7545. Narrated ‘Aishah رضي الله عنها (when the slanderers said what they said about her): I went to my bed knowing at that time that I was innocent and that Allāh would reveal my innocence, but by Allāh, I never thought that Allāh would reveal in my favour a revelation which would be recited, for I considered myself too unimportant to be talked about by Allāh in the Divine Revelation that was to be recited. So Allāh revealed the ten Verses (of Sūrat An-Nūr): “Verily! Those who brought forth the slander...” (V.24: 11-20).
