Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: "And those who harm believing men and believing women without what they have earned have certainly taken upon themselves a slander and an evident sin."

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then He said
And those who harm believing men and believing women for [something] other than what they have earned have certainly born upon themselves a slander and manifest sin. والذين يؤذون المؤمنين والمؤمنات بغير ما اكتسبوا فقد احتملوا بهتانا وإثما مبينا
[Al-Ahzab 33:58]
. Harm to the believers can be through speech or through action. Harm to the believers through speech is like cursing, insulting, invoking curses, and accusing them of lies, among other things. This is harm through speech. Harm through action is like striking with the hand or the foot, or with anything else that causes them harm. Included in this is also taking their wealth and withholding their rights, as well as other types of harm. So whoever harms the believers
has taken upon himself a slander and manifest sin. فقد احتمل بهتانا وإثما مبينا
[An-Nisa 4:112]
.
This is what we intended to speak about regarding these verses that we heard in the recitation of our imam for the Fajr prayer. And I ask Allah the Exalted to make us and you among those who take admonition from His speech.
