It is not lawful for you to inherit women by compulsion. And do not make difficulties for them in order to take back part of what you gave them unless they commit a clear immorality. And live with them in kindness. For if you dislike them—perhaps you dislike a thing and Allah makes therein much good.” Verse 20: “And if you want to replace one wife with another and you have given one of them a great amount [in gifts], do not take [back] from it anything. Would you take it in injustice and manifest sin?” Verse 21: “And how could you take it while you have gone in unto each other and they have taken from you a solemn covenant?” 🌟 Importance and Benefits of These Verses: - Protect women’s rights in marriage, divorce, and property. - Condemn oppression, emotional abuse, and unjust behavior in relationships. - Remind believers of the sacred nature of the marital covenant.
