If any of you have not the means wherewith to wed free believing women, they may wed believing girls from among those whom your right hands possess: And Allah hath full knowledge about your faith. Ye are one from another: Wed them with the leave of their owners, and give them their dowers, according to what is reasonable: They should be chaste, not lustful, nor taking paramours: when they are taken in wedlock, if they fall into shame, their punishment is half that for free women. This (permission) is for those among you who fear sin; but it is better for you that ye practise self-restraint. And Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

你们当中在能力方面谁不能娶信道的自由女，谁可以娶友所管辖的信道的奴婢。真主是知道你们的信仰的。你们彼此是同教的，故你们取得她们的主人的许可后，可娶她们为妻室，你们应当把她们的聘仪照例交给她们，但她们应当是贞节的，不可是淫荡的，也不可是有情人的。她们既婚之后，如果作了丑事，那末，她们应受自由女所应受的刑罚的一半。这是特许你们中恐陷于奸淫的人规定的。你们能坚忍，那对于你们是更好的。真主是至赦的，是至慈的。
