📖 1 min readعن ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «الكَريمُ، ابنُ الكَريمِ، ابنِ الكَريمِ، ابنِ الكَريمِ يوسفُ بنُ يعقوبَ بنِ إسحاقَ بنِ إبراهيمَ -عليهم السلام-».
Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The honorable son of the honorable son of the honorable son of the honorable, is Yūsuf, the son of Ya‘qūb, the son of Is'hāq, the son of Ibrahīm (peace be upon all of them)."
The honorable one is the one who combined honorable manners with the high rank of prophet-hood and being the son of three successive prophets. Along with these merits, he also was conferred the honor of dream interpretation and in authority he managed the affairs of people in a praiseworthy and a beautiful manner. This person was the Prophet, Yūsuf, the son of Ya‘qūb, the son of Is'hāq, the son of Ibrahīm (peace be upon all of them).
