Sura 24 An-Nur (The Light), ayah 12

  1. لَوْلَا إِذْ سَمِعْتُمُوهُ ظَنَّ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتُ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ خَيْرًا وَقَالُوا هَٰذَا إِفْكٌ مُبِينٌ

    Translation by words

    لَّوْلَآ
    Why not,
    إِذْ
    when
    سَمِعْتُمُوهُ
    you heard it,
    ظَنَّ
    think
    ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ
    the believing men
    وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتُ
    and the believing women
    بِأَنفُسِهِمْ
    good of themselves
    خَيْرًا
    good of themselves
    وَقَالُوا۟
    and say,
    هَٰذَآ
    "This
    إِفْكٌ
    (is) a lie
    مُّبِينٌ
    clear?"

    Why, when you heard it, did not the believing men and believing women think good of one another and say, "This is an obvious falsehood"?
