EnglishSaheeh International
And when they commit an immorality, they say, "We found our fathers doing it, and Allāh has ordered us to do it." Say, "Indeed, Allāh does not order immorality. Do you say about Allāh that which you do not know?"

(நம்பிக்கையில்லாத) அவர்கள் ஒரு மானக்கேடான காரியத்தைச் செய்து விட்டால், "எங்கள் மூதாதையர்களை இதன் மீதே கண்டோம்; இன்னும் அல்லாஹ் எங்களை அதைக்கொண்டே ஏவினான்" என்று சொல்கிறார்கள். "(அப்படியல்ல!) நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் மானக்கேடான செயல்களைச் செய்யக் கட்டளையிடமாட்டான் - நீங்கள் அறியாததை அல்லாஹ்வின் மீது பொய்யாகக் கூறுகிறீர்களா?" என்று (நபியே!) நீர் கேட்பீராக.

ඔවුන් යම් අශීලාචාර දෙයක් කළ විට ‘අපගේ මුතුන්මිත්තන් ඒ මත සිටිනු අපි දුටුවෙමු. තවද අල්ලාහ් ඒ ගැන අපට අණ කර ඇත’ යැයි පැවසුවෝ ය. නියත වශයෙන් ම අල්ලාහ් අශීලාචාර දෑ අණ නො කරන්නේ ය. නුඹලා නොදන්නා දෑ අල්ලාහ් මත (ගොතා) පවසන්නෙහු ද? යැයි (නබිවරය!) නුඹ පවසනු.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
اور وه لوگ جب کوئی فحش کام کرتے ہیں تو کہتے ہیں کہ ہم نے اپنے باپ دادا کو اسی طریق پر پایا ہے اور اللہ نے بھی ہم کو یہی بتایا ہے۔ آپ کہہ دیجیئے کہ اللہ تعالیٰ فحش بات کی تعلیم نہیں دیتا، کیا اللہ کے ذمہ ایسی بات لگاتے ہو جس کی تم سند نہیں رکھتے؟

かれらは淫らなことをする時,「わたしたちは祖先が行うのを見た。またアッラーがこれをわたしたちに命じられた。」と言う。言ってやるがいい。「アッラーは決して淫らなことを命じられない。あなたがたはアッラーに就いて,知りもしないことをロにするのか。」
ChineseMa Jian
当他们做了丑事的时候,他们说:我们发现我们的祖先是这样做的。真主也是命令我们这样做的。你说:真主不命令人做丑事。难道你们假借真主的名义而妄言你们自己所不知道的事情吗?

Tafsir of 7:28

Disbelievers commit Sins and claim that Allah commanded Them to do so! Mujahid said, "The idolators used to go around the House (Ka`bah) in Tawaf while naked, saying, `We perform Tawaf as our mothers gave birth to us.' The woman would cover her sexual organ with something saying, `Today, some or all of it will appear, but whatever appears from it, I do not allow it (it is not for adultery or for men to enjoy looking at!)."' Allah sent down the Ayah, وَإِذَا فَعَلُواْ فَحِشَةً قَالُواْ وَجَدْنَا عَلَيْهَآ ءَابَاءَنَا وَاللَّهُ أَمَرَنَا بِهَا (And when they commit a Fahishah (sin), they say: "We found our fathers doing it, and Allah has commanded it for us.")7:28 I say, the Arabs, with the exception of the Quraysh, used to perform Tawaf naked. They claimed they would not make Tawaf while wearing the clothes that they disobeyed Allah in. As for the Quraysh, known as Al-Hums, they used to perform Tawaf in their regular clothes. Whoever among the Arabs borrowed a garment from one of Al-Hums, he would wear it while in Tawaf. And whoever wore a new garment, would discard it and none would wear it after him on completion of Tawaf.…
