He was well built and handsome. After some time the wife of his master began to desire him, and one day she said to him, “Have sex with me.”
But he is a prudent man, upright and fears the Lord, he refused and said to her, “My master trusts me with everything in his house. He has put me in charge of everything he owns. There is no one in his house greater than I. he has not kept anything from me except you because you are his wife. How can I do such an evil thing? It is a sin against God.”
The woman talked to him every day, pleaded, but he refused to have sexual relations with her or even spend time with her.
One day he went into the house to do his work as usual and was the only man in the house at that time. His master’s wife grabbed his coat and said to him, “Come and have sex with me.” But he left his coat in her hand and ran out of the house, naked.
When she saw that he had left his coat in her hands and had run outside, she called to the servants in her house and said, “Look! This man slave was brought here to shame us. He came in and tried to have sex with me, but I screamed. My scream scared him and he ran away, but he left his coat with me.”
She kept his coat until her husband came home, and she told him the same story. She said, “This man slave you brought here came in to shame me! When he came near me, I screamed. He ran away, but he left his coat.”
When the master heard what his wife said he had done, he became very angry. So, the master arrested him and put him into the prison where the king’s prisoners were put. And man stayed there in the prison.
But the Lord was with him and showed him kindness and caused the prison warden to like him. The prison warden chose him to take care of all the prisoners, and he was responsible for whatever was done in the prison. The warden paid no attention to anything that was in his care because the Lord was with him and made him successful in everything he did.

A typical Muslim boy who is submissive enough to his parents, will go to the mosque every afternoon holding his Quran to studying what was written. Btw, if not mistaken, it’s part of the curriculum. That explains why.
It's the story of Yusuf. Yes, we are familiar with it.
Hello, Sir Dara! Yusuf...ah yeah, yeah. I'm sure you know the story. :)
Ang kagandahan ng mga tao. Women are always crazy about handsome men. Prophet Yusuf, (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) met the same fate with the wife of the governor of Egypt. Thanks, for sharing!
Hahahahaha! Rahul, you made me laughed. :D..You love your job more than anything, oh yeah! I will respect that. I hope when reality bites you, you will stay firm and courageous to run out of woman's sight. Thanks for answering. :)
