Those who accuse chaste women, then cannot bring four witnesses, whip them eighty lashes, and do not ever accept their testimony. For these are the immoral.
What does the Qur'an say about false accusation of adultery (qadhf)?
Key findingsEditorial
One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.
- 01 24:4–5 And those who ACCUSE HONOURABLE WOMEN BUT BRING NOT FOUR WITNESSES - scourge them with EIGHTY STRIPES and NEVER AFTERWARD ACCEPT THEIR TESTIMONY - they indeed are evil-doers, save those who afterward repent and make amends. In as ONE PASSAGE because 24:5 is part of the ruling and reopens what 24:4 closes.
- 02 24:11–13 Lo, they who spread the slander are a gang among you... Why did the believers, men and women, when ye heard it, not think good of their own folk and say: it is a manifest untruth? WHY DID THEY NOT PRODUCE FOUR WITNESSES? Since they produce not witnesses, they verily are liars in the sight of God. In as ONE PASSAGE because it is the episode the ruling came out of, and because it puts the burden of proof beyond doubt. ALSO CARRIED by What does the Qur'an say about verifying news before acting on it?, with a different reason there.
- 03 24:6–9 As for those who accuse their wives but have no witnesses except themselves - let the testimony of one of them be four testimonies, swearing by God that he is of those who speak the truth... And it shall avert the punishment from her if she bear witness four times that he is of those who lie. In as ONE PASSAGE because it is the one procedure the text gives where the two parties are husband and wife, and because the woman's oath is given the same weight and the same number as the man's.
- 04 4:15 As for those of your women who are guilty of lewdness, CALL TO WITNESS FOUR OF YOU AGAINST THEM. In because it is the earlier statement of the same evidentiary bar. ALSO CARRIED by the study Does the Qur'an command stoning for adultery?, with a different reason there.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
This is one of the places where the Qur'an is most specific, and the specifics run in an unexpected direction.
24:4 penalises the ACCUSER. Anyone who accuses a chaste woman and cannot produce four witnesses receives eighty lashes - and, permanently, THEIR TESTIMONY IS NEVER AGAIN ACCEPTED. That second penalty is the heavier one: a person disqualified as a witness for life.
Set that beside the hundred lashes prescribed at 24:2 for the offence itself - rendered by the study Does the Qur'an command stoning for adultery?, not on this page, and the arithmetic is striking. Eighty for the failed accusation against a hundred for the proven act, plus a lifetime disability the guilty party does not incur. Bringing the charge and failing is nearly as costly as the offence.
24:5 then reopens it: SAVE THOSE WHO AFTERWARD REPENT AND MAKE AMENDS. The pattern that appears at 5:39 for theft, a verse not rendered on this page, appears here too.
24:11-13 is the episode behind the ruling, and it supplies the standard directly: WHY DID THEY NOT PRODUCE FOUR WITNESSES? SINCE THEY PRODUCE NOT WITNESSES, THEY VERILY ARE LIARS IN THE SIGHT OF GOD. Absent the proof, the text does not record the matter as unproven; it names the accusers liars.
24:6-9 handles the case where the accuser is the husband and there are no other witnesses. He swears four times, and she may swear four times in return - AND HER OATH AVERTS THE PUNISHMENT FROM HER. The two testimonies are given equal number and equal effect.
That last point is worth setting beside the study Does the Qur'an say a woman is worth half a man?, which finds no general ratio of testimony in the text. Here, in the one procedure where a woman's word is set directly against a man's, they are equal.
Scope of this study
This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.
What this study does not answer, and which source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.
What this rests on
Opens with 24:4–5, widening across 4 passages in all.
Easy-read
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

And those who accuse honourable women but bring not four witnesses, scourge them (with) eighty stripes and never (afterward) accept their testimony - They indeed are evil-doers
but those who cast (imputations) on chaste women and then do not bring four witnesses, scourge them with eighty stripes, and do not receive any testimony of theirs ever, for these are the workers of abomination
They who defame virtuous women, and bring not four witnesses, scourge them with fourscore stripes, and receive ye not their testimony for ever, for these are perverse persons
But as to those who accuse women of reputation of whoredom, and produce not four witnesses of the fact, scourge them with fourscore stripes, and receive not their testimony for ever; for such are infamous prevaricators

24:4 Ata që akuzojnë gratë e dëlira (për kurvëri) dhe nuk sjellin katër dëshmitarë, rrihni me tetëdhjetë të rëna dhe mos ua pranoni kurrë dëshminë, sepse ata janë të pabindur,
24:5 përveç atyre që më pas pendohen e përmirësohen. Allahu është njëmend Falës i Madh e Mëshirëplotë.
24:4 আর যারা সচ্চরিত্র নারীর প্রতি অপবাদ আরোপ করে(৩), তারপর তারা চারজন সাক্ষী নিয়ে না আসে, তাহলে (হে বিচারকগণ!) তোমরা তাদেরকে আশিটি বেত্রাঘাত করো এবং কখনই তাদের সাক্ষ্য গ্রহণ করো না। আর এরাই হলো ফাসিক।

24:5 გარდა იმათისა, ვინც ამის შემდეგ მოინანია [ჩადენილი] და გამოასწორა (თავისი საქციელი). ჭეშმარიტად, ალლაჰი მპატიებელი, შემწყალებელია.
24:4 Und diejenigen, die den ehrbaren Ehefrauen (Untreue) vorwerfen und hierauf nicht vier Zeugen beibringen, so peitscht sie mit achtzig (Peitschen)hieben aus und nehmt von ihnen niemals mehr eine Zeugenaussage an. Und jene sind die (wahren) Frevler!
24:5 Ausgenommen sind diejenigen, die nach alledem bereuen und rechtschaffen werden. So ist Allah gewiss allvergebend und barmherzig.
24:4 Όσο γι' εκείνους που συκοφαντούν τις αγνές γυναίκες για μοιχεία, και δεν φέρνουν τέσσερις μάρτυρες (που είδαν τη μοιχεία ξεκάθαρα, χωρίς καμία αμφιβολία), χτυπήστε τους (ω, κυβερνήτες ή δικαστές) με ογδόντα μαστιγώματα, και μη δέχεστε ποτέ καμία μαρτυρία απ' αυτούς. Πράγματι, εκείνοι είναι οι ανυπάκουοι προς τον Αλλάχ.
24:5 Εκτός απ' εκείνους που στράφηκαν με μεταμέλεια (προς τον Αλλάχ) μετά απ' αυτό (τη συκοφαντία), και διόρθωσαν (τις πράξεις τους), τότε (μπορείτε να δεχτείτε τη μαρτυρία τους σ' άλλα θέματα), πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι Γαφούρ (Αυτός που συγχωρεί τα πάντα) και Ραχείμ (Πολυεύσπλαχνος).

24:5 Кроме тех, которые покаялись после этого и исправились. Воистину, Аллах — прощающий, милующий.
24:4 Они који потворе чедне жене, а потом не докажу то са четири сведока, избичујте их са осамдесет удараца и не примајте никада више њихово сведочење; они су нечасни људи,
24:5 осим оних који се после тога покају и поправе, јер Аллах опрашта грехе и милостив је.
24:4 Na wanaowasingizia wanawake mahashumu, kisha wasilete mashahidi wanne, basi watandikeni bakora themanini, na msiwakubalie ushahidi wao tena. Na hao ndio wapotovu.

24:4 De som anklagar kyska kvinnor [för otukt] utan att kunna frambringa fyra vittnen ska straffas med åttio piskrapp, och deras vittnesmål ska aldrig mer accepteras. De är trotsiga syndare.
24:5 Men de som sedan ångrar sig och gör bättring [ska bli förlåtna]. Gud är ständigt förlåtande, barmhärtig.
24:4 İffetli kadınlara iftira atan, sonra da dört şahit getiremeyen kimselere seksen değnek vurun ve bir daha onların şahitliklerini ebedî olarak kabul etmeyin. İşte onlar fasıkların ta kendileridir.
24:5 Ancak bundan sonra tevbe edenler ve (amellerini) ıslah edenler müstesnadır. Allah çok bağışlayıcı ve merhametlidir.

The translators word this verse differently
Those who perpetrated the slander are a band of you. Do not consider it bad for you, but it is good for you. Each person among them bears his share in the sin. As for him who played the major role-for him is a terrible punishment.
Compare translations (4)
Lo! they who spread the slander are a gang among you. Deem it not a bad thing for you; nay, it is good for you. Unto every man of them (will be paid) that which he hath earned of the sin; and as for him among them who had the greater share therein, his will be an awful doom
Verily, those who bring forward the lie, a band of you,- reckon it not as an evil for you, nay, it is good for you; every man of them shall have what he has earned of sin; and he of them who managed to aggravate it, for him is mighty woe
Of a truth, they who advanced that lie were a large number of you; but regard it not as an evil to you. No, it is an advantage to you. To every man among them shall it be done according to the offence he hath committed; and as to that person among them who took on himself to aggravate it, a sore punishment doth await him
As to the party among you who have published the falsehood concerning Ayesha, think it not to be an evil unto you: On the contrary, it is better for you. Every man of them shall be punished according to the injustice of which he hath been guilty; and he among them who hath undertaken to aggravate the same, shall suffer a grievous punishment

24:11 Në të vërtetë, ata që trilluan shpifjen janë një grup prej jush. Mos e mendoni si të keqe për ju! Përkundrazi, ajo është në të mirën tuaj. Çdonjëri prej tyre do të marrë dënimin për gjynahun që ka bërë, por ai që i priu kësaj (shpifjeje) do të ketë një dënim të madh.
24:12 Përse, vallë, kur besimtarët e besimtaret e dëgjuan atë (shpifje) nuk menduan mirë për njëri-tjetrin e të thoshin: "Kjo është shpifje e qartë"?!
24:13 Po përse nuk sollën katër dëshmitarë! E, meqë nuk sollën dëshmitarë, atëherë ata janë gënjeshtarë para Allahut.
24:11 নিশ্চয় যারা (আয়িশা রা. এর ব্যাপারে অশ্লীল কাজের) অপবাদ রটনা করেছে, তারা তোমাদেরই একটি দল। এটাকে তোমরা তোমাদের জন্য অকল্যাণকর মনে করো না; বরং এটা তোমাদের জন্য কল্যাণকর। (৪) (অপবাদে অংশীদারি) তাদের প্রত্যেকের জন্য রয়েছে, তাদের পাপকাজের অনুরূপ শাস্তি। আর তাদের থেকে যে ব্যক্তি(৫) এ ব্যাপারে প্রধান ভূমিকা পালন করেছে, তার জন্য রয়েছে মহা আযাব।
24:12 যখন তোমরা এ অপবাদ শুনলে, তখন কেনো মু’মিন পুরুষ ও মু’মিন নারীরা তাদের নিজেদের সম্পর্কে ভালো ধারণা পোষণ করলো না এবং বললো না যে, ‘এটা তো সুস্পষ্ট অপবাদ?’
24:13 অপবাদদাতারা কেনো এ ব্যাপারে চারজন সাক্ষী নিয়ে আসলো না? সুতরাং যখন তারা সাক্ষী নিয়ে আসেনি, তখন তারাই আল্লাহর কাছে মিথ্যাবাদী।
24:11 Među vama je bilo onih koji su iznosili potvoru. Vi ne smatrajte to nekim zlom po vas. Ne, to je dobro po vas. Svaki od njih bit će kažnjen prema grijehu koji je zaslužio, a onog od njih koji je to najviše činio čeka patnja velika.
24:12 Zašto, čim ste to čuli, nisu vjernici i vjernice jedni o drugima dobro pomislili i rekli: “Ovo je očita potvora!”
24:13 Zašto nisu četvericu svjedoka doveli? A pošto svjedoke nisu doveli, oni su onda kod Allaha lažljivci.

24:11 ჭეშმარიტად, ისინი, ვინც ეს შეთხზული ცილისწამება მოიტანეს [რომ თითქოს აიშამ, მოციქულის ცოლმა, მრუშობა ჩაიდინა], თქვენგან (ო, მორწმუნენო) წარმოშობილი ჯგუფია. ნუ ჩათვლით ამას [მათ ცილისწამებას] თქვენთვის ბოროტებად; პირიქით, ეს თქვენთვის სიკეთეა [რადგან ამ ამბავს კეთილი დასასრული ექნება და მორწმუნეები ამ განსაცდელში მოთმინებისთვის დიდ საზღაურს მიიღებენ]. თითოეულ მათგანს [იმათგან, ვინც ეს ცილისწამება გაავრცელა] იმ ცოდვის წილი ერგება, რაც მოიხვეჭა. ხოლო იმას, ვინც ამ საქმეში უდიდესი წილი იტვირთა [მთავარი თვალთმაქცი [1]], დიდი სასჯელი ელის (მარადიულ ცხოვრებაში).
24:12 რატომ არ იფიქრეს მორწმუნე კაცებმა და მორწმუნე ქალებმა, როცა ეს [აიშას მრუშობაში დადანაშაულება] მოისმინეს, თავიანთ გულებში კეთილი აზრი და არ თქვეს: «ეს აშკარა შეთხზული ცილისწამებაა?»
24:13 რატომ არ მოიყვანეს [მრუშობის დამბრალებლებმა] ამისი ოთხი მოწმე? ხოლო თუ მოწმეებს არ მოიყვანენ, მაშინ ისინი ალლაჰის წინაშე მატყუარები არიან.
24:11 Wahrlich, diejenigen, die die ungeheuerliche Lüge vorgebracht haben, sind eine (gewisse) Schar von euch. Meint nicht, es sei schlecht für euch; nein! Vielmehr ist es gut für euch. Jedem von ihnen wird zuteil, was er an Sünde erworben hat. Und für denjenigen unter ihnen, der den Hauptanteil daran auf sich genommen hat, wird es eine gewaltige Strafe geben.
24:12 Hätten doch, als ihr es hörtet, die gläubigen Männer und Frauen eine gute Meinung voneinander gehabt und gesagt: „Das ist (ja) eine deutliche Lüge!“
24:13 Hätten sie doch darüber vier Zeugen beigebracht! Da sie aber die Zeugen nicht beigebracht haben, so sind jene bei Allah die Lügner.
24:11 Πράγματι, αυτοί που έφεραν το ψέμα [ενάντια της συζύγου του Προφήτη, της μητέρας των πιστών, Αΐσα, που χάθηκε από το στρατό, και τη βρήκε ο Σαφουάν μπιν Αλ-Μουάταλ, -που τον έβαλε ο Προφήτης πίσω από τον στρατό να βρει τα χαμένα αντικείμενα-. Και ο οποίος της έδωσε την καμήλα του καθώς αυτός περπατούσε οδηγώντας την καμήλα, μέχρι τη Μαντίνα, χωρίς να της μιλήσει, ούτε μία λέξη], είναι μία ομάδα από σας (όπως ο επικεφαλής των υποκριτών, ο Αμπντ Αλλάχ μπιν Ουμπάι μπιν Σαλούλ που τους συκοφάντησε, και οι τρεις που επανέλαβαν τη συκοφαντία του και έπειτα στράφηκαν με μεταμέλεια, ο Χασσάν μπιν Θάμπιτ, η Χάμνα μπινετ Τζάχς, ο Μίσταχ μπιν Ουθάθα). Μη νομίζετε ότι αυτό (το ψέμα που έφεραν) είναι κακό για σας, αλλά είναι καλό για σας (για να φανούν οι αληθινοί πιστοί). Για καθέναν τους (η τιμωρία για) αυτό που φορτώθηκε από (εκείνη) την αμαρτία. Και εκείνος (ο μπιν Σαλούλ) που έχει φορτωθεί με το μεγαλύτερο μέρος εκείνης της αμαρτίας (και ξεκίνησε αυτή τη συκοφαντία), γι' αυτόν θα υπάρχει ένα τρομερό μαρτύριο (στη Μέλλουσα Ζωή).
24:12 Θα έπρεπε όταν την ακούσατε (τη συκοφαντία), να πίστευαν οι πιστοί και οι πιστές για τον εαυτό τους το καλό (δηλ. την αθωότητα της μητέρας των πιστών, της Αΐσα, και του ευσεβή συντρόφου, Σαφουάν μπιν Αλ-Μουάταλ), και να έλεγαν: «Αυτό είναι ένα ξεκάθαρο ψέμα.» [Όπως έκανε ο Άμπου Αϊούμπ Αλ-Ανσάρι όταν τον ρώτησε η σύζυγό του αν άκουσε για τη συκοφαντία, της είπε: «Ναι! Πράγματι αυτό είναι ψέμα. Θα έκανες ποτέ κάτι τέτοιο;» Του είπε: «Όχι.» Της είπε: «Μα τον Αλλάχ! Η Αΐσα είναι καλύτερη από σένα!»].
24:13 Θα έφερναν τέσσερις μάρτυρες γι' αυτό (το ψέμα); Αν δεν φέρνουν τους μάρτυρες (και ποτέ δε θα τους φέρουν), τότε εκείνοι είναι ενώπιον του Αλλάχ, οι ψεύτες.
24:11 निःसंदेह जो लोग झूठ गढ़[11] लाए हैं, वे तुम्हारे ही भीतर के एक समूह हैं। तुम उसे अपने लिए बुरा मत समझो, बल्कि वह तुम्हारे लिए बेहतर[12] है। उनमें से प्रत्येक आदमी के लिए गुनाह में से उतना ही भाग है, जितना उसने कमाया। और उनमें से जो उसके बड़े भाग का ज़िम्मेदार[13] बना, उसके लिए बहुत बड़ी यातना है।
24:12 क्यों न जब तुमने उसे सुना, तो ईमान वाले पुरुषों तथा ईमान वाली स्त्रियों ने अपने बारे में अच्छा गुमान किया और कहा कि यह स्पष्ट मिथ्यारोपण है?
24:13 वे इसपर चार गवाह क्यों न लाए? फिर जब वे गवाह नहीं लाए, तो निःसंदेह अल्लाह के निकट वही झूठे हैं।
24:11 In verità quelli che hanno portato e hanno difeso le menzogne peggiori sono un gruppo tra voi: non considerate ciò un danno per voi, ma un vantaggio. Ma ognuno di loro dovrà rispondere dei peccati da lui commessi, e chi si insuperbisce avrà una grande punizione.
24:12 Se, quando avete ascoltato, i credenti e le credenti avessero pensato bene gli uni degli altri, e avessero detto: «Questa è una chiara bugia!»
24:13 Se avessero portato quattro testimoni! Se non portano i testimoni, sono loro, davanti ad Allāh, i bugiardi.
24:11 11. Iš tiesų, tie, kurie paskleidė šmeižtą (apie Aišą (lai Allahas būna ja patenkintas), Pranašo ﷺ žmoną) yra grupė iš jūsų tarpo. Nelaikykit to blogu sau. Ne, tai gerai jums. Kiekvienam žmogui iš jų bus sumokėta tai, ką jis užsidirbo už nuodėmę, ir tam iš jų, kurio dalis didesnė tame, jam bus didesnė kančia.
24:12 12. Kodėl tada, tikintieji, vyrai ir moterys, tau išgirdus tai (šmeižtą), negalvojo gerai apie savo pačių žmones ir sakė: „Šis (kaltinimas) yra akivaizdus melas [1]?“
24:13 13. Kodėl jie nepateikė keturių liudininkų? Nes jie (šmeižikai) nepateikė liudytojų! Tada Allahui jie yra melagiai.

24:11 Воистину, те, которые пришли с клеветой, — группа из вас. Не считайте это злом для себя: нет, напротив, это — благо для вас. Каждому из них — то, что он снискал из этого греха, а кто из них взял на себя наибольшую долю из этого, тому — великое наказание.
24:12 Почему же, когда вы услышали это, верующие мужчины и верующие женщины не подумали о самих себе хорошее и не сказали: «Это — явная клевета!»?
24:13 Почему же они не привели на это четырёх свидетелей? А если они не привели свидетелей, то такие у Аллаха — они и есть лжецы.
24:11 Међу вама је било оних који су износили потвору. Ви не сматрајте то неким злом по вас; не, то је добро по вас. Сваки од њих биће кажњен према греху који је заслужио, а онога од њих који је то највише радио чека велика патња.
24:12 Зашто, чим сте то чули, верници и вернице нису једни о другима добро помислили и рекли: „Ово је очигледна потвора!“
24:13 Зашто нису довели четворицу сведока? А пошто сведоке нису довели, они су онда код Аллаха лажљивци.
24:11 Hakika wale walioleta uongo ni kundi miongoni mwenu. Msifikiri ni shari kwenu, bali hiyo ni kheri kwenu. Kila mtu katika wao atapata aliyoyachuma katika madhambi. Na yule aliyejitwika sehemu yake kubwa miongoni mwao, atapata adhabu kubwa.
24:12 Kwa nini mlipoisikia habari hii, wanaume Waumini na wanawake Waumini hawakuwadhania wenzao mema, na kusema: Huu ni uzushi dhahiri?
24:13 Kwa nini hawakuleta mashahidi wanne? Na ilivyokuwa hawakuleta mashahidi wanne, basi hao mbele ya Mwenyezi Mungu ni waongo.
24:11 En skara bland er förde den falska anklagelsen vidare. Men se det inte som något dåligt för er – tvärtom, det var till er fördel. Var och en av dessa [ryktesspridare] ska stå till svars för sin synd, och den ledande bland dem ska få ett oerhört straff.
24:12 Varför tänkte inte de troende männen och kvinnorna gott om sina egna när de hörde detta [rykte] och sa: ”Detta är en uppenbar lögn”?
24:13 Varför kom de inte med fyra vittnen? Eftersom de inte kunde uppbringa några vittnen står de nu som lögnare inför Gud.
24:11 O ağır iftirayı uyduranlar, sizin içinizden bir güruhtur. Bu iftirayı kendiniz için kötü bir şey sanmayın. Aksine o sizin için bir hayırdır. Onlardan her biri için işledikleri günahın cezası vardır. İçlerinden (elebaşılık ederek) o günahın büyüğünü üstlenen için ise ağır bir azap vardır.
24:12 Onu işittiğiniz zaman, Mümin erkek ve Mümin kadınların kendi vicdanlarında hüsnü zanda bulunup; “Bu, apaçık bir iftiradır.” demeleri gerekmez miydi?
24:13 Onların (iftiracıların) da bu konuda dört şahit getirmeleri gerekmez miydi? Mademki şahitler getiremediler, öyle ise onlar Allah nezdinde yalancıların ta kendileridirler.
24:11 جو لوگ یہ بہت بڑا بہتان باندھ ﻻئے ہیں[1] یہ بھی تم میں سے ہی ایک گروه[2] ہے۔ تم اسے اپنے لئے برا نہ سمجھو، بلکہ یہ تو تمہارے حق میں بہتر ہے[3]۔ ہاں ان میں سے ہر ایک شخص پر اتنا گناه ہے جتنا اس نے کمایا ہے اور ان میں سے جس نے اس کے بہت بڑے حصے کو سرانجام دیا ہے اس کے لئے عذاب بھی بہت ہی بڑا ہے.[4]
24:12 اسے سنتے ہی مومن مردوں عورتوں نے اپنے حق میں نیک گمانی کیوں نہ کی اور کیوں نہ کہہ دیا کہ یہ تو کھلم کھلا صریح بہتان ہے.[1]
24:13 وه اس پر چار گواه کیوں نہ ﻻئے؟ اور جب گواه نہیں ﻻئے تو یہ بہتان باز لوگ یقیناً اللہ کے نزدیک محض جھوٹے ہیں.

When ye published that with your tongues, and spoke that with your mouths, of which ye had no knowledge; and esteemed it to be light, whereas it was a matter of importance in the sight of God

Those who accuse chaste women, then cannot bring four witnesses, whip them eighty lashes, and do not ever accept their testimony. For these are the immoral.
And those who accuse honourable women but bring not four witnesses, scourge them (with) eighty stripes and never (afterward) accept their testimony - They indeed are evil-doers
but those who cast (imputations) on chaste women and then do not bring four witnesses, scourge them with eighty stripes, and do not receive any testimony of theirs ever, for these are the workers of abomination
They who defame virtuous women, and bring not four witnesses, scourge them with fourscore stripes, and receive ye not their testimony for ever, for these are perverse persons

Were it not for God's grace upon you, and His mercy, and that God is Conciliatory and Wise.
And had it not been for the grace of Allah and His mercy unto you, and that Allah is Clement, Wise, (ye had been undone)
And were it not for God's grace upon you and His mercy, and that God is relenting, wise

The translators word this verse differently
Those who perpetrated the slander are a band of you. Do not consider it bad for you, but it is good for you. Each person among them bears his share in the sin. As for him who played the major role-for him is a terrible punishment.
Lo! they who spread the slander are a gang among you. Deem it not a bad thing for you; nay, it is good for you. Unto every man of them (will be paid) that which he hath earned of the sin; and as for him among them who had the greater share therein, his will be an awful doom
Verily, those who bring forward the lie, a band of you,- reckon it not as an evil for you, nay, it is good for you; every man of them shall have what he has earned of sin; and he of them who managed to aggravate it, for him is mighty woe
Of a truth, they who advanced that lie were a large number of you; but regard it not as an evil to you. No, it is an advantage to you. To every man among them shall it be done according to the offence he hath committed; and as to that person among them who took on himself to aggravate it, a sore punishment doth await him
As to the party among you who have published the falsehood concerning Ayesha, think it not to be an evil unto you: On the contrary, it is better for you. Every man of them shall be punished according to the injustice of which he hath been guilty; and he among them who hath undertaken to aggravate the same, shall suffer a grievous punishment

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it4 of the 5 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page
The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.
Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 24:4-5, 24:11-13, 24:6-9, 4:15, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.
How this set was arrived at. The verses were found by a word search of the four public-domain translations, using terms chosen by the editor and listed here as they were searched - accuse + honourable + women; four + witnesses; eighty + stripes; never + afterward + accept + their + testimony; accuse + their + wives. The search was a way of finding passages, not a judgement about what they mean: that several translators chose the same English word is not evidence about the Arabic. A different choice of terms gives a different set.
Verses carried by more than one study. Some passages here also serve another study. Each carries its own reason in each place, and the reason states where else it appears.
Where the translations part company, named rather than resolved. How differently the translations word each verse is shown on that verse's page, and the study names the differences it turns on rather than choosing between them.
