Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

An-Nur 24:16

Word by word

وَلَوْلَآ إِذْ سَمِعْتُمُوهُ قُلْتُم مَّا يَكُونُ لَنَآ أَن نَّتَكَلَّمَ بِهَـٰذَا سُبْحَـٰنَكَ هَـٰذَا بُهْتَـٰنٌ عَظِيمٌ

And why, when you heard it, did you not say, "It is not for us to speak of this. Exalted are You, [O Allāh]; this is a great slander"?

Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

هذا تأديب آخر بعد الأول : الأمر بالظن خيرا أي : إذا ذكر ما لا يليق من القول في شأن الخيرة فأولى ينبغي الظن بهم خيرا ، وألا يشعر نفسه سوى ذلك ، ثم إن علق بنفسه شيء من ذلك - وسوسة أو خيالا - فلا ينبغي أن يتكلم به ، فإن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : " إن الله تجاوز لأمتي عما حدثت به أنفسها ما لم تقل أو تعمل " أخرجاه في الصحيحين .وقال الله تعالى : ( ولولا إذ سمعتموه قلتم ما يكون لنا أن نتكلم بهذا ) أي : ما ينبغي لنا أن نتفوه بهذا الكلام ولا نذكره لأحد ( سبحانك هذا بهتان عظيم ) أي : سبحان الله أن يقال هذا الكلام على زوجة [ نبيه و ] رسوله وحليلة خليله .
