14. Patience When Those Closest to You Betray You | Maqamat Series

In the fourth episode of *The Quran for Hearts & Minds: The Power of Maqamat*, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan and Qari Ibraheem Bakeer explore one of the most moving moments in Surah Yusuf ( 12:16 –18). When Prophet Yaqub (AS) is confronted with the false story of his sons and the loss of Yusuf, his response is not anger or rejection, it is “فصبر جميل” (beautiful patience). This is more than resignation. It is a conscious choice to hand over his grief, betrayal and helplessness to Allah, even while knowing the truth behind their words. Qari Ibraheem’s recitation in *Maqam Saba & Ajam* carries the weight of Yaqub’s sorrow and the dignity of his patience. The combination of these maqamat lets us feel the sadness in the verses and the steadiness in his resolve. ------------------------------ 📚 Start your Quran journey at https://www.bayyinahtv.com 🎁 Sponsor a soul who seeks the Quran with a Bayyinah TV membership at https://bayyinah.com/gift
