Surah 58. Al-Mujadilah, Ayah 2
ٱلَّذِينَ يُظَـٰهِرُونَ مِنكُم مِّن نِّسَآئِهِم مَّا هُنَّ أُمَّهَـٰتِهِمْ ۖ إِنْ أُمَّهَـٰتُهُمْ إِلَّا ٱلَّـٰٓـِٔى وَلَدْنَهُمْ ۚ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَيَقُولُونَ مُنكَرًا مِّنَ ٱلْقَوْلِ وَزُورًا ۚ وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَعَفُوٌّ غَفُورٌ
Alla th eena yu th a hiroona minkum min nis a ihim m a hunna ommah a tihim in ommah a tuhum ill a all a ee waladnahum wainnahum layaqooloona munkaran mina alqawli wazooran wainna All a ha laAAafuwwun ghafoor un As for those of you who [henceforth] separate themselves from their wives by saying, "Thou art as unlawful to me as my mother",3 [let them bear in mind that] they can never be [as] their mothers: none are their mothers save those who gave them birth: and so, behold, they but utter a saying that runs counter to reason,4 and is [therefore] false. But, behold, God is indeed an absolver of sins, much-forgiving:
- Mohammad Asad
Those of you who divorce their wives by Zihar (calling them to be like their mothers) should know that they are not their mothers. Their mothers are only those who gave birth to them. Surely the words they utter are absurd and false. Allah could punish them for this but He forgave them, surely Allah is All-Pardoning, All-Forgiving.
- Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Those of you who 'sinfully' divorce their wives by comparing them to their mothers 'should know that' their wives are in no way their mothers. None can be their mothers except those who gave birth to them. What they say is certainly detestable and false. Yet Allah is truly Ever-Pardoning, All-Forgiving.
- Mustafa Khattab
Such of you as put away your wives (by saying they are as their mothers) They are not their mothers; none are their mothers except those who gave them birth--they indeed utter an ill word and a lie. And lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
- Marmaduke Pickthall
If any men among you divorce their wives by Zihar (calling them mothers) they cannot be their mothers: none can be their mothers except those who gave them birth. And in fact they use words (both) iniquitous and false: but truly Allah is one that blots out (sins) and forgives (again and again). 5332 5333 5334
