Open in Qurani

And the fifth; the invoking of the curse of Allah on him if he be of those who tell a lie.

The punishment for Zina should be carried out on her, and nothing can prevent the punishment except if she also swears the oath of condemnation (Li`an) and swears by Allah four times that he is one of those who lied, i.e., in what he is accusing her of;

والخامسة أن غضب الله عليها إن كان من الصادقين

And the fifth; should be that the wrath of Allah be upon her if he speaks the truth
