and said: "Now come, thou (dear one)!" He said: "Allah forbid! truly (thy husband) is my lord! He made my sojourn agreeable! Truly to no good come those who do wrong!"
And (with passion) did she desire him, and he would have desired her, but that he saw the evidence of his Lord: Thus (did We order) that We might turn away from him (all) evil and shameful deeds: For he was one of Our servants, sincere and purified.
So they both raced each other to the door, and she tore his shirt from the back: They both found her lord near the door. She said: "What is the (fitting) punishment for one who formed an evil design against thy wife, but prison or a grievous chastisement?"
