Allah says, `Mention to your people, O Muhammad, among the stories that you
narrate to them, the story of Yusuf.' Prophet Yusuf (Joseph) mentioned his dream
to his father, Prophet Ya`qub (Jacob), son of Prophet Ishaq (Isaac), son of
Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham), peace be upon them all. `Abdullah bin `Abbas stated
that the dreams of Prophets are revelations from Allah. Scholars of Tafsir
explained that in Yusuf's dream the eleven stars represent his brothers, who
were eleven, and the sun and the moon represent his father and mother. This
explanation was collected from Ibn `Abbas, Ad-Dahhak, Qatadah, Sufyan Ath-Thawri
and `Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam. Yusuf's vision became a reality forty
years later, or as some say, eighty years, when Yusuf raised his parents to the
throne while his brothers were before him,
[وَخَرُّواْ لَهُ
سُجَّدَا وَقَالَ يأَبَتِ هَـذَا تَأْوِيلُ رُؤْيَـى مِن قَبْلُ قَدْ جَعَلَهَا
رَبِّى حَقًّا]
(and they fell down before him prostrate. And he said: "O my father! This is
the interpretation of my dream aforetime! My Lord has made it come true!'')
[قَالَ يبُنَىَّ لاَ
تَقْصُصْ رُءْيَاكَ عَلَى إِخْوَتِكَ فَيَكِيدُواْ لَكَ كَيْدًا إِنَّ الشَّيْطَـنَ
لِلإِنْسَـنِ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ ]
(5. He (the father) said: "O my son! Relate not your vision to your brothers,
lest they should arrange a plot against you. Verily, Shaytan is to man an open
enemy!'')
