This commentary explains ayahs 12:70–72 together.
After Yusuf supplied them with their provisions, he ordered some of his servants to place his silver bowl (in Binyamin's bag), according to the majority of scholars. Some scholars said that the king's bowl was made from gold. Ibn Zayd added that the king used it to drink from, and later, measured food grains with it since food became scarce in that time, according to Ibn `Abbas, Mujahid, Qatadah, Ad-Dahhak and `Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd. Shu`bah said that Abu Bishr narrated that Sa`id bin Jubayr said that Ibn `Abbas said that the king's bowl was made from silver and he used it to drink with. Yusuf had the bowl placed in Binyamin's bag while they were unaware, and then had someone herald,
(O you (in) the caravan! Surely, you are thieves!) They looked at the man who was heralding this statement and asked him,
("What is it that you have lost" They said: "We have lost the bowl of the king..."), which he used to measure food grains,
(and for him who produces it is a camel load), as a reward,
(and I will be bound by it.), as assurance of delivery of the reward.
