The above verse emphasises two further points. The first is
the way that his brothers collaborated as they threw Prophet Yusuf
(as) into the well. Perhaps they imagined they could assume joint re-
sponsibility for the act but their thinking was very mistaken. Rather,
their behaviour merely proves that they shared a common lack of con-
science since not one of them stood out against the course of action
they had taken.
"O truthful Yusuf, tell us of seven fat
cows which seven thin ones ate and seven
green ears of wheat and some others
which were dry so that I can return to
them and let them know."
(Surah Yusuf: 46)
