لَّوْلَا
جَاءُوا
عَلَيْهِ
بِأَرْبَعَةِ
شُهَدَاءَ
فَإِذْ
لَمْ
يَأْتُوا
بِالشُّهَدَاءِ
فَأُولَئِكَ
عِندَ
اللَّهِ
هُمُ
الْكَاذِبُونَ

Why did they not bring four witnesses to prove it? When they have not brought the witnesses, such men, in the sight of Allah, (stand forth) themselves as liars!
— Abdullah Yusufali
Why did they not bring four witnesses to it? So when they could not bring the witnesses, they are liars in Allah’s sight.
