Sister Cindy read an English Approximation (Sahih International) of the above verses.
We have chosen to use Tafsir Ibn Kathir.
Volume 5 Page 170-177 (From our library shelf)
We only had enough time to read the first part of “Yusuf’s Interpretation of the King’s Dream”
and the first part of “The King investigates what happened between the Wife of the ‘Aziz,
the Women in the City, and Yusuf”.
and the first part of “The King investigates what happened between the Wife of the ‘Aziz,
the Women in the City, and Yusuf”.

Discussion:
Sister Lamiaa pointed out that Verse 52 has two opinions about who is the person speaking.
She informed us that she learnt that “The wife of the Aziz” is the stronger opinion than “Prophet
Yusuf”. We have further researched this and find that indeed the majority of scholars are of the
opinion that it was “The wife of the Aziz” while the minority of scholars are of the opinion that
it was “Prophet Yusuf”
