Why did nabi yusuf make his brothers move his remains from egypt?

[Yahya]

Before he died the wise prophet made his brothers promise to take his body to Canaan and out of Egypt when he died.

Did he foresee that they would dig up the graves of the royals and those associated with them and place them in museums? was he advised on this matter to prevent the body of a holy prophet who was presumably buried next to the pharaoh he was loyal to, from being dug up later and placed in a European museum?

I just can't help but imagine what would have happened if the Europeans excavated the tomb he was buried in and took his body back to their museums. The pharaohs are definitely being punished by Allah to have their peace disturbed after death, as in ancient Egypt the burial site was not to be disturbed and doing so was a bad omen.

Good point but I doubt they could gain much by changing early human history.

The Qur'an unlike the Bible never addresses the Sovereign who ruled Egypt in the time of Prophet Yusuf as "Pharaoh" "فرعون", there are Historical implications behind this.

According to Modern Egyptologists Prophet Yusuf entered Egypt during the time of Hyksos in the Second Intermediate Period, under the rule of the Hyksos there was no Pharaoh.
