In Episode 40 of The Speaking Quran, we explore one of the most profound moments in the Qur’an — when Prophet Yusuf (Joseph) forgives his brothers, saying:
“No blame upon you today. May Allah forgive you, for He is the Most Merciful of the merciful.”
(Surah Yusuf, 12:92)
Through these verses (91–92), we uncover the essence of ihsan (excellence) — the spiritual state of controlling one’s anger, forgiving others, and responding with kindness.
This episode highlights how Prophet Yusuf’s mercy mirrors divine compassion, and how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ embodied the same spirit at the conquest of Makkah.
