Qaala rabbis sijnu ahabbu ilaiya mimma yad'oo naneee 'ilaihi wa illaa tasrif 'annee kaidahunna asbu ilaihinna wa akum minal jaahileen

12:33. He said, "My Lord, prison is more to my liking than that to which they invite me. And if You do not avert from me their plan, I might incline toward them and [thus] be of the ignorant."

یوسف نے دعا کی کہ پروردگار جس کام کی طرف یہ مجھے بلاتی ہیں اس کی نسبت مجھے قید پسند ہے۔ اور اگر تو مجھ سے ان کے فریب کو نہ ہٹائے گا تو میں ان کی طرف مائل ہوجاؤں گا اور نادانوں میں داخل ہوجاؤں گا
