Surah Yusuf (Joseph), Verse 31

فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ بِمَكْرِهِنَّ اَرْسَلَتْ اِلَیْهِنَّ وَاَعْتَدَتْ لَهُنَّ مُتَّكَاً وَّاٰتَتْ كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِّنْهُنَّ سِكِّیْنًا وَّقَالَتِ اخْرُجْ عَلَیْهِنَّ فَلَمَّا رَاَیْنَهٗۤ اَكْبَرْنَهٗ وَقَطَّعْنَ اَیْدِیَهُنَّ وَقُلْنَ حَاشَ لِلّٰهِ مَا هٰذَا بَشَرًا اِنْ هٰذَاۤ اِلَّا مَلَكٌ كَرِیْمٌ ۟

When she heard of their malicious talk, she sent for them and prepared a banquet for them: she gave each of them a knife: and she said (to Joseph), "Come out before them." When they saw him, they did extol him, and (in their amazement) cut their hands: they said, "Allah preserve us! no mortal is this! this is none other than a noble angel!"
