The Majestic Quran

10 Believers, when believing migrant women come to you, investigate them. God knows well their faith. If you find them to be believers, then don’t return them to the disbelievers. Neither are they lawful for them, nor believing women lawful for them. Give the disbelievers what they have spent on them . 8 There would be nothing wrong if you were to marry them after giving their bridal gift. You should not hold on to marriage ties with disbelieving women; ask for what you have spent on them, just as the Makkan disbelievers will ask for what they have spent on them . 9 That is God’s judgement. God makes fair judgements between you, and God is the Knower, the Wise. 11 If any of your wives went back to the disbelievers in Makkah, and afterwards you gained victory over them, pay those whose wives fled the equivalent of the bridal gift they had given them. Fear God, the One you believe. W ’ 12 Prophet! When believing women come to you to take an oath of allegiance, accept their oath: they will not associate any partner with God, nor steal, nor commit adultery, nor murder their children, nor lie about who has fathered their children, nor disobey you in common good. And seek God’s forgiveness for them. God is the Forgiving, the Caring. 13 Believers, don’t befriend a people with whom God was angry; they are hopeless of success in the Hereafter, just like the disbelievers are hopeless about the dead people in the graves.
