Reading Time: < 1 minute

Muhammad Ibne Ali Babvieh has reported on the authority of Imam Sadeq (AS):    “Zoleikha said: Praise is due to God who makes kings slave because of their sins and kings slaves as a result of their devotion.   Yusuf (AS) said: O Zoleikha! What prompted you to do so?  Zoleikha said: The beauty of your face, O Yusuf!   Yusuf said: So what will you do if you see the last prophet, whose name is Muhammad (SAW) and he is more beautiful, more good tempered and more generous than I am?   Zoleikha said: You are right, Yusuf said: how do you know that I am telling the truth?   Zoleikha said: As soon as you mentioned his name, his love was placed in my heart.  Here God inspired Yusuf that Zoleikha tells the truth and since he loves Muhammad I love her too.  Then God ordered Yusuf to marry Zoleikha.
