                          Prophet Yusuf’s attitude here is an example of both submis-
                 sion to the will of Allah and of great intelligence. Most ignorant peo-
                 ple become annoyed whenever they hear the slightest word spoken
                 against themselves and react in an emotional manner. Prophet Yusuf
                 (as), however, kept his thoughts concealed, as the verses tell us, in
                 other words, he did not allow his innermost feelings to be sensed by
                 others. The events which follow are related below:
