h-y-t

Description

The Arabic root ه-ي-ت (h-y-t) appears in the Quran primarily in the expression "هَيْتَ لَكَ" (hayta laka) in Surah Yusuf (12:23), where Potiphar's wife attempts to seduce Prophet Yusuf. The term conveys a meaning of calling, beckoning, or summoning someone urgently, often with a sense of readiness or availability. In its Quranic context, it represents a moment of moral trial and temptation, highlighting Yusuf's steadfastness and the contrast between illicit desire and prophetic integrity.
