004.003
YUSUFALI: If ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly
with the orphans, Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four; but if ye
fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a
captive) that your right hands possess, that will be more suitable, to prevent
you from doing injustice.
004.004
YUSUFALI: And give the women (on marriage) their dower as a
free gift; but if they, of their own good pleasure, remit any part of it to you,
Take it and enjoy it with right good cheer.
004.005
YUSUFALI: To those weak of understanding Make not over your
property, which Allah hath made a means of support for you, but feed and clothe
them therewith, and speak to them words of kindness and justice.
004.019
YUSUFALI: O ye who believe! Ye are forbidden to inherit women
against their will. Nor should ye treat them with harshness, that ye may Take
away part of the dower ye have given them,-except where they have been guilty of
open lewdness; on the contrary live with them on a footing of kindness and
equity. If ye take a dislike to them it may be that ye dislike a thing, and
Allah brings about through it a great deal of good.
004.020
YUSUFALI: But if ye decide to take one wife in place of
another, even if ye had given the latter a whole treasure for dower, Take not
the least bit of it back: Would ye take it by slander and manifest wrong?
004.021
YUSUFALI: And how could ye take it when ye have gone in unto
each other, and they have Taken from you a solemn covenant?
004.022
YUSUFALI: And marry not women whom your fathers married,-
except what is past: It was shameful and odious,- an abominable custom indeed.
004.023
YUSUFALI: Prohibited to you (For marriage) are:- Your mothers,
daughters, sisters; father's sisters, Mother's sisters; brother's daughters,
sister's daughters; foster-mothers (Who gave you suck), foster-sisters; your
wives' mothers; your step-daughters under your guardianship, born of your wives
to whom ye have gone in,- no prohibition if ye have not gone in;- (Those who
have been) wives of your sons proceeding from your loins; and two sisters in
wedlock at one and the same time, except for what is past; for Allah is
Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful;-
004.024
YUSUFALI: Also (prohibited are) women already married, except
those whom your right hands possess: Thus hath Allah ordained (Prohibitions)
against you: Except for these, all others are lawful, provided ye seek (them in
marriage) with gifts from your property,- desiring chastity, not lust, seeing
that ye derive benefit from them, give them their dowers (at least) as
prescribed; but if, after a dower is prescribed, agree Mutually (to vary it),
there is no blame on you, and Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.
004.025
YUSUFALI: If any of you have not the means wherewith to wed
free believing women, they may wed believing girls from among those whom your
right hands possess: And Allah hath full knowledge about your faith. Ye are one
from another: Wed them with the leave of their owners, and give them their
dowers, according to what is reasonable: They should be chaste, not lustful, nor
taking paramours: when they are taken in wedlock, if they fall into shame, their
punishment is half that for free women. This (permission) is for those among you
who fear sin; but it is better for you that ye practise self-restraint. And
Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
004.027
YUSUFALI: Allah doth wish to Turn to you, but the wish of those
who follow their lusts is that ye should turn away (from Him),- far, far away.
004.034
YUSUFALI: Men are the protectors and maintainers of women,
because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they
support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly
obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard.
As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish
them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them
(lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them Means (of
annoyance): For Allah is Most High, great (above you all).
004.035
YUSUFALI: If ye fear a breach between them twain, appoint (two)
arbiters, one from his family, and the other from hers; if they wish for peace,
Allah will cause their reconciliation: For Allah hath full knowledge, and is
acquainted with all things.
004.128
YUSUFALI: If a wife fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's
part, there is no blame on them if they arrange an amicable settlement between
themselves; and such settlement is best; even though men's souls are swayed by
greed. But if ye do good and practise self-restraint, Allah is well-acquainted
with all that ye do.
004.129
YUSUFALI: Ye are never able to be fair and just as between
women, even if it is your ardent desire: But turn not away (from a woman)
altogether, so as to leave her (as it were) hanging (in the air). If ye come to
a friendly understanding, and practise self-restraint, Allah is Oft-forgiving,
Most Merciful.
005.005
YUSUFALI: This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful
unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is
lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who
are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before
your time,- when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not
lewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work,
and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all
spiritual good).
017.032
YUSUFALI: Nor come nigh to adultery: for it is a shameful
(deed) and an evil, opening the road (to other evils).
024.002
YUSUFALI: The woman and the man guilty of adultery or
fornication,- flog each of them with a hundred stripes: Let not compassion move
you in their case, in a matter prescribed by Allah, if ye believe in Allah and
the Last Day: and let a party of the Believers witness their punishment.
024.003
YUSUFALI: Let no man guilty of adultery or fornication marry
and but a woman similarly guilty, or an Unbeliever: nor let any but such a man
or an Unbeliever marry such a woman: to the Believers such a thing is forbidden.
024.004
YUSUFALI: And those who launch a charge against chaste women,
and produce not four witnesses (to support their allegations),- flog them with
eighty stripes; and reject their evidence ever after: for such men are wicked
transgressors;-
024.006
YUSUFALI: And for those who launch a charge against their
spouses, and have (in support) no evidence but their own,- their solitary
evidence (can be received) if they bear witness four times (with an oath) by
Allah that they are solemnly telling the truth;
024.007
YUSUFALI: And the fifth (oath) (should be) that they solemnly
invoke the curse of Allah on themselves if they tell a lie.
024.008
YUSUFALI: But it would avert the punishment from the wife, if
she bears witness four times (with an oath) By Allah, that (her husband) is
telling a lie;
024.009
YUSUFALI: And the fifth (oath) should be that she solemnly
invokes the wrath of Allah on herself if (her accuser) is telling the truth.
024.019
YUSUFALI: Those who love (to see) scandal published broadcast
among the Believers, will have a grievous Penalty in this life and in the
Hereafter: Allah knows, and ye know not.
024.023
YUSUFALI: Those who slander chaste women, indiscreet but
believing, are cursed in this life and in the Hereafter: for them is a grievous
Penalty,-
[al-Noor 24:32] And marry those among you who are single (i.e. a man who has no wife and the woman who has no husband) and (also marry) the Salihoon (pious, fit and capable ones) of your (male) slaves and maid-servants (female slaves). If they be poor, Allah will enrich them out of His Bounty. And Allah is All-Sufficent for His creatures needs, All-Knowing (about the state of the people).
[al-Noor 24:33] And let those who find not the financial means for marriage keep themselves chaste, until Allah enriches them of His Bounty. And such of your slaves as seek a writing (of emancipation), give them such writing, if you know that they are good and trustworthy. And give them something yourselves out of the wealth of Allah which He has bestowed upon you. And force not your maids to prostitution, if they desire chastity, in order that you may make a gain in the (perishable) goods of this worldly life. But if anyone compels them (to prostitution), then after such compulsion, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful (to those women, i.e. He will forgive them because they have been forced to do this evil action unwillingly).
YUSUFALI: It is He Who has created man from water: then has He
established relationships of lineage and marriage: for thy Lord has power (over
all things).
025.068
YUSUFALI: Those who invoke not, with Allah, any other god, nor
slay such life as Allah has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit
fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment.
030.021
YUSUFALI: And among His Signs is this, that He created for you
mates from among yourselves, that ye may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He
has put love and mercy between your (hearts): verily in that are Signs for those
who reflect.
036.056
YUSUFALI: They and their associates will be in groves of (cool)
shade, reclining on Thrones (of dignity);
033.037
YUSUFALI: Behold! Thou didst say to one who had received the
grace of Allah and thy favour: "Retain thou (in wedlock) thy wife, and fear
Allah." But thou didst hide in thy heart that which Allah was about to make
manifest: thou didst fear the people, but it is more fitting that thou shouldst
fear Allah. Then when Zaid had dissolved (his marriage) with her, with the
necessary (formality), We joined her in marriage to thee: in order that (in
future) there may be no difficulty to the Believers in (the matter of) marriage
with the wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have dissolved with the
necessary (formality) (their marriage) with them. And Allah's command must be
fulfilled.
040.008
YUSUFALI: "And grant, our Lord! that they enter the
Gardens of Eternity, which Thou hast promised to them, and to the righteous
among their fathers, their wives, and their posterity! For Thou art (He), the
Exalted in Might, Full of Wisdom.
043.070
YUSUFALI: Enter ye the Garden, ye and your wives, in (beauty
and) rejoicing.
058.001
YUSUFALI: Allah has indeed heard (and accepted) the statement
of the woman who pleads with thee concerning her husband and carries her
complaint (in prayer) to Allah: and Allah (always) hears the arguments between
both sides among you: for Allah hears and sees (all things).
060.010
YUSUFALI: O ye who believe! When there come to you believing women refugees, examine (and test) them: Allah knows best as to their Faith: if ye ascertain that they are Believers, then send them not back to the Unbelievers. They are not lawful (wives) for the Unbelievers, nor are the (Unbelievers) lawful (husbands) for them. But pay the Unbelievers what they have spent (on their dower), and there will be no blame on you if ye marry them on payment of their dower to them. But hold not to the guardianship of unbelieving women: ask for what ye have spent on their dowers, and let the (Unbelievers) ask for what they have spent (on the dowers of women who come over to you). Such is the command of Allah: He judges (with justice) between you. And Allah is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom.
