And (prohibited are) the ones who are married

of

the women

except

whom

you possess

rightfully

Decree

(of) Allah

upon you

And are lawful

to you

what

(is) beyond

that

that

you seek

with your wealth

desiring to be chaste

not

(to be) lustful

So what

you benefit[ed]

of it

from them

so you give them

their bridal due

(as) an obligation

And (there is) no

sin

on you

concerning what

you mutually agree

of it

from

beyond

the obligation

Indeed

Allah

is

All-Knowing

All-Wise

And whoever

(is) not

able to

among you

afford

to

marry

the free chaste

[the] believing women

then (marry) from

what

possess[ed]

your right hands

of

your slave girls

(of) the believers

And Allah

knows best

about your faith

You

(are) from

(one) another

So marry them

with (the) permission

(of) their family

and give them

their bridal due

in a fair manner

(They should be) chaste

not

those who commit immorality

and not

those who take

secret lovers

Then when

they are married

and if

they commit

adultery

then for them

(is) half

(of) what

(is) on

the free chaste women

of

the punishment

That

(is) for whoever

fears

committing sin

among you

and that

you be patient

(is) better

for you

And Allah

(is) Oft-Forgiving

Most Merciful

Wishes

Allah

to make clear

to you

and to guide you

(to) ways

(of) those

from

before you

and (to) accept repentance

from you

And Allah

(is) All-Knowing

All-Wise
