எவர்கள் கற்புள்ள பெண்கள் மீது அவதூறு கூறி (அதை நிரூபிக்க) நான்கு சாட்சிகளைக் கொண்டு வரவில்லையோ, அவர்களை நீங்கள் எண்பது கசையடி அடியுங்கள்; பின்னர் அவர்களது சாட்சியத்தை எக்காலத்திலும் ஏற்றுக் கொள்ளாதீர்கள் நிச்சயமாக அவர்கள்தான் தீயவர்கள்.

තවද පතිවත රකින කාන්තාවන්ට චෝදනා එල්ල කොට පසුව සාක්ෂිකරුවන් සිව් දෙනෙකු ඔවුහු රැගෙන නො ආවේ නම් එවිට නුඹලා ඔවුනට කසපහරවල් අසූවක් පහර දෙනු. කිසිවිටෙක ඔවුන්ගෙන් කිසිදු සාක්ෂියක් නුඹලා නො පිළිගනු. තවද ඔවුහු මය පාපතරයෝ.

جو لوگ پاک دامن عورتوں پر زنا کی تہمت لگائیں پھر چار گواه نہ پیش کرسکیں تو انہیں اسی کوڑے لگاؤ اور کبھی بھی ان کی گواہی قبول نہ کرو۔ یہ فاسق لوگ ہیں.

Tafsir of 24:4

The Prescribed Punishment for slandering Chaste Women This Ayah states the prescribed punishment for making false accusations against chaste women, i.e., those who are free, adult and chaste. If the person who is falsely accused is a man, the same punishment of flogging also applies. If the accuser produces evidence that what he is saying is true, then the punishment does not apply. Allah said: ثُمَّ لَمْ يَأْتُواْ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَآءَ فَاجْلِدُوهُمْ ثَمَانِينَ جَلْدَةً وَلاَ تَقْبَلُواْ لَهُمْ شَهَادَةً أَبَداً وَأُوْلَئِكَ هُمُ الْفَسِقُونَ (and produce not four witnesses, flog them with eighty stripes, and reject their testimony forever. They indeed are the rebellious.) If the accuser cannot prove that what he is saying is true, then three rulings apply to him: (firstly) that he should be flogged with eighty stripes, (secondly) that his testimony should be rejected forever, and (thirdly) that he should be labelled as a rebellious who is not of good character, whether in the sight of Allah or of mankind.…
