Hazrat Yusuf was thrown in a Well 
Hazrat yusuf ( A.S) was prophet of God and king of Misr . His step brothers were his enemy . Because Hazrat Yusuf ( A.S) was very beloved to his father They agreed to a particularly vicious crime that involved cutting the relation of the womb, undutiful treatment of parents, and harshness towards the young. 
Hazrat Yusuf was thrown in a Well

It was also harsh towards the old and weak who have the rights of being respected, honored and appreciated, as well as, being honored with Allah and having parental rights on their offspring. They sought to separate the beloved father, who had reached old age and his bones became weak, from his beloved young son, in spite of his weakness, tender age and his need of his father's kindness. 
 According to their plan ,to take him and throw him down the well, well taking the advice of their elder brother Rubil, they went to their father Ya`qub, peace be upon him. They said to him, "Why is it that you, Do not trust us with Yusuf though we are indeed his well-wishers.'' They started executing their plan by this introductory statement, even though they really intended its opposite, out of envy towards Yusuf for being loved by his father. 
They said, "Send him with us tomorrow so that we all enjoy ourselves and play. And verily, we will take care of him. we will protect him and ensure his safety for you. He (Ya`qub) said: “Truly, it saddens me that you should take him away.He said that it was hard on him that he be separated from for the duration of their trip, until they came back. 
This demonstrates the deep love that Ya`qub had for his son, because he saw in Hazrat Yusuf ( A.S) great goodness and exalted qualities with regards to conduct and physical attractiveness associated with the rank of prophethood. May Allah's peace and blessings be on him. Hazrat yaqub (A.S) said “ I fear that you might be careless with him while you are tending the cattle , then a wolf might come and eat him while you are unaware.' . 
Hazrat yaqub’s sons gave a spontaneous reply for their father's statement, saying `If a wolf should attack and devour him while we are all around him , then indeed we are the losers and weak.' So that his father sends him with a good heart and comfortable with his decision. Hazrat Ya`qub (A.S), peace be upon him, embraced Hazrat Yusuf ( A.S) , kissed him and supplicated to Allah for him when he sent him with his brothers. 
The time spent between pretending to be well-wishers and harming Yusuf was no longer than their straying far from their father's eyes. They then started abusing Hazrat Yusuf ( A.S) , by cursing, and harming him by beating. When they reached the well that they agreed to throw him in, they tied him with rope and lowered him down. 
Hazrat Yusuf ( A.S) would beg one of them, he would smack and curse him. When he tried to hold to the sides of the well, Yusuf’s brothers struck his hand and then cut the rope when he was only half the distance from the bottom of the well. He fell into the water and was submerged. However, he was able to ascend a stone that was in the well and stood on it. 
Then Allah revealed to Yusuf, `Do not be saddened by what you have suffered. Surely, you will have a way out of this distress and a good end, for Allah will aid you against them, elevate your rank and raise your grade. After throwing in the bottom of the well. They went back to their father, during the darkness of the night, crying and showing grief for losing Yusuf. 
They started giving excuses to Hazrat yaqoob(A.S) for what happened to Yusuf. They tried to lessen the impact of the news they were delivering. They said, ``You have reason not to believe us because of the strange coincidence that happened to us And they brought Hazrat Yusuf ( A.S) shirt stained with false blood. They slaughtered a sheep and stained Hazrat Yusuf ( A.S) shirt with its blood. 
They claimed that this was the shirt Yusuf was wearing when the wolf devoured him. But, they forgot to tear the shirt, and this is why Allah's Prophet Hazrat Ya`qub (A.S) did not believe them. Rather, he told them what he felt about thus refusing their false claim Hazrat yaqoob Ya`qub said, `I will firmly observe patience for this plot on which you agreed, until Allah relieves the distress with His aid and compassion. 
And it is Allah (alone) Whose help can be sought against the lies and unbelievable incident that you said had occurred.
