The Holy Quran 33:58 — Surah Al-Ahzab

Arabic text

وَٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْذُونَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ بِغَيْرِ مَا ٱكْتَسَبُوا۟ فَقَدِ ٱحْتَمَلُوا۟ بُهْتَـٰنًا وَإِثْمًا مُّبِينًا

Translation

Those who harm (falsely accuse) the Mu'mineen men and women for no sin on their part (even though they are innocent of the alleged sin) will bear the burden of slander (falsehood) and a manifest sin (for which they will be severely punished).
