يٰۗاَيُّہَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا تَتَّبِعُوْا خُطُوٰتِ الشَّيْطٰنِ۝۰ۭ وَمَنْ يَّتَّبِـعْ خُطُوٰتِ الشَّيْطٰنِ فَاِنَّہٗ يَاْمُرُ بِالْفَحْشَاۗءِ وَالْمُنْكَرِ۝۰ۭ وَلَوْلَا فَضْلُ اللہِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُہٗ مَا زَكٰي مِنْكُمْ مِّنْ اَحَدٍ اَبَدًا۝۰ۙ وَّلٰكِنَّ اللہَ يُزَكِّيْ مَنْ يَّشَاۗءُ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ سَمِيْعٌ عَلِيْمٌ۝۲۱

Ahmed Ali

O you who believe, do not follow in the footsteps of Satan, for he who follows in the footsteps of Satan will be induced by him to what is shameful and forbidden. But for the grace of God and His mercy upon you none of you would have escaped undefiled; but God makes whosoever He will grow in goodness, for God is all-hearing and all-knowing.

21

وَلَا يَاْتَلِ اُولُوا الْفَضْلِ مِنْكُمْ وَالسَّعَۃِ اَنْ يُّؤْتُوْۗا اُولِي الْقُرْبٰى وَالْمَسٰكِيْنَ وَالْمُہٰجِرِيْنَ فِيْ سَبِيْلِ اللہِ ۝۰۠ۖ وَلْيَعْفُوْا وَلْيَصْفَحُوْا۝۰ۭ اَلَا تُحِبُّوْنَ اَنْ يَّغْفِرَ اللہُ لَكُمْ۝۰ۭ وَاللہُ غَفُوْرٌ رَّحِيْمٌ۝۲۲
Wala yatali oloo alfadli minkum waalssaAAati an yutoo olee alqurba waalmasakeena waalmuhajireena fee sabeeli Allahi walyaAAfoo walyasfahoo ala tuhibboona an yaghfira Allahu lakum waAllahu ghafoorun raheemun

English

Ahmed Ali

Let not those who are men of plenty and means among you swear that they will not give to their relatives and the poor and those who leave their homes in the service of God. They should forgive and overlook (their failings). Would you not like God to forgive you? And God is forgiving and kind.

22

اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ يَرْمُوْنَ الْمُحْصَنٰتِ الْغٰفِلٰتِ الْمُؤْمِنٰتِ لُعِنُوْا فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْاٰخِرَۃِ۝۰۠ وَلَہُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيْمٌ۝۲۳ۙ

Verily those who blaspheme unsuspecting chaste believing women will be cursed in this world and the next; and for them there will be severe punishment.

يَّوْمَ تَشْہَدُ عَلَيْہِمْ اَلْسِنَتُہُمْ وَاَيْدِيْہِمْ وَاَرْجُلُہُمْ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَعْمَلُوْنَ۝۲۴

The day their tongues and hands and feet bear witness to what they had done,

24

يَوْمَىِٕذٍ يُّوَفِّيْہِمُ اللہُ دِيْنَہُمُ الْحَقَّ وَيَعْلَمُوْنَ اَنَّ اللہَ ہُوَالْحَقُّ الْمُبِيْنُ۝۲۵
Yawmaithin yuwaffeehimu Allahu deenahumu alhaqqa wayaAAlamoona anna Allaha huwa alhaqqu almubeenu

God will pay them on that day their just due in full, and they will come to know that God is the tangible Reality.

Bad women deserve bad men, and bad men are for bad women; but good women are for good men, and good men for good women, for they are innocent of what people say. There is forgiveness for them and a gracious provision.
