Accusations

Those who make an accusation against their wives and have no witnesses except themselves, such people should testify four times by Allah that they are telling the truth (6) and a fifth time that Allah’s curse will be upon them if they are lying. (7) And the punishment is removed from her if she testifies four times by Allah that he is lying (8) and a fifth time that Allah’s anger will be upon her if he is telling the truth. (9)

You who believe! People should not ridicule others who may be better than themselves; nor should any women ridicule other women who may be better than themselves. And do not find fault with one another or insult each other with derogatory nicknames. How evil it is to have a name for evil conduct after coming to faith! Those people who do not turn from it are wrongdoers.(11)
