24.21 . O ye who believe! Follow not the footsteps of the devil . Unto whomsoever followeth the footsteps of the devil , lo! he commandeth filthiness and wrong . Had it not been for the grace of Allah and His mercy unto you , not one of you would ever have grown pure . But Allah causeth whom He will to grow . And Allah is Hearer , Knower .
24. 24.22 . And let not those who possess dignity and ease among you swear not to give to the near of kin and to the needy , and to fugitives for the cause of Allah . Let them forgive and show indulgence . Yearn ye not that Allah may forgive you? Allah is Forgiving , Merciful .
24. 24.23 . Lo! as for those who traduce virtuous , believing women ( who are ) careless , cursed are they in the world and the Hereafter . Theirs will be an awful doom
24. 24.24 . On the day when their tongues and their hands and their feet testify against them as to what they used to do ,
24. 24.25 . On that day Allah will pay them their just due , and they will know that Allah , He is the Manifest Truth .
24. 24.26 . Vile women are for vile men , and vile men for vile women . Good women are for good men , and good men for good women ; such are innocent of that which people say : For them is pardon and a bountiful provision .
24. 24.27 . O ye who believe! Enter not houses other than your own without first announcing your presence and invoking peace upon the folk thereof . That is better for you , that ye may be heedful .
24. 24.28 . And if ye find no one therein , still enter not until permission hath been given . And if it be said unto you : Go away again , then go away , for it is purer for you . Allah knoweth what ye do .
24. 24.29 . ( It is ) no sin for you to enter uninhabited houses wherein is comfort for you Allah knoweth that ye proclaim and what ye hide .
24. 24.30 . Tell the believing men to lower their gaze and be modest . That is purer for them . Lo! Allah is Aware of what they do .
