﴿ قَالُوا۟ تَٱللَّهِ تَفْتَؤُا۟ تَذْكُرُ يُوسُفَ حَتَّىٰ تَكُونَ حَرَضًا أَوْ تَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْهَٰلِكِينَ ﴾

They said ‘By God you will never cease remembering Joseph until you are consumed on the verge of perishing on account of your illness it haradan ‘consumed’ is a verbal noun equally applicable to one person or more or you are of those who perish’ of the dead.
