You may defer

whom

you will

of them

or you may take

to yourself

whom

you will

And whoever

you desire

of those whom

you (had) set aside

then (there is) no

blame

upon you

That

(is) more suitable

that

may be cooled

their eyes

and not

they grieve

and they may be pleased

with what

you have given them

all of them

And Allah

knows

what

(is) in

your hearts

And Allah is

And Allah is

All-Knower

Most Forbearing

(It is) not

lawful

for you

(to marry) women

after (this)

after (this)

and not

to

exchange

them

for

(other) wives

even if

pleases you

their beauty

except

whom

you rightfully possess

you rightfully possess

And Allah is

And Allah is

over

all

things

an Observer

O you who believe

O you who believe

O you who believe

(Do) not

enter

(the) houses

(of) the Prophet

except

when

permission is given

to you

for

a meal

without

awaiting

its preparation

But

when

you are invited

then enter

and when

you have eaten

then disperse

and not

seeking to remain

for a conversation

Indeed

that

was

troubling

the Prophet

and he is shy

of (dismissing) you

But Allah

is not shy

is not shy

of

the truth

And when

you ask them

(for) anything

then ask them

from

behind

a screen

That

(is) purer

for your hearts

and their hearts

And not

is

for you

that

you trouble

(the) Messenger

(of) Allah

and not

that

you should marry

his wives

after him

after him

ever

Indeed

that

is

near

Allah

an enormity

Whether

you reveal

a thing

or

conceal it

indeed

Allah

is

of all

things

All-Knower
