Verses 1–3 of 3
And when they entered In the manner their father Had enjoined, it did not Profit them in the least Against (the Plan of) God: It was but a necessity Of Jacob's soul, which he Discharged. For he was, By Our instruction, full Of knowledge (and experience): But most men know not.
Surah Yusuf, verse 12:68And there are (other) advantages In them for you (besides); That ye may through them Attain to any need (There may be) in your hearts; And on them and on ships Ye are carried.
Surah Ghafir, verse 40:80But those who Before them, had homes (In Medina) And had adopted the Faith,— Show their affection to such As came to them for refuge, And entertain no desire In their hearts for things Given to the (latter), But give them preference Over themselves, even though Poverty was their (own lot). And those saved from The covetousness of their own Souls,—they are the ones That achieve prosperity.
Surah Al-Hashr, verse 59:9
