And those who, having done something to be ashamed of, or wronged their own souls, earnestly bring Allah to mind, and ask for forgiveness for their sins,- and who can forgive sins except Allah?- and are never obstinate in persisting knowingly in (the wrong) they have done.
And marry not women whom your fathers married,- except what is past: It was shameful and odious,- an abominable custom indeed.
When they do aught that is shameful, they say: "We found our fathers doing so"; and "Allah commanded us thus": Say: "Nay, Allah never commands what is shameful: do ye say of Allah what ye know not?"
Nor come nigh to adultery: for it is a shameful (deed) and an evil, opening the road (to other evils).
敬畏者,当做了丑事或自欺的时候,记念真主,且为自己的罪恶而求饶--除真主外,谁能赦宥罪恶呢?--他们没有明知故犯地怙恶不悛。
你们不要娶你们的父亲娶过的妇女,但已往的不受惩罚。这确是一件丑事,确是一件可恨的行为,这种习俗真恶劣!
当他们做了丑事的时候,他们说:“我们发现我们的祖先是这样做的。真主也是命令我们这样做的。”你说:“真主不命令人做丑事。难道你们假借真主的名义而妄言你们自己所不知道的事情吗?”
你们不要接近私通,因为私通确是下流的事,这行径真恶劣!
