The name Yūsuf (Joseph) is mentioned twenty-seven times in the Qur'an, and is the title of the twelfth [[sura]]. The Qur'an introduces Joseph (a) as one of the “purified servants of God”. According to [['Allamah Tabataba'i]], this means that not only Joseph (a) refused to have a sinful relationship with Zulaykha but that he was not even inclined to that. Joseph (a) is also considered a “good-doer” in the Qur'an. | The name Yūsuf (Joseph) is mentioned twenty-seven times in the Qur'an,<ref>Ja'farī, ''Nāmhā-yi payāmbarān dar Qur'ān'', p. 25-26.</ref> and is the title of the twelfth [[sura]].
