As their caravan was leaving Egypt, Ya'qub (alayhis salam), still at
home, smelled the perfume of Prophet Yusuf(alayhis salam), but his
household said he was getting senile. When the caravan arrived home
with the shirt, Ya'qub's (alayhis salam) sight was restored. Then the
entire family moved to Egypt. Prophet Yusuf (alayhis salam) raised his
parents up on the throne to sit with him and they all bowed down in
obedience to him. In this way, Prophet Yusuf's (alayhis salam)
childhoodvision of the eleven planets and the sun and the moon
prostrating themselves before him came true. This is how the
Israelites came to settle in Egypt and lived there for many
generations. The entire story of Prophet Yusuf (alayhis salam) can be
found in Surah 12 of the Qur'an.
