(24:9) And the fifth [oath will be] that the wrath of Allah be upon her if he was of the truthful. (24:10) And if not for the favor of Allah upon you and His mercy... and because Allah is Accepting of repentance and Wise. (24:11) Indeed, those who came with falsehood are a group among you. Do not think it bad for you; rather it is good for you. For every person among them is what [punishment] he has earned from the sin, and he who took upon himself the greater portion thereof - for him is a great punishment.

(24:13) Why did they [who slandered] not produce for it four witnesses? And when they do not produce the witnesses, then it is they, in the sight of Allah, who are the liars. (24:14) And if it had not been for the favor of Allah upon you and His mercy in this world and the Hereafter, you would have been touched for that [lie] in which you were involved by a great punishment
