" If we look back at history, we will find many examples of positive outcomes after periods of isolation. Let us go back to the year 1665 where a great plague befell the city of London. A dashing young man, by the name of Isaac Newton, was sent home when the university where he had enrolled to study the natural sciences, Cambridge University, shut down. And what, you wonder, did this young man do with all of that spare time? Why, of course, he came across his wonderful theory of gravity and launched his scientific career that would forever change the course of human history. "

Islam4mankind is delighted to invite all of us to ponder the following:
The Quran relates to us stories of prophets in order to ponder and derive lessons from them "Indeed in their stories, there is a lesson for men of understanding."
Saurat Yussef is from the best of stories because of what it relates from the varying phases of life; from trial to tribulation, from being tested to being blessed, from humiliation to grandeur, from slavery to kingship, from division to unity, from grief to joy, from famine to abundance of sustenance, from hardship to ease, and from denial to affirmation. So blessed be the One who revealed it in the best manner possible.
Let us now ponder these miracles :
The Red Sea didn’t drown prophet Moses , the fire didn’t burn prophet Ibrahim , Yussef's (Joseph) brothers planned for his destruction out of jealousy-he was sold into slavery only to become King, the knife didn’t kill prophet Ibrahim’s son Ismael (Ishmael). People planned to kill prophet Muhammad, Allah saved him.
They plan and Allah plans and Allah is the best of planners.
Never lose hope, trust Allah.
