Tafsir
This incident was heard however it was heard. Some of the women in the city said that Zeliha, the wife of Aziz, wanted to have her way with her young man's soul. This is what the verse means by the soul of her young man: They spoke in the sense of her young man, that is, her son, because they considered the person she raised with her as their son. In this respect, his infatuation has penetrated his heart, and we see him in a clear deviation. I mean, would a person be inclined towards the child that he raised with him with sensual and carnal feelings? They say people who do this are perverted people.
What is said in the video
Some women in the city said: the Aziz's wife, it is said, seeks to seduce her young man.
Love for Joseph has penetrated her heart. We truly see her in clear aberration, they say. Whom? The Aziz's wife. Hearing this, the Aziz's wife will one day invite the women. We will explain it in order, inshallah. Somehow this incident became known; it spread. Some women in the city say that the Aziz's wife, Zuleikha, seeks to seduce her young man. That this verse says "her young man" is because, regarding the one raised in her home as their child, they meant young man as in child when they spoke. In this regard: love has penetrated her heart, we truly see her in clear aberration. That is, a person who with nafs-driven and lustful feelings inclines toward the child raised in their home — people who do this are aberrant people, they say, in this way.
Among the Arabs, too, the wife of an adopted son they regarded like their own daughter. The wife of their adopted son. This false belief had spread. The wife of Zayd (peace be upon him), the Prophet's son, was also the daughter of the Prophet's paternal aunt. He married her off with his own hand. Zayd — he himself married him off. In this situation Allah Almighty creates events. Zayd begins to complain about his wife. Because his wife constantly said, "I am from a noble family and you are a slave", Zayd (peace be upon him) one day can bear it no longer. He tells the Prophet: I am going to separate now.
Thereupon Allah Almighty, creating the events this way, separating him from his wife, separating her from his adopted son — and the adopted son is not his own child, children are attributed to their fathers, and his wife is not his own daughter, not his own child. And so Allah Almighty — by Allah's command, of course — I mean, through the marriage to Zayd's wife, his aunt's daughter, removes this false belief among the Arabs. Yes, Allah Almighty always creates events so that people explain the verses better — He creates events.
