Early Bombay edition in Persian, of the story of Yousuf and Zuleikha, which forms the medieval Islamic version of the narrative of the prophet Yousuf and Potiphar's wife. Developed primarily from the account in Sura twelve of the Qur'an, a distinct story of Yousuf and Zuleikha seems to have developed in Persia around the tenth century CE. The fine nasta'liq text is given in quatrains in two columns which is specific to Islamic mathnawis with calligraphic marginalia. In 1483, the renowned poet Jami wrote his interpretation of the allegorical romance and religious texts of Yousuf and Zuleikha. It became a classic example and the most famous version of the Sufi interpretation of Qur'anic narrative material. Jami's example shows how a religious community takes a story from a sacred text and appropriates it in a religious and socio-cultural setting different from the original version. Therefore, it is known as a masterpiece of Sufi mystical poetry. Jami's adaptation of the famous tale served as a model for many writers across Asia and resonated with the story of Yousuf and Zuleikha, as Islam continued to spread in the continent.
