سمي اليهود بالجيفة وذلك لأن نساء اليهود ناموا في قبور أزواجهم بعدما عاقبهم الله، فحملوا منهم واصبحت رائحتهم مثل رائحة الجيفة.
وهذا ما يقال عنهم، والله أعلم.
The Jews were called “al-Jeefah” because it is said that Jewish women slept with their dead husbands and became pregnant, resulting in a foul odor emanating from them resembling that of a corpse. This belief originated from a punishment inflicted by God. This reputation has been associated with them, although it is ultimately known only to God.
