Tafsir
They said, 'O Court officer, lo! he has a father, an aged man, who loves him more than we do, and who finds solace in him from [the anguish he feels for] his dead son; and it will grieve him to part with him, so take one of us, enslave him, in his place, instead of him: indeed we see that you are among the virtuous', in [terms of] your actions.
"Yusuf's Brothers offer taking One of Them instead of Binyamin as a Slave, Yusuf rejects the Offer
When it was decided that Binyamin was to be taken and kept with Yusuf according to the law they adhered by, Yusuf's brothers started requesting clemency and raising compassion in his heart for them,
قَالُواۡ يَا أَيُّهَا الۡعَزِيزُ إِنَّ لَهُ أَبًا شَيۡخًا كَبِيرًا
They said, ""O Aziz! Verily, he has an old father...""
who loves him very much and is comforted by his presence from the son that he lost,
فَخُذۡ أَحَدَنَا مَكَانَهُ
so take one of us in his place.
instead of Binyamin to remain with you,
إِنَّا نَرَاكَ مِنَ الۡمُحۡسِنِينَ
Indeed we think that you are one of the doers of good.
the good doers, just, and accepting fairness
قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللّهِ أَن نَّأۡخُذَ إِلاَّ مَن وَجَدۡنَا مَتَاعَنَا عِندَهُ
He said:""Allah forbid, that we should take anyone but him with whom we found our property..."",
according to the judgement that you gave for his punishment,
إِنَّـا إِذًا لَّظَالِمُونَ
Indeed, we should be wrongdoers.
if we take an innocent man instead of the guilty man."
