The Children of Israel
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE[17:32]
And do not commit adultery – for, behold, it is an abomination and an evil way.

* v.32 : Lit., “do not come near adultery,” thus intensifying the prohibition. It is to be noted that the term zinā signifies all sexual intercourse between a man and a woman who are not husband and wife, irrespective of whether either of them is married to another partner or not; hence, it denotes both “adultery” and “fornication” in the English senses of these terms.
