Behold! Thou didst say to one who had received the grace of Allah and thy favour: "Retain thou (in wedlock) thy wife, and fear Allah." But thou didst hide in thy heart that which Allah was about to make manifest: thou didst fear the people, but it is more fitting that thou shouldst fear Allah. Then when Zaid had dissolved (his marriage) with her, with the necessary (formality), We joined her in marriage to thee: in order that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the Believers in (the matter of) marriage with the wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have dissolved with the necessary (formality) (their marriage) with them. And Allah's command must be fulfilled.

当时，你对那真主曾施以恩惠，你也曾施以恩惠的人说：“你应当挽留你的妻子，你应当敬畏真主。”你把真主所欲昭示的，隐藏在你的心中，真主是更应当为你所畏惧的，你却畏惧众人。当宰德离绝她的时候，我以她为你的妻子，以免信士们为他们的义子所离绝的妻子而感觉烦难。真主的命令，是必须奉行的。
