فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ بِمَكْرِهِنَّ اَرْسَلَتْ اِلَیْهِنَّ وَاَعْتَدَتْ لَهُنَّ مُتَّكَــًٔا وَاٰتَتْ كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ سِكّٖینًا وَقَالَتِ اخْرُجْ عَلَیْهِنَّۚ فَلَمَّا رَاَیْنَهُٓ اَكْبَرْنَهُ وَقَطَّعْنَ اَیْدِیَهُنَّ وَقُلْنَ حَاشَ لِلّٰهِ مَا هٰذَا بَشَرًاؕ اِنْ هٰذَٓا اِلَّا مَلَكٌ كَرٖیمٌ

And when she heard of their sly talk, she sent to them and prepared for them a cushioned couch (to lie on at the feast) and gave to every one of them a knife and said (to Joseph): Come out unto them! And when they saw him they exalted him and cut their hands, exclaiming: Allah Blameless! This is no a human being. This is not other than some gracious angel
