قَالُوا۟ نَفْقِدُ صُوَاعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَلِمَن جَآءَ بِهِۦ حِمْلُ بَعِيرٍ وَأَنَا۠ بِهِۦ زَعِيمٌ
بعض لوگ کہتے ہیں کہ ان کا پانی پینے کا برتن تھا۔ لیکن اعلان غلّہ ماپنے کے برتن کا ہوا ہے۔ معلوم ہوتا ہے یوسفؑ نے پانی پینے کا برتن رکھنا چاہا تھا لیکن غلطی سے ماپنے کا برتن رکھا گیا۔ مگر یہ توجیہ غلط ہے کیونکہ صُوَاعَ کا لفظ جو یہاں استعمال ہوا ہے اس کے معنے ماپنے کے برتن کے بھی ہیں اور پانی پینے کے برتن کے بھی۔ پس ایک ہی لفظ کا ترجمہ ماپنے کا برتن بھی ہے اور پانی پینے کا برتن بھی۔
Important Words:
صواع (measuring cup) is derived from صاع. They say, صاع الشیء i.e. he folded or doubled the thing; he twisted it or bent it. صاع الحب means, he measured the corn with the measure known as صاع. صاع القوم means, he incited the people against one another. صاع is a well-known measure for measuring corn, etc. صواع means, a certain measure for measuring corn; a cup of the kind called جام from which one drinks (Aqrab & Lane).
Commentary:
The incident mentioned in this and the contiguous verses has given rise to much controversy. It is absurd to say, as some commentators of the Quran have done, that Joseph first intentionally put the drinking cup into his brother’s sack, and then accused him of theft—an action much below his dignity, inasmuch as it represents him as guilty not only of lying but also of great injustice to his brother. The whole story has originated with the Bible from which some commentators seem to have unthinkingly borrowed it. See Genesis 44:2-15.
The Quran makes the whole matter quite clear. What Joseph is mentioned as having put into his brother’s sack was a سقایة (a drinking cup), while the vessel which was declared by the royal proclaimer to be missing was صواع (a measuring cup). Unlike the سقایة the صواع has here been called صواع الملك i.e. the measuring cup of the King because it was Government property. Joseph had himself put a سقایة (a drinking cup) into his brother’s sack without the latter’s knowledge, that it might be of use to him on the journey. But the صواع الملك i.e. the royal measuring cup which seemed to have been in Joseph’s hand when he was saying farewell to his brother happened to be placed in Benjamin’s sack by mistake, nobody knowing how it found its way there. In search for this precious thing the luggage of the whole caravan was searched, that of Benjamin last of all. But it happened to be found in his luggage along with the سقایة (drinking cup) which Joseph had himself put there. Joseph at once understood how the mistake had occurred, but, thinking that all this was God’s own plan for detaining Benjamin, he judiciously kept silent until the caravan was gone. This is how Benjamin remained behind with Joseph.

14:42.
安拉的众先知满怀天生的善心。努哈的祈祷显示, 对他的反对是长时间的, 固执的, 从不停止, 他使他的人民走上正道的一切努力一定已失败, 他那为数不多的追随者一定仍然没有可能再增加, 而且他的对手们一定已超过了一切合法界限来反对和迫害他和他的追随者, 放任地干着罪恶勾当。情况一定已变成这样; 像努哈这样一个十分富有同情心的人不得不作反对他的人民的祈祷。在同样的处境中, 穆圣对他的对手们的态度呈现出鲜明的对照。在吴侯德战役中, 他被击落了两颗牙齿, 身受重伤, 大量流血, 但只听得他口里说: “一个民族平白无故伤害他们的先知, 还在他脸上涂满了鲜血, 而他无非是号召他们信奉安拉, 这样一个民族怎么得救。我的养主啊, 宽恕我的人民吧! 因为他们忘乎所以, 不知道在干些什么”。(زُرْقَانِی, Zurqani--------هِشَام, Hisham)

14:42.
God’s Prophets are full of the milk of human kindness. Noah’s prayer shows that opposition to him must have been long, persistent and unremitting, and that all his efforts to bring his people to the right path must have proved abortive, and there must have remained no possibility for any further addition to his small following, and also that his opponents must have exceeded all legitimate bounds in opposing and persecuting him and his followers, and in indulging in evil pursuits. Matters must have come to such a pass that a man of a most compassionate disposition like Noah was constrained to pray against his people. In an identical situation the Holy Prophet’s attitude to his opponents presents a vivid contrast. In the battle of Uhud, when his two teeth were broken and he was badly wounded and bled profusely, the only words that escaped his lips were, 'How will a people get salvation who have wounded their Prophet and have smeared his face with blood for no fault, but that he calls them to God.
