520 3    |a In MS 333a and 333c we find first the story of Yaqqubu followed by the story of Yusuf, all together known as the ‘Hadithi ya Yaqqubu na Yusufu’ In Islam it is believed that Prophets, like Issa and Musa for instance, are descendants of Yaqqubu who was the first Prophet. Here there is a ficticious narrative about the life of Yaqqubu followed, in MS 333c, by the narrative about the life of Yusuf, the virtuous Joseph, one of the 12 sons of Yaqqubu. Poetic versions of this story have been composed in Persian, Urdu, and Javanese. Yaqqubu was an Israeli and his son Yusuf was sold to the Egyptians because of jealousy of his brOther. Once in Egypt, Yusuf become an important person and established himself and his family there and began to develop a community of Israeli in Egypt that are the anscestors of the Jewish people.
