Tafsir · 12:31

Al-Mukhtasar

When the minister's wife heard of their disapproval and gossip about her, she invited them to come and see Joseph so that they would excuse her. She prepared for them a place with cushions and pillows and gave each one of the women a knife to cut food. She then told Joseph (peace be upon him): Go out to them! When they saw him, they were taken aback by his beauty and stunned by his handsomeness. As a result, they cut their hands with knives meant for cutting food and said: Allah is free of faults! This boy is not human. The beauty he possesses is not found in human beings. He can only be one of the noble angels.
