Yusuf 33 — Protection from Temptation:
رَبِّ السِّجْنُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا يَدْعُونَنِي إِلَيْهِ وَإِلَّا تَصْرِفْ عَنِّي كَيْدَهُنَّ أَصْبُ إِلَيْهِنَّ وَأَكُنْ مِنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ
Yusuf 101 — Dying as a Muslim:
رَبِّ قَدْ آتَيْتَنِي مِنَ الْمُلْكِ وَعَلَّمْتَنِي مِنْ تَأْوِيلِ الْأَحَادِيثِ ﴿﴾ فَاطِرَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ أَنْتَ وَلِيِّي فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ ﴿﴾ تَوَفَّنِي مُسْلِمًا وَأَلْحِقْنِي بِالصَّالِحِينَ
Yusuf 33: Rabbi s-sijnu aḥabbu ilayya mimmā yadʿūnanī ilayh. Wa-illā taṣrif ʿannī kaydahunna aṣbu ilayhinna wa-akun mina l-jāhilīn.
Yusuf 101: Rabbi qad ātaytanī mina l-mulki wa-ʿallamtanī min taʾwīli l-aḥādīth. Fāṭira s-samāwāti wa-l-arḍ. Anta waliyyī fi d-dunyā wa-l-ākhirah. Tawaffanī musliman wa-alḥiqnī bi-ṣ-ṣāliḥīn.
Yusuf 33: O my Lord! Prison is dearer to me than that to which they invite me. If You do not turn their scheming away from me, I will incline toward them and become one of the ignorant.
Yusuf 101: My Lord! You have given me a share of dominion and taught me the interpretation of dreams. O Creator of the heavens and the earth! You are my protector in this world and in the Hereafter. Cause me to die as a Muslim and join me with the righteous.
Source: Yusuf 33, 101 (verses of the Noble Qur'an).
These are the two important duas of Yusuf (peace be upon him) that appear in the Qur'an. The first is a plea to escape temptation, the second a prayer to die upon faith.
Yusuf (peace be upon him) was the son of Ya'qub. The Qur'an says, "Certainly in Yusuf and his brothers there are lessons for those who ask" (Yusuf 7), and his story is called ahsan al-qasas (the most beautiful of stories). Yusuf was given extraordinary beauty and the ability to interpret dreams.
The first dua (Yusuf 33) is the dua Yusuf made against the temptation of the wife of the Aziz of Egypt and of the other women. He was a young, handsome, foreign slave, yet he chose prison in order to guard his chastity. His words "Prison is dearer to me" are the finest example of the stand that must be taken in the face of temptation.
The second dua (Yusuf 101) is the dua of thanksgiving Yusuf made after he rose to power in Egypt and was reunited with his family. That he said "Cause me to die as a Muslim" while he possessed every means shows the transience of this world and that what matters is to die upon faith. The request "join me with the righteous" is the desire to be with the good servants of Allah in the Hereafter.
My Lord! Protect me from every temptation, sin and evil. Keep me far from what is forbidden and grant me steadfastness in what is lawful. Be my protector in this world and in the Hereafter. Cause me to die as a Muslim. Join me with Your righteous servants. Let me die upon faith and raise me with the people of faith, O Lord. Amin.
