The Holy Quran 12:100 — Surah Yusuf

Arabic text

وَرَفَعَ أَبَوَيْهِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ وَخَرُّوا۟ لَهُۥ سُجَّدًا ۖ وَقَالَ يَـٰٓأَبَتِ هَـٰذَا تَأْوِيلُ رُءْيَـٰىَ مِن قَبْلُ قَدْ جَعَلَهَا رَبِّى حَقًّا ۖ وَقَدْ أَحْسَنَ بِىٓ إِذْ أَخْرَجَنِى مِنَ ٱلسِّجْنِ وَجَآءَ بِكُم مِّنَ ٱلْبَدْوِ مِنۢ بَعْدِ أَن نَّزَغَ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَ إِخْوَتِىٓ ۚ إِنَّ رَبِّى لَطِيفٌ لِّمَا يَشَآءُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ

Translation

He seated his parents on a (high) throne and they all (his parents and brothers) bowed down before him (this form of showing respect was allowed in those times but is Haraam in our Shari'ah). He said, "O my beloved father! This is the (realisation of the) interpretation of my past dream. Allaah has surely made it come true. He had truly been kind to me when He removed me from the prison and brought you from the countryside (of Can'aan) after Shaytaan had caused trouble between my brothers and me. Verily my Rabb subtly (deeply) plans what He wills. Verily He is All Knowing, The Wise." (The family then lived in Egypt, where Ya'qoob عليه الصلاة والسلام passed away.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

وأجْلَسَ أباه وأمه على سرير ملكه بجانبه; إكرامًا لهما، وحيَّاه أبواه وإخوته الأحد عشر بالسجود له تحية وتكريمًا، لا عبادة وخضوعًا، وكان ذلك جائزًا في شريعتهم، وقد حَرُم في شريعتنا; سدًا لذريعة الشرك بالله.
