Quran verses about Slander (ifk)
الإفك
20 verses in 8 surahs · 16 subtopics
The slander spread against the Mother of the Believers dominates these verses, which recall that the believers owed her a good opinion even more than themselves. They rebuke those who passed the rumor on without verifying it, threaten those who love to see indecency spread, and set the penalty for false accusation and the requirement of witnesses. The term also calls the worship of other than Allah a lie.
