Yusuf-Zulaikah by Hafiz Barkhurdar

Prince Yusuf is a slave of Princess Zulaikah who is married off to another lord. Yusuf is imprisoned for 12 years for his love for his master’s wife, whom he scrupulously keeps at decent distance. His knowledge to interpret Pharaoh’s dream gets him not only his release from prison, but also a princely position, whereas Zulaikah is turned out of her palace by her husband for loving Yusuf and is reduced to a beggar. Yusuf’s father Yaqoob regains his lost vision. He turns Zulaikah into a charming young houri from a hag by magical powers. Zulaikah’s husband dies and she ultimately marries her love, Yusuf. After sometime, Yusuf also dies. In agony of separation, Zulaikah faithfully follows him 13 days later.
