Was the position of our master Yusuf after his release from prison that of Aziz of Egypt?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Upon his release from prison, Prophet Yusuf (عليه السلام) requested the king of Egypt to appoint him over "the treasuries of the earth," because he recognized his ability to manage the affairs and interests of the people. This was also for the benefit of the people. The king granted his request, and Yusuf (عليه السلام) later became "the عزيز (Al-Aziz) of Egypt."
