Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Ya`qub's Answer to Their RequestAllah narrates to us that His Prophet Ya`qub said to his children, in response to their request that he send Yusuf with them to the desert to tend their cattle, إِنِّى لَيَحْزُنُنِى أَن تَذْهَبُواْ بِهِ(Truly, it saddens me that you should take him away.) He said that it was hard on him that he be separated from Yusuf for the duration of their trip, until they came back.
