Surah An-Noor (Chapter 24 of the Quran) is a Madani surah revealed around 6 Hijri, after the Battle of Banu Mustaliq and the incident of the slander (Ifk) against Aisha (R.A). The surah contains important rulings on social ethics, including laws on adultery, slander, and the famous verse of light (Ayat al-Noor). Its revelation context is closely tied to the events surrounding the campaign against Banu Mustaliq.
Surah An-Noor is the 24th chapter of the Holy Quran and consists of 64 verses. It was revealed in Madina and is named after the verse of light (Ayat al-Noor, verse 35), which beautifully describes Allah's light. The surah addresses significant social reforms including the punishment for adultery (Hadd of zina), the requirement of four witnesses for accusations of adultery, and the etiquette of entering homes.
