P. 245
those who guard their private parts except from their wives and
any slaves they own,in which case they incur no blame, but if
anyone desires any more than that,they have overstepped the
limits; (Mearic Suresi, 29-31)
As for anyone who does that out of enmity and wrongdoing, We
will roast him in a Fire. That is an easy matter for Allah. (Qur'an,
4:30)
O Prophet! When any of you divorce women, divorce them during
their period of purity and calculate their term carefully. And have
fear of Allah, your Lord. Do not evict them from their homes, nor
should they leave, unless they commit an outright indecency.
Those are Allah's limits, and anyone who oversteps Allah's limits
has wronged himself. You never know, it may well be that after that
Allah will cause a new situation to develop. (Qur'an, 65:1)
Call on your Lord humbly and secretly. He does not love those
who overstep the limits. (Qur'an, 7:55)
Say: 'People of the Book! Do not go to extremes in your religion,
asserting other than the truth, and do not follow the whims and
desires of people who were misguided previously and have
misguided many others, and are far from the right way.' (Qur'an,
5:77)
What is the matter with you that you do not eat that over which
the name of Allah has been mentioned, when He has made clear
to you what He has made forbidden for you except when you are
forced to eat it? Many people lead others astray through their
whims and desires without having any knowledge. Your Lord
knows best those who overstep the limits. (Qur'an, 6:119)
But We kept Our promise to them and rescued them and those We
willed, and destroyed the profligate. (Qur'an, 21:9)
That is how We repay anyone who is profligate and does not
believe in the Signs of his Lord. And the punishment of the
hereafter is much harsher and longer lasting. (Qur'an, 20:127)
