Ayat 16. And they came to their father in the early part
of the night weeping.
Ayat
17. They said:"O our father! We went
racing with one another, and left Yusuf (Joseph) by our belongings and a wolf
devoured him; but you will never believe us even when we speak the
truth."
Hazrat Wabisah bin Ma`bad (May Allah be
pleased with him) reported: I went to Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) and he asked me, "Have you come to inquire about
piety?'' I replied in the affirmative. Then he said, "Ask your heart regarding
it. Piety is that which contents the soul and comforts the heart, and sin is
that which causes doubts and perturbs the heart, even if people pronounce it
lawful and give you verdicts on such matters again and again.''
[Masnad Ahmad, Imam Ahmad Hadith #
228/4].
Lesson
: as mentioned above in Surah Yusuf Ayat 17.
"but you will never believe us even when we speak the
truth." There are two points about
this Hadith. First, it is one of the miracles of Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) who discovered the nature of the question before it
was put to him. Second, man's heart is the biggest guide to him and he,
therefore, should keep his heart illuminated with the light of Faith so as to
continue receiving guidance from it.
