  • خَيۡرٌ better
  • أَمِ or
  • ٱللَّهُ Allah
  • ٱلۡوَٰحِدُ the One

Footnotes
1 Single, individual and unique in His attributes and His deeds.
2 He who subdues doubts and false arguments with clear evidences and who subdues and imposes His will upon all creation.
He [Joseph] then explicitly calls them to faith, saying: O my two fellow-prisoners!, inmates [of the prison]: Are several lords better, or, is, God, the One, the Almighty, better? (an interrogative meant as an affirmative).
