Transliteration:( Wa yubaiyinul laahu lakumul Aayaat; wallaahu 'Aleemun Hakeem )
“And Allah explains to you His signs clearly. And Allah is Knowing, Wise. [34]”
This verse declares that Allah has made His signs and commands fully clear for the believers. These signs include:
The laws of Shariah, especially those revealed in response to the incident of slander,
And the clear exoneration and testimony of purity for Sayyidah Ayesha Siddiqah (RA).
By stating that Allah is Knowing and Wise, the verse affirms:
His complete knowledge of what is hidden and apparent,
And that His rulings are grounded in perfect wisdom, ensuring justice, protection, and guidance for the believers.
Thus, this verse serves to conclude the discussion on the slander incident with a reminder:
What Allah revealed was not only for one case but as a lasting framework of justice and ethical responsibility for the Ummah.
The tafsir of Surah An-Nur verse 18 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Nur ayat 16 which provides the complete commentary from verse 16 through 18.
(24:18) Allah clearly expounds to you His instructions. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.[15]
15. These verses, especially (Surah Nur, ayat 12), wherein Allah says: “Why did not the believing men and the believing women have a good opinion of themselves” provide the general principle that all dealings in the Islamic society must be based on good faith. The question of a bad opinion should arise only when there is a definite and concrete basis for it. Every person should, as a matter of principle, be considered as innocent unless there are sound reasons to hold him guilty or suspect. Every person should be considered as truthful unless there are strong grounds for holding him as unreliable.
