Abu Hurairah narrated that Abu l-Qasim, the Prophet of Repentance, said :
"If somebody slanders his slave (by accusing him of committing illegal sexual intercourse) and the slave is innocent from what he says, Allah will impose the punishment upon him on the Day of Resurrection, unless it is as he said about him."
