'''The Event of Ifk''' (Arabic: {{ia|حادثة الإفك}}) refers to an event in the history of early [[Islam]] to which the [[verse]]s 11-26 of [[Sura al-Nur]] refer. This event took place in [[5]]/626, when a group of people accused a Muslim of adultery, who was, as famously narrated, [[Aisha]], the Prophet's (s) wife. In the mentioned verses, [[God]] blames people for slandering and spreading rumors. According to another narration which is mentioned in [[Shi'a]] sources, the person who was the subject of slander was [[Mariya al-Qibtiyya]], another wife of the [[Prophet (s)]], mother of [[Ibrahim son of the Prophet (s)|Ibrahim]], son of the Prophet (s). The historical authenticity of both [[Asbab al-Nuzul|contexts of revelation]] or their relations with the mentioned verses have been questioned and doubted by some researchers. | '''The Event of Ifk''' (Arabic: {{ia|حادثة الإفك}}) refers to an event in the history of early [[Islam]] to which the [[verse]]s 11-26 of [[Sura al-Nur]] refer.

According to most exegetes and historians, the mentioned verses refer to events taken place in 5/626, when a group of the Prophet's (a) companions whom, according to Islamic sources, were hypocrites accused Aisha, the Prophet's (a) wife of adultery until the glorious Qur'an, in the mentioned verses, considered accusing chaste women a great sin. [[Sunni]]s consider revelation of these verses about Aisha a great merit for her.<ref>Fakhr al-Rāzī, ''al-Tafsīr al-kabīr'', vol. 23, p. 173; Ibn Athīr al-Jazarī, ''Usd al-ghāba'', vol. 5, p. 504.</ref> | According to most exegetes and historians, the mentioned verses refer to events taken place in 5/626-7, when a group of the Prophet's (a) companions whom, according to Islamic sources, were hypocrites accused Aisha, the Prophet's (a) wife of adultery until the glorious Qur'an, in the mentioned verses, considered accusing chaste women a great sin.

The story is famously narrated from Aisha and in most sources of Islamic history is mentioned in a similar way as the following: upon returning from the [[Battle of Banu l-Mustaliq]], when the caravan was resting in a place, Aisha went away from the resting place for her need of toilet, but she lost her necklace and began searching for it. Meanwhile, the army who were not aware of her absence, moved on and took her howdah with them thinking that she is inside it. When Aisha returned, found the place empty and stayed there until a person called Safwan b. Mu'attal arrived and let her got on his camel and took her to the army. According to this report, after the caravan arrived in Medina, Aisha became sick and when she was in her bed noticed the prophet's (a) change of manner toward herself and found that some rumors had been spread about her and Safwan. After a while, the verses of the Qur'an criticizing the accusers were revealed and the Prophet (a) recited them for people.<ref>Ibn Hishām, ''Sīrat al-nabawīyya'', vol. 2, p. 297-302; Wāqidī, ''al-Maghāzī'', p. 426-435.</ref> | The story is famously narrated from Aisha and in most sources of Islamic history is mentioned in a similar way as the following: upon returning from the [[Battle of Banu l-Mustaliq]], when the caravan was resting in a place, Aisha went away from the resting place for her need of toilet, but she lost her necklace and began searching for it.
