اِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ جَا࢜ءُوْ بِالْاِفْكِ عُصْبَةٌ مِّنْكُمْؕ لَا تَحْسَبُوْهُ شَرًّا لَّكُمْؕ بَلْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْؕ لِكُلِّ امْرِي͏ٔ͏ٍ مِّنْهُمْ مَّا اكْتَسَبَ مِنَ الْاِثْمِۚ وَالَّذِيْ تَوَلّٰي كِبْرَهٗ مِنْهُمْ لَهٗ عَذَابٌ عَظِيْمٌ ١١
Translation
Indeed those who initiated the calumny are a group from among yourselves. Do not suppose it is bad thing for you. No, it is for your good. Each man among them bears [the onus for] his share in the sin, and as for him who assumed its major burden from among them, there is a great punishment for him.
