When the Stars Prostrated is a meditative, verse-by-verse journey into the heart of Sūrah Yūsuf. Revealed to Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ in his period of loss and mourning, and lauded by God as aḥsan al-qaṣaṣ, “the best of stories,” Sūrah Yūsuf bears relevance to modern readers of all ages. It is an intimate guide for enduring hardship with patience, hope, and, most importantly, trust in the grand workings of the Divine. But deriving these lessons isn’t an effortless pursuit. Tadabbur, the art of contemplating the meaning of a verse to its end, requires our companionship and sincere engagement with the Qur’ān.
In this collection of short essays, two writers lay bare the pearls they carry from their tadabbur journey. Every passage is a blend of classical exegesis and personal insight to show readers that healing, growth, and spiritual ascension through Sūrat Yūsuf can be anyone’s reality.
