Allah Mtukufu amesema, {Hakika wale wanaowasingizia wanawake wasafi, wasiojihusisha na mambo ya uchafu, waumini, wamelaaniwa duniani na Akhera; na watapata adhabu kubwa. Siku ambapo ndimi zao, mikono yao na miguu yao vitatoa ushahidi juu yao kwa yale waliyokuwa wakitenda.} (24: 23-24)

Allah Most High says, {Those who slander chaste secured, and believing women are cursed in this life and in the hereafter: for them is a grievous chastisement. On the day when their tongues, their hands, and their feet will bear witness against them as to their as to their actions.} (24: 23-24)

Pia anasema, {Na wale wanaowatuhumu wanawake wema, kisha hawaleti mashahidi wanne, basi wapigeni viboko themanini, wala msikubali ushahidi wao kamwe; hao ndio mafasiki.} (24: 4)

He also says, {And those who launch a charge against chaste women and produce not four witnesses (to support their allegations) -flog them with eighty stripes: and reject their evidence ever after: for such men are wicked transgressors.} (24: 4)

Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu katika aya hizi anabainisha wazi kwamba yeyote anayemshutumu kwa dhuluma mwanamke mwungwana aliyejiepusha, mwenye kujistahi, kwamba amezini, amelaaniwa katika dunia hii na Akhera, na anastahiki adhabu kubwa.

Allah the Almighty in these verses makes it clear that whosoever unjustly accuses as chaste free woman of committing adultery is cursed both in this world and in the hereafter, and deserves grave chastisement.

Zaidi, anachapwa viboko themanini, na ushahidi wake haukubaliwi hata kama yeye ni mwadilifu.

In addition, he is flogged with eighty lashes and his witness is not accepted even though he is just.

Katika Sahih Bukhari na Muslim – Mtume ﷺ anasema: "Epukeni dhambi saba za maangamizi……" Miongoni mwazo alizozitaja ni kuwatuhumu wanawake waumini walio safi, ambao hawajali, ingawa hawana hatia, kwa uzinzi. Mfano wa tuhuma kama hizo ni pale mtu anapomwambia mwanamke Mwislamu aliye safi na huru: "Wewe ni mzinzi," au "malaya," au "kahaba," au anapomwambia mumewe, "wewe ni mume wa malaya," au kumwita mtoto wake "mtoto wa kahaba." Kanuni hiyo hiyo inatumika ikiwa mtu atamsingizia mwanaume kufanya uzinzi, au kumsingizia mvulana huru kufanya liwati. Mshtaki asiye wa haki katika visa vyote hivyo hapo juu lazima aadhibiwe kwa viboko themanini, isipokuwa akileta ushahidi wa wanaume wanne wanaounga mkono madai yake. La sivyo, lazima apigwe viboko themanini kwa ombi la mtu aliyedhulumiwa.

In the Sahih Bukhari and Muslim -the Prophet says, “Avoid seven heinous sins…..” And among which he mentioned charging believing women, unmindful though innocent, with adultery" An example of such an accusation is if someone says to a Muslim chaste free woman:" You are an adulteress." or "a harlot", or "a whore" or to say to her husband, “you are the prostitute's husband" or to call her child as " the whore's child" The same rule is applied if someone slanders a man of committing adultery, or a free boy with pederasty. The unjust accuser in all the above cases must suffer eighty stripes unless he brings a testimony of four men who support his allegation. Otherwise, he must be flogged with eighty lashes upon the request of the offended person.

Mtume ﷺ pia alimkataza mtu kumshutumu kwa uongo mtumwa wake wa kiume au mjakazi wake kuwa wamezini.

The Prophet, too, forbade a man to wrongfully accuse his bondman or his slave girl of committing adultery.

Mtu anayemshutumu mjakazi wake kwa zinaa atapata adhabu ya kuwasingizia watu siku ya Kiyama isipokuwa tu kama alichosema ni cha kweli." Watu wengi wajinga wamezama katika makosa kama haya, ambayo huleta adhabu duniani na akhera.

A person who accuses his maid servant with adultery, will be subjected to the punishment of slandering on the Day of Judgement unless he happens to be true" A lot of ignorant people are indulged in such offenses which procure the chastisement in this world and in the hereafter.

Mtu anapotamka neno bila kujua, iwe ni sahihi au si sahihi, linaweza kumtupa motoni kwa umbali sawa na masafa kati ya mashariki na magharibi.

When a person says something unknowingly right or wrong, it may lead him to fall down in hell as far away as the distance between the east and west.

Mu'adh b. Jabal aliuliza, "Ewe Mjumbe wa Mwenyezi Mungu! Je, tutaulizwa kwa yale tunayoyasema?" Mtume ﷺ akajibu, "Mama yako akupoteze! Watu hawatatupwa kifudifudi motoni isipokuwa kwa sababu ya matunda ya ndimi zao," yaani maneno yao. "Yeye anayemwamini Mwenyezi Mungu na Siku ya Kiyama aseme maneno mazuri, la sivyo aite kimya."1

Mu'az b. Jabal asked, "0 Messenger of Allah! Will we be called to account for what we say?" The Prophet answered “May you be lost to your mother! The people will be thrown with their face." down, into the hell only on account of the product of the tongues "i.e. their talking: " He who believes in Allah and the Day of Resurrection should speak well. Otherwise, he should keep silent.”1

Allah anasema, {Hasemi neno lolote ila yuko karibu naye mlinzi aliyejitayarisha.} (50:18)

Allah says, {Not a word does he utter but there is a vigilant Guardian.} (50:18)

'Uqbah Ibn 'Amir aliwahi kumwuliza Mtume ﷺ, "Ni nini wokovu, Mjumbe wa Allah?" Mtume ﷺ akasema, "Dhibiti ulimi wako, kaa ndani ya nyumba yako, na lia (ujutie) dhambi zako. Na mtu aliye mbali zaidi na Allah atakuwa ni yule ambaye moyo wake ni mgumu." 2

'Uqbah Ibn ' Amir once asked the Prophet (pbuh), "What is the salvation, Allah's Apostle?" The Prophet said, "Control your tongue, keep inside your house, and weep (be sorry) for your sins. And the person farthest from Allah will be the one whose heart is hard” 2

Hakika Allah huwachukia wenye matusi machafu na maneno ya aibu. 3

"Verily Allah dislikes the indecent obscene person " 3
