Surah 12 Yusuf — Ayah 6
وَكَذَٰلِكَ يَجْتَبِيكَ رَبُّكَ وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِن تَأْوِيلِ ٱلْأَحَادِيثِ وَيُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَهُۥ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰٓ ءَالِ يَعْقُوبَ كَمَآ أَتَمَّهَا عَلَىٰٓ أَبَوَيْكَ مِن قَبْلُ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسْحَٰقَ ۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌۭ
۽ اھري طرح تنھنجو پالڻھار توکي سڳورو ڪندو ۽ توکي خوابن جو تعبير سيکاريندو ۽ پنھنجي نعمت توتي ۽ يعقوبؑ جي اولاد تي اھڙي طرح پوري ڪندو جھڙي اڳ تنھنجي پيءُ ڏاڏي ابراھيمؑ ۽ اسحاقؑ تي پوري ڪيائين، بيشڪ تنھنجو پالڻھار ڄاڻندڙ حڪمت وارو آھي.

Tafsir · Ibn Kathir (Abridged)
Interpretation of Yusuf's Vision
Allah says that Ya`qub said to his son Yusuf, `Just as Allah chose you to see the eleven stars, the sun and the moon prostrate before you in a vision,
(Thus will your Lord choose you) designate and assign you to be a Prophet from Him,
(and teach you the interpretation of Ahadith).' Mujahid and several other scholars said that this part of the Ayah is in reference to the interpreting of dreams. He said next,
(and perfect His favor on you), `by His Message and revelation to you.' This is why Ya`qub said afterwards,
(as He perfected it aforetime on your fathers, Ibrahim...), Allah's intimate friend,
(and Ishaq), Ibrahim's son,
(Verily, your Lord is All-Knowing, All-Wise.) Allah knows best whom to chose for His Messages.
