እናቶችም ልጆቻቸውን ሙሉ የኾኑን ሁለት ዓመታት ያጥቡ ፡ ፡ ( ይህም ) ማጥባትን መሙላት ለሻ ሰው ነው ፡ ፡ ለእርሱም በተወለደለት ( አባት ) ላይ ምግባቸውና ልብሳቸው በችሎታው ልክ አለበት ፡ ፡ ነፍስ ችሎታዋን እንጂ አትገደድም ፡ ፡ ወላጂት ( እናት ) በልጅዋ ምክንያት ለርሱ የተወለደለትም ( አባት ) በልጁ ምክንያት አይጎዳዱ ፡ ፡ በወራሽም ላይ እንደዚሁ ብጤ አለበት ፡ ፡ ( ወላጆቹ ) ከሁለቱም በኾነ መዋደድና መመካከር ( ልጁን ከጡት ) መነጠልን ቢፈልጉ በሁለቱም ላይ ኃጢኣት የለባቸውም ፡ ፡ ልጆቻችሁንም ለሌሎች አጥቢዎች ማስጠባትን ብትፈልጉ ልትሰጡ የሻችሁትን በመልካም ኹኔታ በሰጣችሁ ጊዜ ( በማስጠባታችሁ ) በእናንተ ላይ ኃጢኣት የለባችሁም ፡ ፡ አላህንም ፍሩ ፤ አላህም የምትሠሩትን ሁሉ ተመልካች መኾኑን ዕወቁ ፡ ፡
And mothers shall breast-feed their children for two full years – for those who wish to complete the term of milk feeding ; and the father of the child must provide for food and clothing of the mother in accordance with custom ; no one will be burdened except with what he can bear ; a mother should not be harmed because of her child , nor he to whom the child is born be harmed because of his child ( or a mother should not harm the child nor he to whom the child is born should harm the child ) ; and the same is incumbent on the guardian in place of the father ; then if the parents desire to wean the child by mutual consent and consultation , it is no sin for them ; and if you wish to give your children out to a ( milk feeding ) nurse , it is no sin for you , provided you pay to them what is agreed , with kindness ; and keep fearing Allah , and know well that Allah is seeing what you do .
