This research aims to examine and understand cases of sexual violence that befell the Prophet Joseph that was recorded in the verses of the Quran. The Prophet Joseph as a survivor of sexual violence suffered from verbal sexual harassment, attempted rape compulsion, and victim-blaming. The data is obtained by library research and analyzed using the socio-historical approach and qirā’ah mubādalah to analyze the method. The research results indicate that men and women must create a safe space of sexual violence and avoid destructive actions. The Prophet Joseph's strategic move came out of the circle of sexual violence and became a survivor by implementing the unity of God's values in various conditions.
