Also (prohibited are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess: Thus hath Allah ordained (Prohibitions) against you: Except for these, all others are lawful, provided ye seek (them in marriage) with gifts from your property,- desiring chastity, not lust, seeing that ye derive benefit from them, give them their dowers (at least) as prescribed; but if, after a dower is prescribed, agree Mutually (to vary it), there is no blame on you, and Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.

Let the women live (in 'iddat) in the same style as ye live, according to your means: Annoy them not, so as to restrict them. And if they carry (life in their wombs), then spend (your substance) on them until they deliver their burden: and if they suckle your (offspring), give them their recompense: and take mutual counsel together, according to what is just and reasonable. And if ye find yourselves in difficulties, let another woman suckle (the child) on the (father's) behalf.

（他又严禁你们娶）有丈夫的妇女，但你们所管辖的妇女除外；真主以此为你们的定制。除此以外，一切妇女，对于你们是合法的，你们可以借自己的财产而谋与妇女结合，但你们应当是贞节的，不可是淫荡的。既与你们成婚的妇女，你们应当把已决定的聘仪交给她们。既决定聘仪之后，你们双方同意的事，对于你们是毫无罪过的。真主确是全知的，确是至睿的。

你们当依自己的能力而使她们住在你们所住的地方，你们不要妨害她们，而使她们烦闷。如果她们有孕，你们就应当供给她们，直到她们分娩。如果她们为你们哺乳，你们应当报酬她们，并且应当依正义而相商。如果你们的意见不合，就让别的妇人为他哺乳。
