of Allah and the last of the Prophets. Allah has knowledge of all
things.
Believers, remember Allah frequently: praise Him morning and
evening. He and His angels bless you, so that He may lead you from
darkness to the light. He is merciful to true believers.
On the day they meet Him their greeting shall be; 'Peace! ' A rich
rewardHe has prepared for them.
Prophet, We have sent you forth as a witness, a hearer of good
news, and a warner; one who shall call men toAllah by His leave and
guide them like a shining light.
Announce to the believers the good tidings that Allah has
bounteous blessings in store for them. Do not obey the unbelievers
and the hypocrites: disregard their insolence.
Put your trust inAllah ;Allah is yourAll—sufficient Guardian.
Believers, if you marry believing women and divorce them before
the marriage is consummated, you have no right to require them to
observe a waiting period. Provide well for them and release them
honourably.
Prophet,We have made lawful to you the wives to whom you have
granted dowries and those whomyour right hand possesses andwhom
Allah has given you as booty, the daughters of your paternal and
maternal uncles and of your paternal and maternal aunts who
migrated with you; and any other believing woman who gives herself
to you and whom you wished to take in marriage. This is only for you
and not any other believer.
