The Shaykh : Okay, leprosy is a contagious disease that causes sores in the limbs, and it most often affects the delicate parts of the body, such as the armpits and the groin, and the like. It is a disease that causes the limbs to ulcerate and spreads to the rest of the body until it kills the person. It spreads quickly and disseminates rapidly. For this reason, the scholars said that it is obligatory for the ruler, or whoever acts in his place, to isolate the lepers in a specific place so that their leprosy does not spread to the healthy. This is what is known to us in the present time as quarantine. What is it? Health quarantine. Do you know now, or not? So, who is the leper?
