Chapter 12: Joseph (Yousuf)

Verse No	Pickthall	Shakir	Yusuf Ali	Arabic
12:23	And she, in whose house he was, asked of him an evil act. She bolted the doors and said: Come! He said: I seek refuge in Allah! Lo! he is my lord, who hath treated me honourably. Lo! wrong-doers never prosper.	And she in whose house he was sought to make himself yield (to her), and she made fast the doors and said: Come forward. He said: I seek Allah's refuge, surely my Lord made good my abode: Surely the unjust do not prosper.	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: "God forbid! truly (thy husband) is my lord! he made my sojourn agreeable! truly to no good come those who do wrong!"	وَرَوَدَتْهُ الَّتِي هُوَ فِي بَيْتِهَا عَنْ نَفْسِهِ وَغَلَّقَتْ الْابْوَبَ وَقَالَتْ هَيْتَ لَكَ قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ اِنَّهُ رَبِّي احْسَنَ مَثْوَايَ اِنَّهُ لَا يُفْلِحُ الظَّلِمُونَ
