Surat Yusuf (32-33)

{قَالَتْ فَذَلِكُنَّ الَّذِي لُمْتُنَّنِي فِيهِ وَلَقَدْ رَاوَدتُّهُ عَن نَّفْسِهِ فَاسَتَعْصَمَ وَلَئِن لَّمْ يَفْعَلْ مَا آمُرُهُ لَيُسْجَنَنَّ وَلَيَكُوناً مِّنَ الصَّاغِرِينَ} (يوسف : 32)

32- She said to them: If the matter was as you said, the man whom you have seen now and were fascinated by his beauty is the one whom you blamed me for being fascinated by him. He had fascinated me as he fascinated you and I tried to practice fornication with him but he refused, and if he does not comply, he shall be punished by imprisonment and shall be of the humiliated.

{قَالَ رَبِّ السِّجْنُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا يَدْعُونَنِي إِلَيْهِ وَإِلاَّ تَصْرِفْ عَنِّي كَيْدَهُنَّ أَصْبُ إِلَيْهِنَّ وَأَكُن مِّنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ} (يوسف : 33)

33- Yusuf (peace be upon him) spoke to his Lord secretly after he had known the insistence of Al `Aziz's wife on fornication and after the interference of the palace's women to make him practice fornication with her, he said: O Lord, imprisonment is better for me than fornication that leads to Your Wrath and painful torment. If you do not direct away their plot and mockery and leave me to myself, I shall incline to them and be one of the sinful.

It is the call of the person who know the nature of his humanity who is not tempted by his infallibility, so he is in dire need to Allah's Care to protect him from trials and temptations, said the author of Azh-Zhilal.
