WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.000 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:09.089 The story of Joseph, peace be upon him, with the wife of Al-Aziz 00:00:09.089 --> 00:00:13.339 The news spread in the city 00:00:13.339 --> 00:00:19.390 This is the second scene of Joseph's story with Al-Aziz's wife 00:00:19.390 --> 00:00:25.390 The events of which take place between Al-Aziz’s wife and the women of the city 00:00:25.390 --> 00:00:28.390 And their envy of Joseph, peace be upon him 00:00:28.390 --> 00:00:30.550 God Almighty said 00:00:30.550 --> 00:00:37.549 Women in Medina said that Al-Aziz’s wife was seducing her boy about himself 00:00:37.549 --> 00:00:39.549 She was passionate about love 00:00:39.549 --> 00:00:43.549 We see it in clear error 00:00:43.549 --> 00:00:47.740 Ibn Jarir al-Tabari, may God have mercy on him, said 00:00:47.740 --> 00:00:49.740 God Almighty says mention him 00:00:49.740 --> 00:00:55.740 The women talked about the matter of Joseph and the wife of the dear in the city of Egypt 00:00:55.740 --> 00:01:00.740 What happened about them became public, but it was not kept secret 00:01:00.740 --> 00:01:06.969 They said, “The wife of Al-Aziz desires her servant, that is, her servant, about himself.” 00:01:06.969 --> 00:01:08.969 Al-Saadi, may God have mercy on him, said 00:01:08.969 --> 00:01:12.969 This means that the news became famous and widespread in the country 00:01:12.969 --> 00:01:17.969 The women talked about it and they started blaming her and saying 00:01:17.969 --> 00:01:22.969 A dear woman tells her boy about himself because he has fallen in love with her 00:01:22.969 --> 00:01:25.969 That is, this is disgusting 00:01:25.969 --> 00:01:28.969 She is a great woman 00:01:28.969 --> 00:01:30.969 And her husband is great 00:01:30.969 --> 00:01:36.969 Despite this, she continued to worry about himself about her boy, who was under her hand and in her service 00:01:36.969 --> 00:01:42.969 However, his love had reached a great extent in her heart 00:01:42.969 --> 00:01:46.099 It's common news in the city 00:01:46.099 --> 00:01:50.099 It gives us an indication of the nature of society at that time 00:01:50.099 --> 00:01:55.219 The nature of women’s councils and the talk that takes place in them 00:01:55.219 --> 00:02:00.219 People spread the news until it spread throughout the city 00:02:00.219 --> 00:02:06.219 What Al-Aziz had feared happened, as the news spread from Joseph, peace be upon him 00:02:06.219 --> 00:02:08.219 So he advised him by saying: 00:02:08.219 --> 00:02:11.219 Joseph turned away from this 00:02:11.219 --> 00:02:14.219 So Yusuf refrained from discussing the matter 00:02:14.219 --> 00:02:21.219 But the news spread and spread among people from a source other than Joseph, peace be upon him 00:02:21.219 --> 00:02:25.259 When the news reached the women of the city 00:02:25.259 --> 00:02:27.259 They shared it in their gatherings 00:02:27.259 --> 00:02:31.259 They criticized the dear woman for this evasiveness 00:02:31.259 --> 00:02:35.259 Their criticism of it included several issues 00:02:35.259 --> 00:02:37.259 The first one 00:02:37.259 --> 00:02:42.419 They denounced such behavior from someone like her and someone like him 00:02:42.419 --> 00:02:43.419 The second one 00:02:43.419 --> 00:02:46.419 Their explanation for this argument 00:02:46.419 --> 00:02:51.419 That it came from her because she was passionate about his love 00:02:51.419 --> 00:02:52.419 The third one 00:02:52.419 --> 00:02:58.419 They described her as being in clear error with no concealment or resemblance 00:02:58.419 --> 00:03:00.449 As for the first matter 00:03:00.449 --> 00:03:06.449 It is their disapproval that such behavior would be issued by someone like her and someone like him 00:03:06.449 --> 00:03:10.449 People have come to know that great people are great people 00:03:10.449 --> 00:03:12.449 And the owners of shrines 00:03:12.449 --> 00:03:16.449 They have higher morals than the morals of common people 00:03:16.449 --> 00:03:20.449 And they abstain from some permissible actions 00:03:20.449 --> 00:03:24.449 Maintaining their symptoms, people do not talk about them 00:03:24.449 --> 00:03:28.509 In his story, Raql was with Abu Sufyan before he converted to Islam 00:03:28.509 --> 00:03:30.509 Hercules said 00:03:30.509 --> 00:03:35.509 Which of you is closer in lineage to this man who claims to be a prophet? 00:03:35.509 --> 00:03:37.509 Abu Sufyan said 00:03:37.509 --> 00:03:38.509 So I said, “I am.” 00:03:38.509 --> 00:03:41.509 So they made me sit in front of him 00:03:41.509 --> 00:03:43.509 And my friends sat behind me 00:03:43.509 --> 00:03:46.509 Then he called his translator and said: 00:03:46.509 --> 00:03:47.509 Tell them 00:03:47.509 --> 00:03:52.509 I am asking about this man who claims to be a prophet 00:03:52.509 --> 00:03:55.509 If he lies to me, then lie to him 00:03:55.509 --> 00:03:57.509 Abu Sufyan said 00:03:57.509 --> 00:03:58.509 God bless 00:03:58.509 --> 00:04:02.509 If they had not influenced me to lie, I would have lied 00:04:02.509 --> 00:04:05.509 What prevented Abu Sufyan from lying? 00:04:05.509 --> 00:04:07.509 He is the master of his people 00:04:07.509 --> 00:04:12.639 I feared that it would be implied that he had lied one day 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:17.639 This is a lesson for all people of high standing in societies 00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:22.639 From scholars, prayers, preachers, imams of mosques, and others 00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:26.639 To monitor their actions and behavior with people 00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:30.639 And to rise above the morals of common people 00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:34.639 This is because they are the true masters of society 00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:37.639 Because people's eyes are raised to them 00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:41.639 Rather, it takes people away from this great group 00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:47.639 Which represents practical role models and religious leadership in all societies 00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:51.959 As well as the enemies of Islam and those lurking about it 00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:57.959 They are attacking Islam by attacking the actions of this group of society 00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:02.959 It is not appropriate for any of the scholars, supplications, or preachers 00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:05.959 Or others who represent this religion 00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:11.959 Their actions may cause people to turn away from Islam 00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:15.959 Or to open the door to challenging scholars, supplications, and others 00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:22.959 Especially with regard to the relationship with women in society with their various specialties 00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:28.959 Such as dealing with female media professionals and going out with them on video programmes 00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:33.959 This opens the door to criticism of supplications and scholars in general 00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:38.180 The second issue is their explanation for this prevarication 00:05:38.180 --> 00:05:43.180 That it came from her because she was passionate about his love 00:05:43.180 --> 00:05:46.339 Ibn Jarir al-Tabari, may God have mercy on him, said 00:05:46.339 --> 00:05:51.339 He says that Joseph's love had reached the depths of her heart 00:05:51.339 --> 00:05:55.339 So he entered under him until he conquered her heart 00:05:55.339 --> 00:06:00.339 The heart's lining is its veil and cover in which it is located 00:06:00.339 --> 00:06:05.339 This is the sixth of the ten levels of love 00:06:05.339 --> 00:06:10.339 Which Ibn al-Qayyim, may God have mercy on him, mentioned in his book Madarij al-Salikeen 00:06:10.339 --> 00:06:14.339 Where the sixth said passion 00:06:14.339 --> 00:06:19.339 He says he is passionate about something, so he is passionate about it 00:06:19.339 --> 00:06:24.339 His beloved passion, meaning his love reached the depths of his heart 00:06:24.339 --> 00:06:27.339 As the women said about the dear woman 00:06:27.339 --> 00:06:32.339 He fell in love with her and there are three sayings about it 00:06:32.339 --> 00:06:36.339 One of them is the love that takes over the heart 00:06:36.339 --> 00:06:39.339 So that it obscures it from others 00:06:39.339 --> 00:06:45.339 Al-Kalbi said: His love obscured her heart so that she could not understand anything other than him 00:06:45.339 --> 00:06:49.470 The second is love that reaches inside the heart 00:06:50.470 --> 00:06:52.470 The person who said this said: 00:06:52.470 --> 00:06:59.470 The meaning is that she loved him until his love entered the depths of her heart, that is, inside it 00:06:59.470 --> 00:07:04.500 The third is love that reaches the membrane of the heart 00:07:04.500 --> 00:07:06.500 The endocardium is the membrane of the heart 00:07:06.500 --> 00:07:10.500 If love reaches him, he enters the heart 00:07:10.500 --> 00:07:15.500 Al-Sadi said Al-Shaghaf is a thin skin on the heart 00:07:15.500 --> 00:07:20.600 He says love entered him until it hit the heart 00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:25.600 Some predecessors read her passion for the neglected eye 00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:29.600 The meaning of love is gone by every sect 00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:35.600 He reached his highest levels through it, including the passion of mountains for their peaks 00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.660 This level of love 00:07:38.660 --> 00:07:42.660 She is the one the corrupt man seeks to deliver the girl to 00:07:42.660 --> 00:07:46.660 With his sweet words and his lying actions 00:07:46.660 --> 00:07:49.660 Even if the girl falls into it 00:07:49.660 --> 00:07:53.660 She became his prisoner and he could do whatever he wanted with her 00:07:53.660 --> 00:07:57.660 She responds to him like a blind man to his leader 00:07:57.660 --> 00:07:59.660 If its purpose is fulfilled 00:07:59.660 --> 00:08:03.660 He threw it away and moved on to another one 00:08:03.660 --> 00:08:05.660 This is a lesson for every girl 00:08:05.660 --> 00:08:09.660 Do not let anyone other than her husband enter her heart 00:08:09.660 --> 00:08:13.660 She should not give this degree of love to anyone other than her husband 00:08:13.660 --> 00:08:17.860 The consequences of this will be dire for her 00:08:17.860 --> 00:08:19.860 The third matter 00:08:19.860 --> 00:08:25.860 They described her as being in clear error with no concealment or resemblance 00:08:25.860 --> 00:08:28.860 Ibn Green Al-Tabari, may God have mercy on him, said 00:08:28.860 --> 00:08:35.860 Say, “Let us see the wife of the Mighty One in her evasion of her youth from himself.” 00:08:35.860 --> 00:08:37.860 His love overcame her 00:08:37.860 --> 00:08:41.860 There is a mistake in the action and an intentional wrongdoing of the path 00:08:41.860 --> 00:08:44.860 It is clear to those who contemplate it and know it 00:08:44.860 --> 00:08:48.860 It is a misguidance and a mistake that is neither correct nor valid 00:08:48.860 --> 00:08:51.860 Al-Taher Ibn Ashour, may God have mercy on him, said 00:08:51.860 --> 00:08:55.860 Misguidance here is a violation of the right path 00:08:55.860 --> 00:08:59.860 That is, she is captivated by the love of this girl 00:08:59.860 --> 00:09:04.950 This is a ruling on her part that she is in clear error 00:09:04.950 --> 00:09:10.950 Based on her disgraceful behavior and lack of respect for her status in society 00:09:10.950 --> 00:09:16.950 Among the passion that struck her heart was her love for her boy, Joseph, peace be upon him 00:09:16.950 --> 00:09:23.049 Thus, society, even if it is corrupt, judges wrongful behavior 00:09:23.049 --> 00:09:29.049 Which all rational people realize, even if they fall into it 00:09:29.049 --> 00:09:35.049 But was the women’s criticism of the wife of the dear with the intention of advising her? 00:09:35.049 --> 00:09:38.049 Or with the intention of denying it 00:09:38.049 --> 00:09:42.049 Or is there another purpose behind this statement? 00:09:42.049 --> 00:09:44.269 For the rest of the talk 00:09:44.269 --> 00:09:48.269 We will continue in an upcoming meeting, God willing 00:09:48.269 --> 00:09:54.039 The story of Joseph and the wife of Al-Aziz
