Versículo: 35

ثُمَّ بَدَا لَهُم مِّنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا رَأَوُاْ ٱلۡأٓيَٰتِ لَيَسۡجُنُنَّهُۥ حَتَّىٰ حِينٖ

(35) Then it appeared to them, after they saw the signs, that they should jail him for a while^[2719].

[2719] This, along with the earlier verdict of the Chief Minister when he hushed up the matter and asked Joseph (عليه السلام) to simply forget about it and his wife just to feel some sort of regret, gives a glimpse into the workings of high societies; they allow for nothing that threatens their political aspirations and gains and a spouse’s extramarital amorous adventures is one such singularity. Here, upon seeing this potential threat, now that the affair had been publicly noted, the Chief Minister and his aides decided to ‘sweep it under the rug’ and throw Joseph (عليه السلام) into jail, if only for a while, until there was no more interest in the matter (cf. al-Wāḥidī, al-Basīṭ).
