Stories and lessons between the well and the throne chair

Between the well and the throne chair stories and reflections He said, "Have you known what you did to Joseph and his brother when you were ignorant" [Yusuf: 89] Perhaps the words of Joseph peace be upon him to his brothers struck them like lightning when they heard them. They perhaps did not imagine for a moment that they would stand face to face with Joseph again, and maybe they thought he was dead. But time passed, and now they are before Joseph in a difficult situation that they do not envy. What they did to Joseph peace be upon him and his brother is shameful. No doubt they remembered everything they did to Joseph from the moment he was taken from his father’s hands until the moment he was thrown into the well, and even the moment he was sold for a cheap price, a few dirhams. They surely remembered all their cruelty and that none of them showed mercy or compassion, forgetting that he was their brother. The situation is very difficult, especially since they exaggerated in hurting him without mercy or compassion, and they did not even consider their father’s condition and his old age.
