For those who take an oath for abstention from their wives, a waiting for four months is ordained; if then they return, Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

If any of you die and leave widows behind, they shall wait concerning themselves four months and ten days: When they have fulfilled their term, there is no blame on you if they dispose of themselves in a just and reasonable manner. And Allah is well acquainted with what ye do.

Go ye, then, for four months, backwards and forwards, (as ye will), throughout the land, but know ye that ye cannot frustrate Allah (by your falsehood) but that Allah will cover with shame those who reject Him.

Such of your women as have passed the age of monthly courses, for them the prescribed period, if ye have any doubts, is three months, and for those who have no courses (it is the same): for those who carry (life within their wombs), their period is until they deliver their burdens: and for those who fear Allah, He will make their path easy.

盟誓不与妻子交接的人，当期待四个月；如果他们回心转意，那末，真主确是至赦的，确是至慈的。

你们中弃世而遗留妻子的人，他们的妻子当期待四个月零十日；待婚满期的时候，她们关於自身的合理的行为，对於你们毫无罪过。真主对於你们的行为是彻知的。

（以物配主者啊！）你们可以在地面上漫游四个月，你们须知自己不能逃避真主的谴责，（须知）真主是要凌辱不信道者的。

你们的妇女中对月经已绝望的，如果你们怀疑，就以三个月为她们的待婚期，还没有月经的，也是这样的；怀孕的，以分娩为满期。谁敬畏真主，他将使谁顺利。
