حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْغَنِيِّ، ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: « {لَوْلَا جَاءُوا عَلَيْهِ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ} » لَكَانُوا هُمْ وَالَّذِينَ شَهِدُوا كَاذِبَيْنَ "، {فَإِذْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا بِالشُّهَدَاءِ فَأُولَئِكَ عِنْدَ اللهِ هُمُ الْكَاذِبُونَ} [النور: ١٣] «يُرِيدُ الْكَذِبَ بِعَيْنِهِ»
Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "Why did they not bring four witnesses to it?" — had they done so, they and those who testified would all have been deemed liars — "And since they did not bring the witnesses, it is they who are the liars in the sight of Allah" [Surah An-Nur: 13], meaning sheer lying.
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي الطَّاهِرِ بْنِ السَّرْحِ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ " {لَوْلَا جَاءُوا عَلَيْهِ} يَعْنِي: «عَلَى الْقَذْفِ» ، {بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ فَإِذْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا بِالشُّهَدَاءِ فَأُولَئِكَ عِنْدَ اللهِ هُمُ الْكَاذِبُونَ} [النور: ١٣] يَعْنِي: «الَّذِينَ قَذَفُوا عَائِشَةَ»
Sa'id bin Jubayr said concerning this verse: "Why did they not bring to it" — meaning to the accusation — "four witnesses? And since they did not bring the witnesses, it is they who are the liars in the sight of Allah" [Surah An-Nur: 13], meaning those who accused Sayyidah Aishah.
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي الطَّاهِرِ بْنِ السَّرْحِ الْمِصْرِيُّ، ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، ثنا رِشْدِينُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي صَخْرٍ: {لَوْلَا جَاءُوا عَلَيْهِ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ فَإِذْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا بِالشُّهَدَاءِ فَأُولَئِكَ عِنْدَ اللهِ هُمُ الْكَاذِبُونَ} «كُلُّ مَنْ قَذَفَ مُسْلِمًا، ثُمَّ لَمْ يَأْتِ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَاءَ فَهُوَ قَاذِفٌ عَلَيْهِ حَدُّ الْقَذْفِ»
Abu Sakhr relates: "Why did they not bring four witnesses to it? And since they did not bring the witnesses, it is they who are the liars in the sight of Allah": Whoever accuses a Muslim and then cannot bring four witnesses is a qadhif (false accuser), and the hadd punishment for false accusation (qadhf) becomes binding upon him.
