Read Surah At-Talaq

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

یٰۤاَیُّهَا النَّبِیُّ اِذَا طَلَّقْتُمُ النِّسَآءَ فَطَلِّقُوْهُنَّ لِعِدَّتِهِنَّ وَ اَحْصُوا الْعِدَّةَ ۚ وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ رَبَّكُمْ ۚ لَا تُخْرِجُوْهُنَّ مِنْۢ بُیُوْتِهِنَّ وَ لَا یَخْرُجْنَ اِلَّاۤ اَنْ یَّاْتِیْنَ بِفَاحِشَةٍ مُّبَیِّنَةٍ ؕ وَ تِلْكَ حُدُوْدُ اللّٰهِ ؕ وَ مَنْ یَّتَعَدَّ حُدُوْدَ اللّٰهِ فَقَدْ ظَلَمَ نَفْسَهٗ ؕ لَا تَدْرِیْ لَعَلَّ اللّٰهَ یُحْدِثُ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ اَمْرًا۝۱

O PROPHET WHEN you divorce women, divorce them at their appointed period, and calculate that period, and fear God, your Lord. Do not expel them from their houses, nor should they go away themselves, unless they are openly guilty of adultery. These are the limits set by God. Any one who exceeds the limits set by God sins against his own self. You never know that God may perchance lead to a new situation after this.

فَاِذَا بَلَغْنَ اَجَلَهُنَّ فَاَمْسِكُوْهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوْفٍ اَوْ فَارِقُوْهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوْفٍ وَّ اَشْهِدُوْا ذَوَیْ عَدْلٍ مِّنْكُمْ وَ اَقِیْمُوا الشَّهَادَةَ لِلّٰهِ ؕ ذٰلِكُمْ یُوْعَظُ بِهٖ مَنْ كَانَ یُؤْمِنُ بِاللّٰهِ وَ الْیَوْمِ الْاٰخِرِ ؕ۬ وَ مَنْ یَّتَّقِ اللّٰهَ یَجْعَلْ لَّهٗ مَخْرَجًاۙ۝۲

When they have reached their appointed time, then either keep them lawfully or let them go honourably; but have two witnesses from among you, and give truthful evidence for (being acceptable to) God. This is to warn him who believes in God and the Last Day. God will furnish a way out for him who fears Him,

وَّ یَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَیْثُ لَا یَحْتَسِبُ ؕ وَ مَنْ یَّتَوَكَّلْ عَلَی اللّٰهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهٗ ؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ بَالِغُ اَمْرِهٖ ؕ قَدْ جَعَلَ اللّٰهُ لِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدْرًا۝۳

And provide for him from where he does not reckon. God is sufficient for him who places his trust in Him. Certainly God fulfills His purpose. God has indeed fixed a measure of everything.

وَ الّٰٓـِٔیْ یَىِٕسْنَ مِنَ الْمَحِیْضِ مِنْ نِّسَآىِٕكُمْ اِنِ ارْتَبْتُمْ فَعِدَّتُهُنَّ ثَلٰثَةُ اَشْهُرٍ ۙ وَّ الّٰٓـِٔیْ لَمْ یَحِضْنَ ؕ وَ اُولَاتُ الْاَحْمَالِ اَجَلُهُنَّ اَنْ یَّضَعْنَ حَمْلَهُنَّ ؕ وَ مَنْ یَّتَّقِ اللّٰهَ یَجْعَلْ لَّهٗ مِنْ اَمْرِهٖ یُسْرًا۝۴

As for your women who have lost hope of menstruation, and in case you have a doubt, the prescribed period (of waiting) for them is three months, as also for those who have not menstruated yet. As for those who are pregnant, their prescribed period is until the delivery of the child. God will make things easy for him who is mindful of God.

ذٰلِكَ اَمْرُ اللّٰهِ اَنْزَلَهٗۤ اِلَیْكُمْ ؕ وَ مَنْ یَّتَّقِ اللّٰهَ یُكَفِّرْ عَنْهُ سَیِّاٰتِهٖ وَ یُعْظِمْ لَهٗۤ اَجْرًا۝۵

This is the commandment of God that is sent down to you. God will forgive the ills of those who fear Him, and increase their reward.

اَسْكِنُوْهُنَّ مِنْ حَیْثُ سَكَنْتُمْ مِّنْ وُّجْدِكُمْ وَ لَا تُضَآرُّوْهُنَّ لِتُضَیِّقُوْا عَلَیْهِنَّ ؕ وَ اِنْ كُنَّ اُولَاتِ حَمْلٍ فَاَنْفِقُوْا عَلَیْهِنَّ حَتّٰی یَضَعْنَ حَمْلَهُنَّ ۚ فَاِنْ اَرْضَعْنَ لَكُمْ فَاٰتُوْهُنَّ اُجُوْرَهُنَّ ۚ وَ اْتَمِرُوْا بَیْنَكُمْ بِمَعْرُوْفٍ ۚ وَ اِنْ تَعَاسَرْتُمْ فَسَتُرْضِعُ لَهٗۤ اُخْرٰیؕ۝۶

House the (divorced) women where you live, according to your means; but do not harass them so as to reduce them to straitened circumstances. If they are pregnant, then spend on them until they give birth to the child. And if they suckle the child for you, then make the due payment to them, and consult each other appropriately. But if you find this difficult, let some other woman suckle (the child) for her.

لِیُنْفِقْ ذُوْ سَعَةٍ مِّنْ سَعَتِهٖ ؕ وَ مَنْ قُدِرَ عَلَیْهِ رِزْقُهٗ فَلْیُنْفِقْ مِمَّاۤ اٰتٰىهُ اللّٰهُ ؕ لَا یُكَلِّفُ اللّٰهُ نَفْسًا اِلَّا مَاۤ اٰتٰىهَا ؕ سَیَجْعَلُ اللّٰهُ بَعْدَ عُسْرٍ یُّسْرًا۠۝۷

Let the man of means spend according to his means, and he whose means are limited, should spend of what God has given him. God does not burden a soul beyond what He has given him. God will bring ease after hardship.

وَ كَاَیِّنْ مِّنْ قَرْیَةٍ عَتَتْ عَنْ اَمْرِ رَبِّهَا وَ رُسُلِهٖ فَحَاسَبْنٰهَا حِسَابًا شَدِیْدًا ۙ وَّ عَذَّبْنٰهَا عَذَابًا نُّكْرًا۝۸

How many habitations rebelled against their Lord´s command and His apostles; but We took them to severe task, and punished them with the harshest punishment.

فَذَاقَتْ وَبَالَ اَمْرِهَا وَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ اَمْرِهَا خُسْرًا۝۹

So they tasted the pain of their actions; and the consequence of their deeds was ruin.

اَعَدَّ اللّٰهُ لَهُمْ عَذَابًا شَدِیْدًا ۙ فَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ یٰۤاُولِی الْاَلْبَابِ ۛۖۚ۬ الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا ۛ۫ؕ قَدْ اَنْزَلَ اللّٰهُ اِلَیْكُمْ ذِكْرًاۙ۝۱۰

God has prepared for them severe punishment. So, you men of wisdom, and those who believe, take heed for yourselves and fear God. God has indeed sent down a Reminder for you,
