@Hadithoftheday Israel.
Yaqub A.S had 12 children. The 12 children of Yaqub A.S had many offsprings. The 12 children were the 12 tribes of Bani Israel.
The twelve tribes of Israel are the descendents of Yaqub A.S, that's why Yaqub A.S also known as Israel.

@Hadithoftheday Israel is the name of the Prophet Yaqub A.S that is used when referring to the Israelites, known as the Children of Israel in the Quran.
Allah says in Qur'an:
"O Children of Israel, remember My favor that I have bestowed upon you and that I preferred you over the worlds." (2:47)

@Hadithoftheday Yaqub A.S had a son "Yusuf" A.S.
The story of Yusuf A.S is a unique one among the stories of prophets in the Qur’an.
The uniqueness of his story is that it is the only story of a prophet that is told in entirety in a single surah in the Qur’an, Surah Yusuf, Chapter 12.

@Hadithoftheday This is the most detailed and fascinating story in the Quran, involving both human weaknesses such as jealousy, hatred, pride, passion, deception, intrigue, cruelty, and terror as well as noble qualities such as patience, loyalty, bravery, nobility, and compassion

@Hadithoftheday Yaqub A.S was a patient man.
Indeed, His patience is Exampelary.
Allah says in Qur'an:
Patience is most befitting” (Qur’an 12:83)

@Hadithoftheday When someone says sabr (patience), we often hear the word jameel (beautiful) added to it i.e "Sabrun-Jameel".
This famous phrase was used by Yaqub A.S.
Amidst all the mysteries and agonies, Prophet Yaqub A.S remained patient and steadfast.
