This article demonstrates the communication aspect of the Suratul Yusuf through the method of qualitative content analysis. The communication aspects that will be discussed are themes emerging from the analysis that include interpersonal communication, non verbal communication, self-disclosure, conflict management and inter cultural communication. This study, among others, suggests that human beings can benefit from certain stories in the Quran if they examine the deeper meaning of the verses. Although aspects of communication have not been highlighted directly in this surah, this study reveals some examples related to certain aspects in communication, and how they have been managed and thus how we can learn some lessons (regarding communication) from such events.
