Commentary

After saying the determined words of Li-‘aan by the husband, it will be ordered to the woman that if she desires to be saved then she should swear by Allaah saying four times that certainly this man (her husband) is a liar. And at fifth time she should say that if this man speaks truth in this matter then the wrath of Allaah be upon her. If the woman denies from saying these words; then she will be imprisoned and compelled that either she should say these words or accept it clearly that the man is true in his claim. If she said that the man spoke truth then she would be accused of adultery, punishment of which is stoning to death. It has been explained earlier.

If the woman said the same fixed words which the man said, then Law of Li-aan would be dismissed and now that woman has become unlawful for her husband and cannot dwell with him as his wife. If the husband divorced the woman then the dispute is over, otherwise the Judge (Ruler) will separate them and this separation will be considered as Talaaqul Baa-‘in (Irrevocable Divorce).

After that it is commanded: Commandment of Li-‘aan is the Grace of Allaah Almighty and His mercy, otherwise either the husband would be accused of Qazf and punished according to that Law because he could not bring four reliable witnesses or he would have to remain silent and bear quietly and patiently during his entire life. Due to this reason, by the means of the Law of Li-aan, husband and wife (both) escaped. On one side the man was saved from the punishment of Qazf, and on the other side the woman kept her secret and was saved from the punishment. Now whoever of both of them is really a liar, he/she is wrongdoer. He/she should repent and pray from Allaah Almighty.  

Allaah Almighty is Clement, Knower of all things and Wise concerning all matters.
