33:55 There is no blame on the Prophet’s wives [if they are seen unveiled] by their fathers[1], their sons, their brothers, their brothers’ sons, their sisters’ sons[2], their fellow [Muslim] women, and their slaves whom they own. And fear Allah [O Prophet’s wives], for Allah is Witness over all things.

33:56 Indeed, Allah sends His blessings upon the Prophet, and His angels pray for him. O you who believe, invoke Allah’s blessings upon him and send him greetings of peace.

33:57 Those who offend Allah[1] and His Messenger[2] are cursed by Allah in this world and in the Hereafter, and He has prepared for them a humiliating punishment.

33:58 Those who abuse believing men and women[1] for something they did not commit, will bear the burden of slander and flagrant sin.

33:59 O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters, and the believing women to draw their outer garments[1] over themselves; that is more likely that they will be known [as chaste women] and will not be harassed. And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

33:60 If the hypocrites and those who have sickness in their hearts[1], and the rumormongers in Madinah do not desist, We will surely instruct you [O Prophet] to overpower them, then they will not remain in the city with you except for a short while.

33:61 They are cursed; wherever they are found they should be seized and killed outright[1].

33:62 Such was Allah’s way with those [hypocrites] who came before, and you will find no change in Allah’s way.
