The Story of Yusuf -peace be upon him- from Quranic quotation to literary creativity (between the texts of Al-Jami and Tadros and a theatrical text by Ahmed Bahjat published for the first time)

The story of Yusuf, peace be upon him, greatly influenced Arabic writers and Eastern ones, from the Persians and the Turks. They began to weave imaginative poetic, anecdotal and theatrical creations derived from the Qur’anic story, using in this creative weaving the interpretations of the authentic narrations at one time, and the likes from Israelis at other times.

This research is a comparative study between Abd al-Rahman al-Jami's "Yusuf and Zulaikha" as a representative of Persian literature on the one hand, and Tadras Wahbi's "The Title of Conciliation in the Story of Yusuf Al-Siddiq", and Ahmed Bahjat's "Yusuf, Peace Be upon Him" as representatives of modern and contemporary Egyptian literature on the other hand. Because Al-Jami's poem was purely concerned with Yusuf's relationship with Zulaikha, the evidence for comparison will be based on the two scenes of courtship and the meeting of Aziz with Yusuf at the door while he was fleeing from his wife, as they are the two scenes that led Yusuf, peace be upon him, to prison, and as being among the most tragic scenes in the dramatic story.

According to the chronological sequence, the study starts from Al-Jami’s poem, and a comparison of what it includes with Tadros and Bahgat's plays. The research consists of an introduction, the first topic entitled "Al-Jami and Sufism of Poetic Composition", the second topic entitled "Tadras and Literary Theatrical Composition, thirdly "Bahgat and the Dramatization of the Qur’anic Composition ", and finally a conclusion that includes the most prominent results.
