He reveals himself as a shepherd to the brothers, telling them about a dream he has had last night.
Satan tells them that he saw the ten brothers carrying a child; as they were his slaves and he was their master; as they were ten horses pulling a chariot being ridden by the child; as they were working for him as shepherds and farmers and the child on a thrown.

“God annunciates to him about the next prophet, who will be from his own generation. One night, his son, Joseph, dreams about the sun, the moon and eleven stars which kneel in front of him. He tells Jacob, who advises him not to tell his brothers about the dream,” comes as a synopsis of the series by iFilm English website.
Prophet Joseph is dear to Jews, Christians and Muslims alike. For centuries, the story of his life has been told over and over in many different ways and in many different languages.
