A sura that We have sent down and appointed; and We have sent down in it signs, clear signs, that haply you will remember. |
 |
The fornicatress and the fornicator -- scourge each one of them a hundred stripes, and in the matter of God's religion let no tenderness for them seize you if you believe in God and the Last Day; and let a party of the believers witness their chastisement. |
 |
The fornicator shall marry none but a fornicatress or an idolatress, and the fornicatress -- none shall marry her but a fornicator or an idolator; that is forbidden to the believers. |
 |
And those who cast it up on women in wedlock, and then bring not four witnesses, scourge them with eighty stripes, and do not accept any testimony of theirs ever; those -- they are the ungodly, |
 |
save such as repent thereafter and make amends; surely God is All-forgiving, All-compassionate. |
