He Ran for the Door — And Allah Opened His Destiny (#surahyousuf22to25

 Tafseer Ibn Kathir (Detailed Explanation):

According to Tafseer Ibn Kathir:

Verse 22:
When Yusuf (A.S.) reached adulthood (around 30 years), Allah granted him wisdom (Hukm) and knowledge (Ilm).
Ibn Kathir explains that “Hukm” refers to the ability to judge between right and wrong — like a prophet’s wisdom.
This was the first stage of his Nubuwwat (Prophethood).

Verse 23:
Ibn Kathir narrates that the wife of Al-Aziz (named Zulaikha in most reports) became infatuated with Yusuf’s beauty.
She locked all doors and tried to seduce him.
Yusuf’s answer “Ma‘adh Allah!” shows his deep faith and gratitude toward Allah and his master.
He reminds himself that Allah has blessed him — how could he betray that trust?
Lesson: The fear of Allah and remembrance of His favors is the best protection from sin.

Verse 24:
Ibn Kathir mentions that Yusuf (A.S.) saw a Burhan (proof) from Allah — possibly a vision of his father Ya‘qub (A.S.) warning him, or a divine reminder of Allah’s watchfulness.
This sight stopped him immediately.
Allah says, “Thus We turned him away from evil and shameful acts.”
Meaning, Allah Himself protected Yusuf because of his sincerity.
He was one of the Mukhlaseen (pure-hearted servants).

Verse 25:
When Yusuf ran toward the door, Zulaikha chased him.
In the struggle, his shirt was torn from behind — proving later that he was innocent.
Ibn Kathir highlights that Allah allowed this moment so that the truth would later be revealed by this torn shirt.
It was divine justice in motion — even in false accusation, Allah protects His chosen servants.
