PROPHET YUSUF (AS) IS GIVEN
POWER AND INFLUENCE

After the ruler had learned the truth a new period began for
Prophet Yusuf (as). The ruler told his men to bring Yusuf (as) to him,
and when he arrived he gave him an important position at his side,

making him a trusted advisor. This is related as follows in the Qur’an:
