30. This mean we had drifted far from the place where Hazrat Yusuf (on whom be peace) was kept to look after our clothes, shooting arrows and running This tells us that archery is an ancient game which was practised in those days. From this we learn that a judge should not remind the accused of giving proof. They had learned the excuse about wolf from Hazrat Yaqoob (on whom be peace) because he had told them, "And I fear that wolf may eat him". (S12 V13)
