وَقَالَ
لِلَّذِي
ظَنَّ
أَنَّهُ
نَاجٍ
مِّنْهُمَا
اذْكُرْنِي
عِندَ
رَبِّكَ
فَأَنسَاهُ
الشَّيْطَانُ
ذِكْرَ
رَبِّهِ
فَلَبِثَ
فِي
السِّجْنِ
بِضْعَ
سِنِينَ
wa-qāla li-lladhī ẓanna ʾannahū nājin minhumā dhkurnī ʿinda rabbika fa-ʾansāhu sh-shayṭānu dhikra rabbihī fa-labitha fī s-sijni biḍʿa sinīna
Joseph asked the one, whom he knew would not be executed, to mention his case to his Lord. Satan caused that man to forget all about Joseph and his case. Thus, Joseph remained in prison for some years.
