Verily, Allah is Ever AllWitness over everything.


English - Sahih International

There is no blame upon women concerning their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their brothers' sons or their sisters' sons or their women or those their right hands possess. And fear Allah. Indeed Allah is ever, over all things, Witness.

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(33:55) It will not be blameworthy for the wives of the Prophet if their fathers, their sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, *102 and the women with whom they have social relations, *103 and the persons whom their right hands possess enter their houses. *104 (O women), shun disobeying Allah. Allah is watchful over everything. *105

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

*102) For explanation, see E.N.'s 38 to 42 of Surah An-Nur. 'Allama Alusi's commentary in this connection is also noteworthy. He says, "Brothers and sons of brothers and sisters include aII those relatives who are unlawful for a woman, whether they are blood relations or foster relations. This list does not mention the paternal and maternal uncles because they are like the parents to the woman, or perhaps they have been left out because there was no need to mention them after mentioning their sons, For the reason for not observing purdah from the brother's son and sister's son is the same as of not observing it from the paternal and maternal uncles." (Ruh al-Ma ani.)
*103) For explanation, see E. N. 43 of An-Nur.
*104) For explanation, see E. N. 44 of An-Nur.
*105) It means this: After the coming down of this absolute Command no person outside the circle of the relatives, who have been made an exception, should be allowed to enter the houses without purdah being observed from them, " Another meaning is: "The woman should never adopt the attitude that they should observe purdah when the husband is present, but should appear without purdah before the other men, when he is away. Such a conduct may remain hidden from the husband but not from Allah.
