1. Qad samiAAa Allahu qawla allatee tujadiluka fee zawjiha watashtakee ila Allahi waAllahu yasmaAAu tahawurakuma inna Allaha sameeAAun baseerUn
1. God has indeed
Heard (and accepted) the statement
Of the woman who pleads
With thee concerning her husband
And carries her complaint
(In prayer) to God:
And God (always) hears
The arguments between both
Sides among you: for God
Hears and sees (all things).
2. Allatheena yu"th"ahiroona minkum min nisa-ihim ma hunna ommahatihim in ommahatuhum illa alla-ee waladnahum wa-innahum layaqooloona munkaran mina alqawli wazooran wa-inna Allaha laAAafuwwun ghafoorUn
2. If any men among you
Divorce their wives by
(Calling them mothers),
They cannot be their mothers:
None can be their mothers
Except those who gave them
Birth. And in fact
They use words (both) iniquitous
And false: but truly
God is One that blots out
(Sins), and forgives
(Again and again).
3. WaAllatheena yu"th"ahiroona min nisa-ihim thumma yaAAoodoona lima qaloo fatahreeru raqabatin min qabli an yatamassa thalikum tooAAa"th"oona bihi waAllahu bima taAAmaloona khabeerUn
