The Majestic Quran

Finally, it gives them the example of two wonderful women; Asiya, the wife of the Pharaoh, and Mary the Virgin , the mother of Jesus . In the name of God, the Kind, the Caring. T 1 Prophet, why do you – desiring to please your wives – avoi d 3 things that God has made lawful for you? God is Forgiving, Caring. 2 God has ordered for you that you make up for your unfulfilled oaths. God is your Master; He is the Knower, the Wise. 3 Remember when the Prophet shared a secret with one of his wives, and when she disclosed it to another God informed him about it; he confirmed part of it and kept the other secret. So when he informed her about this she said, “Who has told you this?” He replied, “The Knower, the Aware told me.” 4 Both of you wives should repent before God; your hearts have already inclined towards seeking forgiveness . Were you to assist one another against him, remember that God is his Protector, so is Gabriel; the righteous believers and all the angels after that are his helpers. 5 Were he to divorce you, his Lord would give him better wives in your place, those who are submitting, believers, obedient, repentant, devout, fasting, and some previously married and others virgins. T ’ H 6 Believers, protect yourselves and your families from a fire whose fuel is humanity and their stone idols ; it will be controlled by fierce, stern angels who don’t disobey God in what He commands them to do, and they do what they are told to do. 7 Disbelievers, don’t make excuses today; you will only be repaid for what you used to do. 8 Believers, turn to God in sincere repentance. Your Lord may forgive your sins, and admit you into gardens with rivers flowing beneath them, the Day that God will neither humiliate the Prophet nor those who believed. Their light will be beaming in front of them and on their right, and they will pray: “Our Lord, perfect our light for us and forgive us, You control all things.” T
