Ayat 77. They [(Yusuf's (Joseph) brothers] said: "If he
steals, there was a brother of his [Yusuf (Joseph)] who did steal before (him)."
But these things did Yusuf (Joseph) keep in himself, revealing not the secrets
to them. He said (within himself): "You are in worst case, and Allah knows best
the truth of what you assert!".
Hazrat Abu Qatadah (May Allah be pleased
with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) was asked about observing As-Saum (the fast) on the
tenth day of Muharram, and he replied, "It is an expiation for the sins of the
preceding year.'' [Muslim].
[Muslim Book 06, Chapter 33, Hadith
# 2603].
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Yusuf Ayat
68. "And verily, he was endowed with knowledge because We had
taught him, but most men know not." Ashura' 10th of Muharram. In
another Hadith, it is stated that when the Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) emigrated from Makkah to Al-Madinah, he saw that
the Jews were fasting on this day. He asked them why they did this on that day,
and they told him that they did it for the reason that Allah granted Prophet
Musa [PBUH]emancipation from Pharaoh on this day, and so they observed Saum in
token of their joy. On this, he [SAWW](PBUH) said that in this happiness of Prophet Musa [PBUH],
Muslims have a greater right to observe Saum than the Jews. Consequently, he
also observed Saum on 10th of Muharram. Then, he said that if he lived the
following year, he would observe Saum on 9th of Muharram also so that they would
make themselves different from the Jews.
