Arabic Qur'an with English Translation
Chapter 60: Al-Mumtahana
[10] 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.
[11] And if any of your wives deserts you to the
Unbelievers, and ye have an accession (by the coming over of a woman
from the other side), then pay to those whose wives have deserted
the equivalent of what they had spent (on their dower). And fear
Allah, in Whom ye believe.
[12] O Prophet! When believing women come to thee
to take the oath of fealty to thee, that they will not associate in
worship any other thing whatever with Allah, that they will not
steal, that they will not commit adultery (or fornication), that
they will not kill their children, that they will not utter slander,
intentionally forging falsehood, and that they will not disobey thee
in any just matter; then do thou receive their fealty, and pray to
Allah for the forgiveness (of their sins): for Allah is
Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
