· 17 Dhuʻl-Qiʻdah 1436 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

One question that I have is they say that prophet Yusuf peace be upon him has been given half of all beauty. It's in Sahih Muslim. I think now some people say that half of the beauty of earth and some people say half of the beauty of all humans. Can you please explain this and they also say that Insha Allah in jannah we will look like prophet Yusuf peace be upon him.

Answer

We understand it to be half of worldly beauty.

It is possible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
