Asiah was the Pharoah's wife.She was very different from him.Asiah worshiped Allah but the Pharoah called himself god and forced everyone to worship him.
Despite their different beliefs, Asiah remained obedient to the Pharoah because he was her husband . But each day in the palace was a torment to her.She really hated to see Minister Hamman and his men worshipping the Pharoah.
When the Pharoah pushed Mashitah and her family into the boiling pot, he said to Asiah; " I hope you learn the punishment for a woman who disobey God."
Asiah quickly retorted:"Damn you oh Pharoah in Allah's wrath!"How shocked was the Pharoah to listen to her beloved wifes's words.
Pharoah then called Asiahs's parents to talk to her so that she may change her mind. Despite all efforts,Asiah would not change her stand to worship
someone other than Allah , the God of the Universe."
"What did she tell you?" yelled the Pharoah to Asiah's mother. Before she could answer,
Asiah cut in:" I will not sacrifice my faith in Allah , my God and your God, and the God of all creations."
Upon hearing her reply, the Pharoah got even angrier. He instructed his guards to tie Asiah's hands to a pillar in the palace.She was then beaten with a rod. Though beaten mercilessly , Asiah remained calm.
Her lips never stopped praying:"O God, build me a palace by Your side in Heaven , and protect me from the Pharoah and his evil people,"Asiah finally died as a martyr.
