[12].Surah Yusuf [Joseph] : Ayat 89-90


Ayat 89. He said: "Do you know what you did with Yusuf (Joseph){PBUH} and his brother, when you were ignorant?"
Ayat 90. They said: "Are you indeed Yusuf (Joseph){PBUH}?" He said: "I am Yusuf (Joseph){PBUH}, and this is my brother (Benjamin). Allah has indeed been gracious to us. Verily, he who fears Allah with obedience to Him (by abstaining from sins and evil deeds, and by performing righteous good deeds), and is patient, then surely, Allah makes not the reward of the Muhsinun (good-doers) to be lost."   
  
Hazrat Abu Said Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that: Certain people of the Ansar asked the Messenger of Allah  [SAWW](PBUH) and he gave them; then they again asked him and he gave them until all what he possessed was exhausted. Then the Prophet  [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Whatever wealth I have, I will not withhold from you. Whosoever would be chaste and modest; Allah will keep him chaste and modest and whosoever would seek self-sufficiency, Allah will make him self-sufficient; and whosoever would be patient, Allah will give him patience, and no one is granted a gift better and more comprehensive than patience".
[Al-Bukhari Vol 2, Book 24, Hadith # 548]. 

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Yusuf Ayat 90. "Verily, he who fears Allah with obedience to Him, and is patient, then surely," Besides describing generosity, kindness, munificence and nobility of the Prophet  [SAWW](PBUH), he has been ordained by Allah to adopt patience, contentment and self-respect and to avoid anyone's favour.
