Is a disease right? So yesterday i was watching Dr. OZ and he had a young lady who tested positive for Covid-19.
She was asked how u feel? And she said, she is feeling fine, she is just worried about how she will be judged by people, especially around my fellow university students. Oz was struck how this woman was worried about people than this deadly disease.
Then my question was answered which i had in the qiisah of Prophet Yusuf in the Quran.
My question was simple. Why the woman who tried to Seduce Prophet Yusuf pbuh was not harshly judged in the Quran? (The women who gossiped & laughed about her attempt to seduce young prophet boy were more judged or put on the spot than the woman who actually committed a sin)
In the Quran, there is a detailed narration which is very rare, the narration about how the wife of the Aziz--leader of Pharaoh who wanted to seduce Prophet Yusuf pbuh by force and he ran away from her. The women of the village started laughing at her about her trying to seduce a young lad, her servant. In the qisaah recorded in length in the holly book astonishes me. She invited the same women, gave them apple and knifes to cut and let loose the prophet pbuh walk in front of them assuming in beautiful garnets. Quran records, or Allaah swt testifies the women cutting their hands being struck by the beauty of Prophet Yusuf pbuh.
I always asked myself --why are we not getting the narration of how guilty this woman was of a great sin. Where are Her actions in details following the testifying of false accusation by denying she did the act at all in the first place?
Then it dawn on me--that Allaah swt accepts her action as a sin, (i would hope- Allaahu yaclum) but the bigger sin is the laughing/mocking/gossiping of the women in the Aziz's wife society. That collective society judgement & Shaming. These gossiping women were shown u r not better than her. By cutting their hands, in starring at the little prophet boy, it humanizes the Aziz's wife and shows her in a sympathetic eyes/light . But more importantly, the gossiping women are shown here as weak & sinful; that they can become sinners given the opportunity.
So in essence the moral of the story is collective society judgement is not good. God might see you in a harsh way, more than the sinner among-st you.
