Quran 24:26 – Vile Women Are For Vile Men And Vile Men For Vile Women
The judgement about who’s pure and who’s not will be done on the day of judgement by God. In this world many good men get married to many bad women and vice versa. The greatest example of this is Hazar Asiya – the wife of the Pharaoh. A lot of times people even turn out to be bad many years into the marriage. Quran verse 24:26 is not in relation to this world – it’s about the hereafter. Quran verse 24:3 on the other hand relates a sharia law for the men and the women of this world that those men who are convicted of adultery can only marry such women and vice versa.
Faisal, I read Ghamidi Sahib explanation too and I do not even remotely see how it can be interpretted as related to hereafter. As Ghamidi Sahib says, take the interpretation that makes more sense, so I will follow his guidance. So gar it is not making any sense. Help me understand this… “The bad women for the bad men, and the bad men for the bad women” Unless somehow we stretch our imagination and somehow believe that bad people will have bad wives in hell? Ghamidi Sahib’s argument based on another ayah is very weak.
Faisal Bhai I would love to discuss with an open mind with you. Ghamidi Sahib is the one of the only 2 scholars that I trust and follow, but I do not agree with him on everything. I was just trying to wrap up the conversation cognizant of your busy schedule helping many other people on this forum.
