they went back to their father they said: O our father! The measure is denied
us, so send with us our brother that we may obtain the measure, surely we
will guard him well.

Commentary
Nak-tal – (we may obtain the measure), origin of this
word is ‘ik-ti-yaal, which has been derived from the word kay-la. Kay-la means
“to measure”. ‘Ik-ti-yaal means to obtain duly measured”.
Prophet Joseph (peace
be upon him) arranged in all respect that they should bring His brother Binyamin.
- First of all; He promised that grain’s
full measure of the portion of their brother will be provided.
- Secondly, He (peace be upon him) menaced
them also in these worlds: Don’t think of coming unto Me if you do not
bring your brother.
- Thirdly, He (peace be upon him) returned
their merchandise silently and secretly.
The brothers could say
only at the time of hearing the promise and menace from Joseph (peace be upon
him): We shall try our best to prepare our father that He should send Binyamin with
us.
It is commanded that
as soon as they reached their father, they caused to hear him the first news:
Our father! No grain will be given to us in future. The ruler
of Egypt has said clearly: Bring your brother along with yourselves,
whom you have left behind at home, when you come again next time, otherwise you
will not be provided the corn. So, send our brother with us in our next round.
We will guard him fully. The brothers were much influenced by the promise and
menace of Joseph (peace be upon him), so they did not delay in presenting the
matter before Jacob (peace be upon him). It is obvious that they would have
told their father at first that the ruler of Egypt {Joseph (peace be
upon him)} is a very good entertainer; who is very munificent and receives the
guests warmly. Jacob (peace be upon him) would have seen, to and fro, the
camels; loaded with saddlebags full of grain also. In short, they would have prepared
well the situation for presenting their application, so that their father
should recommend their request without hesitation. Along with it they said too:
Now; we have not been carrying our brother for supports, therefore, there is no
reason of negligence. During journey, we would have no work but “Safety” only.
