اَخْبَرَنَا وَکِیْعٌ، نَا رَافِعُ بْنُ الْجُمَحِیِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ اَبِیْ مُلَیْکَةَ قَالَ: سُئِلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ مَا بَلَغَ مِنْ هَمِّ یُوْسُفَ؟ قَالَ: حَلَّ الْهَمْیَانَ فَنُوْدِیَ فَلَمْ یُسْمَعْ، فَقِیْلَ لَهٗ: یَا ابْنَ یَعْقُوْبَ: أَتُرِیْدُ اَنْ تَزْنِیَ، فَتَکُوْنَ کَالطَّیْرِ، یَنْتِفُ رِیْشَههٗ فَلَا رِیْشَ لَهٗ.
Ibn Abi Mulaykah narrated: Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) was asked about the "incident" of Yusuf (peace be upon him), what was it? (To what extent did it reach?) He replied: He had untied his waistband, then a voice was called out to him which was not heard, so it was said to him: O son of Yaqub! Do you intend to commit adultery? You will become like that bird which plucks out its own feathers and then has no feathers left.
