And he (the man) from Egypt who bought him, said to his wife: "Make his stay comfortable, may be he will profit us or we shall adopt him as a son." Thus did We establish Yusuf (Joseph) in the land, that We might teach him the interpretation of events. And Allah has full power and control over His Affairs, but most of men know not. 21 And when he reached maturity, We bestowed on him judgment and knowledge.

Verily, the Zalimun (wrong and evil-doers) will never be successful." 23 But the woman desired him, and he would have desired her but for the indication he received from his Lord.

And a witness of her own folk testified: If his shirt is torn from before, then she speaketh truth and he is of the liars. 26 But if his shirt is torn from behind, then she has lied, and he is truthful." 27 So when the governor saw his shirt torn from behind, he said, “Indeed this is a deception of women; undoubtedly the deception of women is very great.” 28 Joseph, turn away from this. And you, ask forgiveness for your sin. You are indeed one of the sinners' 29
