Subhanallaah. Guys- Check out Verse 14
Where Allaah swt rebukes the people who spread the fitnah of gossip about Aisha ra - God here is explicitly saying-- when you heard that bad mouthing- why didn't you defend her and give Glory to me for what they say is a LIE!
Here is the verse
14
Had it not been for Allah’s grace and mercy upon you in this world and the Hereafter, you would have certainly been touched with a tremendous punishment for what you plunged into—
So basically Allaah swt is declaring that he will forgive us here on earth and later in the heavens.
Laa xawla walaah quwaatii iilaah Bilaah
15
when you passed it from one tongue to the other, and said with your mouths what you had no knowledge of, taking it lightly while it is ˹extremely˺ serious in the sight of Allah.
Wow.
16
If only you had said upon hearing it, “How can we speak about such a thing! Glory be to You ˹O Lord˺! This is a heinous slander!”
