Commentary

And he drives away the punishment from her, meaning the one who is accused. It is the prescribed limit that has been mandated upon her by the previous testimony of the husband, that she must testify four testimonies by Allah, who has all the best names and the highest attributes, as has been mentioned regarding the husband.
