Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The Command and the Wisdom behind the Law of EqualityAllah states: O believers! The Law of equality has been ordained on you (for cases of murder), the free for the free, the slave for the slave and the female for the female. Therefore, do not transgress the set limits, as others before you transgressed them, and thus changed what Allah has ordained for them.
