8. Characteristics of Sayyiduna Yusuf عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام

Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has granted Sayyiduna Yusuf عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام exquisite beauty and elegance whereas the majestic and magnificent beauty bestowed upon the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has not been granted to anybody else. Sayyiduna Yusuf عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام was blessed with half of the beauty but the beauty of Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was complete. (Al-Khasaais-ul-Kubra, vol. 2, pp. 315)

 

حُسنِ یوسُف پہ کٹیں مِصر میں اَنگُشت زَناں

سَر کٹاتے ہیں ترے نام پہ مردانِ عرب

 

Explanation of the couplet: Upon seeing beauty of Sayyiduna Yusuf عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام, the women of Egypt, spontaneously cut off their fingers whereas just on the name of Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, the young Arab people have been sacrificing their lives and will continue until the Day of Judgement.

9. Characteristics of Sayyiduna Ayyub عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام

Sayyiduna Ayyub عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام was incredibly patient whereas the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم showed patience and forbearance many times. It means that the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم practiced great patience.

10. Characteristics of Sayyiduna Musa عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام

Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ blessed Sayyiduna Musa عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام with ‘یَدِ بَیْضَا’ (with a bright hand) whereas the seal Nubuwwah (Prophethood) of the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was on his blessed back. Apart from this, the Noble Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was entirely Noor. If he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم had not been in the form of Bashariyyat (i.e. a human form), no one would have been able to see his majestic beauty.

 

اِک جھلک دیکھنے کی تاب نہیں عالم کو

وہ اگر جلوہ کریں کون تماشائی ہو
