Versículo: 94

وَلَمَّا فَصَلَتِ ٱلۡعِيرُ قَالَ أَبُوهُمۡ إِنِّي لَأَجِدُ رِيحَ يُوسُفَۖ لَوۡلَآ أَن تُفَنِّدُونِ

(94) When the caravan pulled ahead, their father said^[2817]: “Certainly, I perceive Yūsuf’s smell; if only you would not think me senile^[2818]!”

[2817] As his sons left Egypt heading towards the Levant, Prophet Jacob (عليه السلام) sensed his long lost son’s smell from a distance (cf. al-Ṭabarī, al-Qurṭubī, Ibn Kathīr, Ibn ʿĀshūr). God Almighty inspired him so indicating thus that the difficult times were over (cf. al-Rāzī, Ibn ʿĀshūr).
[2818] Tufannidūn derives from fanad which means dotage or weakness of mind due to old age (cf. Ibn Qutaybah, Gharīb al-Qur’ān, Ibn Fāris, Maqāyīs al-Lughah, al-Iṣfahānī, al-Mufradāt).
