Read Surah An-Nisa
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ
یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوْا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَكُمْ مِّنْ نَّفْسٍ وَّاحِدَةٍ وَّ خَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا وَ بَثَّ مِنْهُمَا رِجَالًا كَثِیْرًا وَّ نِسَآءً ۚ وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ الَّذِیْ تَسَآءَلُوْنَ بِهٖ وَ الْاَرْحَامَ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ عَلَیْكُمْ رَقِیْبًا۱
O MEN, FEAR your Lord who created you from a single cell, and from it created its mate, and from the two of them dispersed men and women (male and female) in multitudes. So fear God in whose name you ask of one another (the bond of) relationships. God surely keeps watch over you.وَ اٰتُوا الْیَتٰمٰۤی اَمْوَالَهُمْ وَ لَا تَتَبَدَّلُوا الْخَبِیْثَ بِالطَّیِّبِ ۪ وَ لَا تَاْكُلُوْۤا اَمْوَالَهُمْ اِلٰۤی اَمْوَالِكُمْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ حُوْبًا كَبِیْرًا۲
Give to the orphans their possessions, and do not replace things of your own which are bad with things which are good among theirs, and do not intermix their goods with your own and make use of them, for this is a grievous crime.وَ اِنْ خِفْتُمْ اَلَّا تُقْسِطُوْا فِی الْیَتٰمٰی فَانْكِحُوْا مَا طَابَ لَكُمْ مِّنَ النِّسَآءِ مَثْنٰی وَ ثُلٰثَ وَ رُبٰعَ ۚ فَاِنْ خِفْتُمْ اَلَّا تَعْدِلُوْا فَوَاحِدَةً اَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ اَیْمَانُكُمْ ؕ ذٰلِكَ اَدْنٰۤی اَلَّا تَعُوْلُوْاؕ۳
If you fear you cannot be equitable to orphan girls (in your charge, or misuse their persons), then marry women who are lawful for you, two, three, or four; but if you fear you cannot treat so many with equity, marry only one, or a maid or captive. This is better than being iniquitous.وَ اٰتُوا النِّسَآءَ صَدُقٰتِهِنَّ نِحْلَةً ؕ فَاِنْ طِبْنَ لَكُمْ عَنْ شَیْءٍ مِّنْهُ نَفْسًا فَكُلُوْهُ هَنِیْٓـًٔا مَّرِیْٓـًٔا۴
Give to women their dowers willingly, but if they forego part of it themselves, then use it to your advantage.وَ لَا تُؤْتُوا السُّفَهَآءَ اَمْوَالَكُمُ الَّتِیْ جَعَلَ اللّٰهُ لَكُمْ قِیٰمًا وَّ ارْزُقُوْهُمْ فِیْهَا وَ اكْسُوْهُمْ وَ قُوْلُوْا لَهُمْ قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوْفًا۵
Do not entrust (their) property God has given you to maintain (On trust), to those who are immature; but feed them and clothe them from it, and speak to them with kindness.وَ ابْتَلُوا الْیَتٰمٰی حَتّٰۤی اِذَا بَلَغُوا النِّكَاحَ ۚ فَاِنْ اٰنَسْتُمْ مِّنْهُمْ رُشْدًا فَادْفَعُوْۤا اِلَیْهِمْ اَمْوَالَهُمْ ۚ وَ لَا تَاْكُلُوْهَاۤ اِسْرَافًا وَّ بِدَارًا اَنْ یَّكْبَرُوْا ؕ وَ مَنْ كَانَ غَنِیًّا فَلْیَسْتَعْفِفْ ۚ وَ مَنْ كَانَ فَقِیْرًا فَلْیَاْكُلْ بِالْمَعْرُوْفِ ؕ فَاِذَا دَفَعْتُمْ اِلَیْهِمْ اَمْوَالَهُمْ فَاَشْهِدُوْا عَلَیْهِمْ ؕ وَ كَفٰی بِاللّٰهِ حَسِیْبًا۶
And test (and try) the orphans until they are of marriageable age. If you find they have acquired sound judgement, then hand over their property to them; but devour not their wealth, nor use it up hastily out of fear that soon they will grow up (and demand it). And (the guardian) who is rich should abstain from spending much (of their wealth); and he who is poor should use only as much as is fair. And when you give back their possessions have this witnessed, (and remember) that God is sufficient to take all account.لِلرِّجَالِ نَصِیْبٌ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ الْوَالِدٰنِ وَ الْاَقْرَبُوْنَ ۪ وَ لِلنِّسَآءِ نَصِیْبٌ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ الْوَالِدٰنِ وَ الْاَقْرَبُوْنَ مِمَّا قَلَّ مِنْهُ اَوْ كَثُرَ ؕ نَصِیْبًا مَّفْرُوْضًا۷
Men have a share in what the parents and relatives leave behind at death; and women have a share in what the parents and relatives leave behind. Be it large or small a legal share is fixed.وَ اِذَا حَضَرَ الْقِسْمَةَ اُولُوا الْقُرْبٰی وَ الْیَتٰمٰی وَ الْمَسٰكِیْنُ فَارْزُقُوْهُمْ مِّنْهُ وَ قُوْلُوْا لَهُمْ قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوْفًا۸
And when the relatives and orphans and the needy collect at the time of the division (of property) provide for them too, and talk kindly to them.وَ لْیَخْشَ الَّذِیْنَ لَوْ تَرَكُوْا مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ ذُرِّیَّةً ضِعٰفًا خَافُوْا عَلَیْهِمْ ۪ فَلْیَتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَ لْیَقُوْلُوْا قَوْلًا سَدِیْدًا۹
Let people fear the day when they leave small children behind them unprovided, and how concerned they would be for them. So fear God and say the right things to them.اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ یَاْكُلُوْنَ اَمْوَالَ الْیَتٰمٰی ظُلْمًا اِنَّمَا یَاْكُلُوْنَ فِیْ بُطُوْنِهِمْ نَارًا ؕ وَ سَیَصْلَوْنَ سَعِیْرًا۠۱۰
Those who devour the possessions of the orphans unjustly devour only fire, and will surely burn in Hell.
