Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 227

ٱلطَّلَٰقُ مَرَّتَانِۖ فَإِمۡسَاكُۢ بِمَعۡرُوفٍ أَوۡ تَسۡرِيحُۢ بِإِحۡسَٰنٖۗ وَلَا يَحِلُّ لَكُمۡ أَن تَأۡخُذُواْ مِمَّآ ءَاتَيۡتُمُوهُنَّ شَيۡـًٔا إِلَّآ أَن يَخَافَآ أَلَّا يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ ٱللَّهِۖ فَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ أَلَّا يُقِيمَا حُدُودَ ٱللَّهِ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡهِمَا فِيمَا ٱفۡتَدَتۡ بِهِۦۗ تِلۡكَ حُدُودُ ٱللَّهِ فَلَا تَعۡتَدُوهَاۚ وَمَن يَتَعَدَّ حُدُودَ ٱللَّهِ فَأُوْلَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلظَّـٰلِمُونَ

229. Divorce is twice (545). Thereafter (a woman) must be retained with good (546) or released with kindness. And it is not lawful for you to take back (547) from her anything that you (husbands) have given them (wives). But, if both fear that they could not keep in the limits of Allah. Then, if you fear that the two (548) will not be able to observe the limits of Allah, it is no offence for them, for that of which the woman ransoms herself (549). These are the limits of Allah, so do not transgress them and those who transgress the limits of Allah, it is they who are the unjust.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 229

وَإِذَا طَلَّقۡتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فَبَلَغۡنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَأَمۡسِكُوهُنَّ بِمَعۡرُوفٍ أَوۡ سَرِّحُوهُنَّ بِمَعۡرُوفٖۚ وَلَا تُمۡسِكُوهُنَّ ضِرَارٗا لِّتَعۡتَدُواْۚ وَمَن يَفۡعَلۡ ذَٰلِكَ فَقَدۡ ظَلَمَ نَفۡسَهُۥۚ وَلَا تَتَّخِذُوٓاْ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ هُزُوٗاۚ وَٱذۡكُرُواْ نِعۡمَتَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَمَآ أَنزَلَ عَلَيۡكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ وَٱلۡحِكۡمَةِ يَعِظُكُم بِهِۦۚ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءٍ عَلِيمٞ

231.And when you have divorced women and they have completed the prescribed period, retain them with honour and release them (553) with kindness. And do not retain them intending harm that you may transgress the limit(554). And whoever does so, wrongs only himself (555). And do not mock(556) at the revelations of Allah and remember the favour (557) of Allah upon you and what has been revealed to you of the Scripture (Quran) and wisdom (Prophet's Sunnah) (558), admonishing you with it. And remain fearing Allah, and know, surely, Allah is the Best Knower of everything (559).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 231

وَإِذَا طَلَّقۡتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فَبَلَغۡنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَلَا تَعۡضُلُوهُنَّ أَن يَنكِحۡنَ أَزۡوَٰجَهُنَّ إِذَا تَرَٰضَوۡاْ بَيۡنَهُم بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِۗ ذَٰلِكَ يُوعَظُ بِهِۦ مَن كَانَ مِنكُمۡ يُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِۗ ذَٰلِكُمۡ أَزۡكَىٰ لَكُمۡ وَأَطۡهَرُۚ وَٱللَّهُ يَعۡلَمُ وَأَنتُمۡ لَا تَعۡلَمُونَ

232. And when you have divorced women and their Iddat (prescribed period) is complete, do not prevent them from marrying (560) their husbands, when they agree among themselves according to (Islamic) law(561). This instruction is given to those among you who believe in Allah and the Last Day. This is cleaner and purer (562) for you. Verily, Allah Knows and you do not know (563).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 232

وَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ فِيمَا عَرَّضۡتُم بِهِۦ مِنۡ خِطۡبَةِ ٱلنِّسَآءِ أَوۡ أَكۡنَنتُمۡ فِيٓ أَنفُسِكُمۡۚ عَلِمَ ٱللَّهُ أَنَّكُمۡ سَتَذۡكُرُونَهُنَّ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُوَاعِدُوهُنَّ سِرًّا إِلَّآ أَن تَقُولُواْ قَوۡلٗا مَّعۡرُوفٗاۚ وَلَا تَعۡزِمُواْ عُقۡدَةَ ٱلنِّكَاحِ حَتَّىٰ يَبۡلُغَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبُ أَجَلَهُۥۚ وَٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَعۡلَمُ مَا فِيٓ أَنفُسِكُمۡ فَٱحۡذَرُوهُۚ وَٱعۡلَمُوٓاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌ حَلِيمٞ

235. And there is no sin on you in that you propose to such women for marriage by indirect hint or conceal what you have in your hearts. Allah knows that soon you will remember them. But, make no secret contract (576) with them, except to say to them only that which is known in law. And do not resolve any marriage ties (577) until the prescribed period reaches its end. And know that Allah knows what is in your heart (578), so fear Him (579) and know that Allah on Forgiving, Forbearing.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 235

لَّا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ إِن طَلَّقۡتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ مَا لَمۡ تَمَسُّوهُنَّ أَوۡ تَفۡرِضُواْ لَهُنَّ فَرِيضَةٗۚ وَمَتِّعُوهُنَّ عَلَى ٱلۡمُوسِعِ قَدَرُهُۥ وَعَلَى ٱلۡمُقۡتِرِ قَدَرُهُۥ مَتَٰعَۢا بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِۖ حَقًّا عَلَى ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

236. There is no demand against you if you divorce women whom you have not even touched (580), or have not fixed for them their dowry (581). And the wealthy should give them something to carry on (582) for use, according to his capability. And the poor (man) according to his capability. This is incumbent on the well doers(583).

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 236

وَإِن طَلَّقۡتُمُوهُنَّ مِن قَبۡلِ أَن تَمَسُّوهُنَّ وَقَدۡ فَرَضۡتُمۡ لَهُنَّ فَرِيضَةٗ فَنِصۡفُ مَا فَرَضۡتُمۡ إِلَّآ أَن يَعۡفُونَ أَوۡ يَعۡفُوَاْ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِهِۦ عُقۡدَةُ ٱلنِّكَاحِۚ وَأَن تَعۡفُوٓاْ أَقۡرَبُ لِلتَّقۡوَىٰۚ وَلَا تَنسَوُاْ ٱلۡفَضۡلَ بَيۡنَكُمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ

237. And if you divorced them without touching them (584), but you have already fixed for them a dowry, then half of what you fixed is incumbent. Unless the wives forego (their right) (585) or he gives more in whose hands is the marriage tie (586). And (O men) if you give more, it is nearer to piety (587). And never forget to deal with each other gracefully among yourselves (588). Surely, Allah is fully observant of what you do.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 237

عَسَىٰ رَبُّهُۥٓ إِن طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَن يُبۡدِلَهُۥٓ أَزۡوَٰجًا خَيۡرٗا مِّنكُنَّ مُسۡلِمَٰتٖ مُّؤۡمِنَٰتٖ قَٰنِتَٰتٖ تَـٰٓئِبَٰتٍ عَٰبِدَٰتٖ سَـٰٓئِحَٰتٖ ثَيِّبَٰتٖ وَأَبۡكَارٗا

5. It is possible that if he divorces (18) you, his Lord will give him in your place, wives better (19) than you, submissive, faithful, obedient, repentant, devoted (20) to Salaah and fasting, whether widows or virgins (21).
