Tradition 13
Prophet Yusuf

 

We then went up into the third heaven. It was there that I saw a man who had more excellence and virtues than anyone else I had seen. He was a person who was glowing just like the moon on the 10 of a month.

 

I asked Jibra'il, "Who is he?" He replied, "This is your brother Yusuf" I greeted him and prayed for his forgiveness. He returned my greeting and prayed for my mercy and said, "Welcome O' my brother, O' Prophet with exemplary morals who has been sent down at a good and appropriate time." At this place, there were also Angels present who in all humility, were prostrating and busy in the remembrance of Allah . I was introduced to them and just like the other Angels they too treated me with great respect.
