Transliteration:( Thumma ya'tee mim ba'di zalika 'aamun feehi yughaa sun naasu wa feehi ya'siroon )
"Then after that, there will come a year in which people will be relieved by rain and in which they will press juice [108]."
This verse contains two important lessons:
Dreams of Non-Believers: Sometimes, even the dreams of infidels can come true, as demonstrated by the Pharaoh, who was an infidel. His dream, interpreted by Hazrat Yusuf (on whom be peace), turned out to be accurate, showing that divine knowledge can manifest in various forms, regardless of the faith of the dreamer.
The Variety of Conditions and Their Representation in Dreams: Conditions and difficulties, including blessings like rain or adversity, are often seen in dreams. These diverse forms reflect the different states that will manifest in the Hereafter, where deeds will take various forms, just as the dream portrayed abundance and drought.
The tafsir of Surah Yusuf verse 49 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Yusuf ayat 43 which provides the complete commentary from verse 43 through 49.
(12:49) Then there will come a year when people will be helped by plenty of rain and they will press (grapes).”[41]
41. The literal meaning of yasiroon is: “they will press.” Here it has been used to denote that state of verdure which was going to prevail after the famine years because of rainfall and flood in the Nile. For, when the land will be watered, there will be abundance of seed to press oil, and abundance of fruit to press juice and abundance of fodder for cattle to press milk out of them. It should be noted that Prophet Joseph not only interpreted the king’s dream but also told them how to preserve and reserve grain during the first seven years of prosperity for the subsequent seven years of famine. Moreover he foretold the good news of prosperity after the seven years of famine, though there was no hint of this in the dream of the king.
