Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There was an Israeli man called Juraij, while he was praying, his mother came and called him, but he did not respond to her call. He said (to himself) whether he should continue the prayer or reply to his mother. She came to him the second time and called him and said, "O Allah! Do not let him die until he sees the faces of prostitutes." Juraij used to live in a hermitage. A woman said that she would entice Juraij, so she went to him and presented herself (for an evil act) but he refused. She then went to a shepherd and allowed him to commit an illegal sexual intercourse with her and later she gave birth to a boy. She alleged that the baby was from Juraij. The people went to Juraij and broke down his hermitage, pulled him out of it and abused him. He performed ablution and offered the prayer, then he went to the male (baby) and asked him; "O boy! Who is your father?" The baby replied that his father was the shepherd. The people said that they would build for him a hermitage of gold but Juraij asked them to make it of mud only."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ رَجُلٌ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ يُقَالُ لَهُ جُرَيْجٌ يُصَلِّي فَجَاءَتْهُ أُمُّهُ فَدَعَتْهُ فَأَبَى أَنْ يُجِيبَهَا فَقَالَ أُجِيبُهَا أَوْ أُصَلِّي ثُمَّ أَتَتْهُ فَقَالَتِ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تُمِتْهُ حَتَّى تُرِيَهُ الْمُومِسَاتِ وَكَانَ جُرَيْجٌ فِي صَوْمَعَتِهِ فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ لأَفْتِنَنَّ جُرَيْجًا فَتَعَرَّضَتْ لَهُ فَكَلَّمَتْهُ فَأَبَى فَأَتَتْ رَاعِيًا فَأَمْكَنَتْهُ مِنْ نَفْسِهَا فَوَلَدَتْ غُلاَمًا فَقَالَتْ هُوَ مِنْ جُرَيْجٍ فَأَتَوْهُ وَكَسَرُوا صَوْمَعَتَهُ فَأَنْزَلُوهُ وَسَبُّوهُ فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَلَّى ثُمَّ أَتَى الْغُلاَمَ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَبُوكَ يَا غُلاَمُ قَالَ الرَّاعِي قَالُوا نَبْنِي صَوْمَعَتَكَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ قَالَ لاَ إِلاَّ مِنْ طِينٍ  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "None spoke in cradle but three: (The first was) Jesus, (the second was), there a man from Bani Israel called Juraij. While he was offering his prayers, his mother came and called him. He said (to himself), 'Shall I answer her or keep on praying?" (He went on praying) and did not answer her, his mother said, "O Allah! Do not let him die till he sees the faces of prostitutes." So while he was in his hermitage, a lady came and sought to seduce him, but he refused. So she went to a shepherd and presented herself to him to commit illegal sexual intercourse with her and then later she gave birth to a child and claimed that it belonged to Juraij. The people, therefore, came to him and dismantled his hermitage and expelled him out of it and abused him. Juraij performed the ablution and offered prayer, and then came to the child and said, 'O child! Who is your father?' The child replied, 'The shepherd.' (After hearing this) the people said, 'We shall rebuild your hermitage of gold,' but he said, 'No, of nothing but mud.'(The third was the hero of the following story) A lady from Bani Israel was nursing her child at her breast when a handsome rider passed by her. She said, 'O Allah ! Make my child like him.' On that the child left her breast, and facing the rider said, 'O Allah! Do not make me like him.' The child then started to suck her breast again. (Abu Huraira further said, "As if I were now looking at the Prophet ﷺ sucking his finger (in way of demonstration.") After a while the people passed by, with a lady slave and she (i.e. the child's mother) said, 'O Allah! Do not make my child like this (slave girl)!, On that the child left her breast and said, 'O Allah! Make me like her.' When she asked why, the child replied, 'The rider is one of the tyrants while this slave girl is falsely accused of theft and illegal sexual intercourse."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Only three people spoke in their cradles: Jesus, the son of Mary, and a man from the children of Israel named Jurayj. He was a devoted worshiper who built a place of worship and prayed in it. The children of Israel mentioned the worship of Jurayj one day, and one of them said, "If you wish, we can tempt him." They agreed, and a woman came to him and tried to seduce him, but he did not pay attention to her. So, she went to a shepherd who used to take his sheep to the foundation of Jurayj's place of worship, and she had sexual intercourse with him and became pregnant. When she gave birth to a son, the people asked her, "Who is the father?" She said, "Jurayj." So, they came to him, insulted and beat him, and destroyed his place of worship. He asked them, "What is your problem?" They said, "You committed adultery with this woman, and she gave birth to a son." He asked, "Where is the child?" They said, "Here he is." He stood up, prayed, and supplicated to Allah. Then he approached the child and stabbed him with his finger, saying, "By Allah, O boy, who is your father?" The child replied, "I am the son of the shepherd." Then they went to Jurayj and started kissing him, saying, "We will rebuild your place of worship with gold." He replied, "I have no need for that, rebuild it with mud, just as it was." Abu Hurairah said, "It is as if I am seeing the Messenger of Allah ﷺ narrating this story, placing his finger in his mouth and sucking on it." Then, he passed by a woman who was being beaten. She said, "O Allah, do not make my son like her." He left her breasts and approached the woman, saying, "O Allah, do not make me like her." Then he passed by another woman who was also being beaten. Again, he left the woman's breasts and said, "O Allah, make me like her." He said, "O my people, the rider with the sign is a tyrant among the tyrants, and this woman, they accuse her of wrongdoing, stealing, and she says, 'Allah is sufficient for me.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Only three spoke in the cradle: Jesus, son of Mary, and the companion of Jurayj. Jurayj was a man among the Children of Israel, called Jurayj. He built a hermitage and worshipped Allah in it. One day, his mother came and called him, but he did not respond to her. Then she came to him a second day, and called him, but he did not respond to her. Then she came to him a third day, and said, 'My prayer and my mother, O Allah, do not let him die until he has seen the faces of the adulteresses.' Then, the children of Israel gathered one day, and spoke ill of Jurayj. They said, 'If you want us to think well of him, test him.' They said, 'We have already thought about it.' So she went and appeared before Jurayj, but he did not respond to her. Then she went to a shepherd who used to seek shelter in the hermitage of Jurayj with his sheep, and she tempted him. She became pregnant and gave birth to a boy. She said, 'He is from Jurayj.' So some people from the Children of Israel came and beat him, insulted him, and condemned his hermitage. He asked them, 'What is your problem?' They said, 'You fornicated with this woman, and she gave birth to a child.' He said, 'Where is the child?' They said, 'Here he is.'"
