Tafsir al-SadiAbd al-Rahman al-Sadi’

41 “My two fellow prisoners! As for one of you”—the one who dreamed that he was pressing wine—he will leave prison “and serve wine to his master.” That is, he will serve wine to the master whom he formerly served, which necessarily entails his release from prison. “As for the other”—the one who dreamed that he was carrying bread upon his head from which birds were eating—“he will be crucified, and the birds will eat from his head.” Joseph interpreted [the image of] the bread eaten by the birds as the flesh and fat of the man’s head and the brain it contained. He would not be buried and concealed from the birds; rather, he would be crucified and placed where the birds could eat from him. Joseph then informed them that the interpretation he had given them would inevitably come to pass, saying: “The matter about which you both seek an interpretation has been decreed.” That is, the matter whose interpretation and explanation you are asking about.

﴿٤١﴾ ﴿يَا صَاحِبَيِ السِّجْنِ أَمَّا أَحَدُكُمَا﴾ وهو الذي رأى أنه يعصر خمرا، فإنه يخرج من السجن ﴿فَيَسْقِي رَبَّهُ خَمْرًا﴾ أي: يسقي سيده الذي كان يخدمه خمرا، وذلك مستلزم لخروجه من السجن، ﴿وَأَمَّا الآخَرُ﴾ وهو: الذي رأى أنه يحمل فوق رأسه خبزا تأكل الطير منه. ﴿فَيُصْلَبُ فَتَأْكُلُ الطَّيْرُ مِنْ رَأْسِهِ﴾ فإنه عبر [عن] الخبز الذي تأكله الطير، بلحم رأسه وشحمه، وما فيه من المخ، وأنه لا يقبر ويستر عن الطيور، بل يصلب ويجعل في محل، تتمكن الطيور من أكله، ثم أخبرهما بأن هذا التأويل الذي تأوله لهما، أنه لا بد من وقوعه فقال: ﴿قُضِيَ الأمْرُ الَّذِي فِيهِ تَسْتَفْتِيَانِ﴾ أي: تسألان عن تعبيره وتفسيره.
