Sura 24
Aya 26
26
الخَبيثاتُ لِلخَبيثينَ وَالخَبيثونَ لِلخَبيثاتِ ۖ وَالطَّيِّباتُ لِلطَّيِّبينَ وَالطَّيِّبونَ لِلطَّيِّباتِ ۚ أُولٰئِكَ مُبَرَّءونَ مِمّا يَقولونَ ۖ لَهُم مَغفِرَةٌ وَرِزقٌ كَريمٌ

(Saheeh International)

Evil words are for evil men, and evil men are [subjected] to evil words. And good words are for good men, and good men are [an object] of good words.1 Those [good people] are declared innocent of what they [i.e., slanderers] say. For them is forgiveness and noble provision.
  • Another accepted interpretation is "Evil women are for evil men, and evil men are for evil women. And good women are for good men, and good men are for good women."
