Surah Yusuf, verse 36

Each word opens its meaning.

﴿٣٦﴾

Tap a word for its meaning and pronunciation, then open its page.

Without diacritics

ودخل معه السجن فتيان قال احدهما اني اراني اعصر خمرا وقال الاخر اني اراني احمل فوق راسي خبزا تاكل الطير منه نبئنا بتاويله انا نراك من المحسنين

Now with him there came Into the prison two young men. Said one of them: "I see Myself (in a dream) Pressing wine." Said the other: "I see myself (in a dream) Carrying bread on my head, And birds are eating thereof." "Tell us" (they said) "the truth And meaning thereof: for we See thou art one That doth good (to all)."
