The Holy Quran 24:26 — Surah An-Nur

Arabic text

ٱلْخَبِيثَـٰتُ لِلْخَبِيثِينَ وَٱلْخَبِيثُونَ لِلْخَبِيثَـٰتِ ۖ وَٱلطَّيِّبَـٰتُ لِلطَّيِّبِينَ وَٱلطَّيِّبُونَ لِلطَّيِّبَـٰتِ ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ مُبَرَّءُونَ مِمَّا يَقُولُونَ ۖ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَرِيمٌ

Translation

(Allaah concludes the discussion of the slander by stating a general principle. He says,) Impure (evil and unchaste) women are for impure men and impure men are for impure women. (Similarly,) Pure (good and chaste) women are for pure men and pure men are for pure women. (It is therefore impossible for Aaisha رضي الله تعالى عنها to have committed adultery because she was the wife of the purest and most chaste human. She was therefore a chaste woman.) These people (accused of adultery) are innocent of what the slanderers say. For them (those accused) is forgiveness (pardon) and a bounteous reward.

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

كل خبيث من الرجال والنساء والأقوال والأفعال مناسب للخبيث وموافق له، وكل طيِّب من الرجال والنساء والأقوال والأفعال مناسب للطيب وموافق له، والطيبون والطيبات مبرؤون مما يرميهم به الخبيثون من السوء، لهم من الله مغفرة تستغرق الذنوب، ورزق كريم في الجنة.
