Join Mufti Abdul Wahab Waheed as he presents an emotional analysis of the life of Prophet Yusuf (AS) as he drifts through chapters in his life marked with greed, lies, and betrayal.
The story of Prophet Yusuf (AS) is presented in the Qur’an as an exemplary model of endurance through difficulties, acceptance of Divine decree, and perseverance in the way of Allah (SWT).
Surah Yusuf teaches us that the resolve of Dunya is pain, and the essence of faith is the belief that our agony serves a purpose and that we will ultimately reap its benefits in the Akhira.
*Friday, Oct. 25 | 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. | MCC Prayer Hall | RSVP at mcceastbay.org/yusuf | Free; join in person or watch virtually at mcceastbay.org/live
