In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
The story of Joseph, peace be upon him, with the wife of Al-Aziz
The doors were closed, evidence of strife
The danger of your infatuation with a man lies
The impact of this temptation on your religion, your faith, and the life of your heart
Until your heart becomes blind to every advice or sermon from within or outside yourself
Only those who are fascinated by him will see it
Islam is keen to protect you from falling into this temptation
For fear of falling into a great sin
What spoils your life and the hereafter is adultery
Therefore, it is forbidden for men who are not your mahrams to have all means that lead you to commit adultery with them
You are prohibited from entering without a mahram
It is forbidden to be alone with you
It is forbidden to shake hands with you or touch anything on your body
He forbade looking at you and other means
He also forbade you from all means by which you can tempt men
It is forbidden for you to display adornment and leave your house wearing perfume
He forbade you from being submissive in words when talking to them
And prevent you from swaying in your walk
Or hit the ground with your foot to alert men to the adornment you are concealing
All this is to maintain your honor and maintain your chastity
And the beginning of your infatuation with the man
From looking at it repeatedly
And move the heart and soul to Him
Therefore, God forbade these beginnings
And he said
And tell the believing women to become angry with their eyes
And they protect their private parts
They do not show off their adornment
Except what appears
And let them put their veils on their pockets
They do not show off their adornment
Except for their husbands
Or their fathers
Or their fathers and their husbands
Or their children
Or their husband's father
Or their brothers
Or their brothers' sons
Or their sisters' sons
Or their women
Or what filled them
Or what their right hands possess
Or the followers who are not men
Or children who did not show women's private parts
They do not strike with their feet
So that he may know what they hide of their adornment
And repent to God all together, O believers, that you may succeed
Abdul Aziz Al-Tarifi said
God commanded believing women to turn a blind eye
He gave priority to lowering his gaze rather than preserving relief
Because letting go of sight is a path that ends with wasting relief
God provided the means to preserve the goal
Then God forbade the women of the believers from displaying adornment
Then there is a connection between freeing the sight and adornment
This is because foreign men should not adorn themselves excessively
Except for those whom she set her sights on
So she looked at them with her eyes
She decorated her body and clothes
Even if she did not release her sight
There was no reason in my heart to beautify them
Whoever preserves her sight, preserves her chastity
It did not occur to her to attract men to her through adornment
Because the heart is devoid of them
This is why preserving one's eyesight is given precedence over preserving one's chastity and forbidding adornment
Because sight is a rope that attracts hearts
And he moves her to adorn herself to tempt men
Seducing them and falling into forbidden things
And in the story of Joseph and the wife of Al-Aziz
What indicates this clear fact
The presence of Joseph, peace be upon him, in the house of the dear wife
He caused her to look at him a lot
And contemplate his beauty, virtues, and appearance
This made her fall in love with him
This is a lesson for every girl and woman who works or studies
Or live in a mixed environment with men
She sees them often and interacts with them
It is rare for a girl or woman to be safe from temptation
With the men around her in such an atmosphere
A married woman should not think that she is immune from this temptation
Being under her husband
She allows herself to mix with men
This is the woman of the dear
She was fascinated by a girl who worked in her house while she was married
She has someone who is sufficient for her and protects her from falling into adultery
However, it is because of strife
I wanted the halal for the haram
She closed the doors to get what she wanted
And so are you
If you release your sight without control
You may be mesmerized by the beauty and youth of a man
Or you are fascinated by something else about it
So close the door to temptation from the beginning and lower your gaze
This requires you to be careful with modern methods
Which makes you look at men in privacy without anyone seeing you
Like watching movies on satellite channels
Or modern Internet programs
Such as YouTube, Tiktok, Snap, etc
Or communicate with men through modern means of communication
Under the pretext of fellowship and study
The dear woman closing doors
Evidence of her falling into temptation
Her desire to do something forbidden is not approved by those around her
All the doors were closed so that no one could reach them
She prepared to close the doors
The solitude occurred between her and Joseph, peace be upon him
Being alone never brings goodness
Ibn Jarir al-Tabari, may God have mercy on him, said
The woman closed the doors of the houses on her and Joseph
When she wanted him and sought him out door after door
Al-Taher Ibn Ashour, may God have mercy on him, said
Closing the doors makes each door obscure the space in which it is located
Ghalut is weakened to indicate the intensity and strength of the action
That is, it was closed tightly
This picture is of closing the doors
Evidence of the intention of a dear woman to do evil and the desire to commit adultery
And like this picture today of closing the doors
We see it in modern social media
Such as telephone and Internet programs
We see it in the girl's coding of the phone
So that no one would see her correspondence with those she was fascinated with
We see it in whispers on calls
So that no one next to her could hear her
He does not know what you are saying or who you are talking to
We see it by turning the phone on its face
So that no one can see who is calling
We see it in her distance from people
Being alone in closed rooms for long hours
So that you can't see her feelings through her facial expressions while she speaks
The girl's fear of seeing her family or knowing what she is doing
This is evidence of what he did wrong
According to the saying of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
Righteousness and good character
Sin is what wavers within yourself
I hated for people to see it
Narrated by Muslim
The dear woman closing doors
There is evidence that if a woman is fascinated by a man
She sought to be alone with him in any way
Or complete physical seclusion
Or being alone through modern means of communication
Which makes people live as if they were in a closed room
This seclusion is only attended by a third person
He is the one who paved the way for it, and he is Satan
According to the saying of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
A man should not be alone with a woman
Except the third of them was Satan
Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi
He knew with certainty that was beyond doubt
Every woman seeks to be alone with a man
She must prepare herself to tempt and seduce him
With its charms, beauty and adornment
To be desirable and wanted
The message is understood
Otherwise, she told him, “Here you are.”
Do you realize the seriousness of the beginnings he makes?
Satan has it for you to trap you in
For the rest of the talk
We will continue in an upcoming meeting, God willing
