The Arabic oral tradition has even more details concerning Joseph, the chariot given to him, the horse that was to be hitched to the chariot, the Pharaoh`s daughter, the marriage of Joseph to the Pharaoh`s daughter, and Jacob.

I very much doubt there’s any independent original tradition, here’s the English version of Surah Yusuf from the Quran:

In the wikiwacky, there’s this:

“according to historical sources,”

that should be followed with “[citation needed]”, but the wikipeople are braindead ass-kissing leftists.

Joseph died roughly 1640 bc
The Bible recounts that Joseph married Asenath. Though she is a high born Egyptian woman, she is NOT identified as a daughter of Pharaoh. In fact, her line is attributed to a Priest of On.

I am of the opinion that “Arabic oral traditions” may be closer to pure story telling and embellishment, than fact.
