when you have divorced your wives and they have reached the end of the period of waiting then keep them honourably or let them go with honour and do not detain them with the intent of harassing lest you should transgress. he who does so will wrong himself. do not mock the decrees of god and remember the favours god has bestowed on you and revealed to you the book and the law to warn you of the consequences of doing wrong. have fear of god and remember god is cognisant of everything.
وإذا طلقتم النساء فبلغن أجلهن فأمسكوهن بمعروف أو سرحوهن بمعروف ولا تمسكوهن ضرارا لتعتدوا ومن يفعل ذلك فقد ظلم نفسه ولا تتخذوا آيات الله هزوا واذكروا نعمت الله عليكم وما أنزل عليكم من الكتاب والحكمة يعظكم به واتقوا الله واعلموا أن الله بكل شيء عليم
