بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

7.28

وَ اِذَا فَعَلُوْا فَاحِشَةً قَالُوْا وَجَدْنَا عَلَیْهَاۤ اٰبَآءَنَا وَ اللّٰهُ اَمَرَنَا بِهَاؕ-قُلْ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یَاْمُرُ بِالْفَحْشَآءِؕ-اَتَقُوْلُوْنَ عَلَى اللّٰهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُوْنَ(28)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Imaan

And when they (the polytheists) commit a shameful act, they hence say, 'We found our forefathers upon it and Allah has commanded it to us.' Say you (O Beloved), 'Indeed, Allah does not command shamelessness; do you attribute things to Allah, which you know not?'

Commentary

Here, the term ‘فَاحِشَہ’ refers to polytheism or a pagan ritual of circumambulating the Ka‘bah naked; they justified this shamelessness by stating it was the way of their forefathers―this was refuted.
