Verš 2:236
Není pro vás hříchem, rozvedete-li se s ženami svými, dříve než jste se jich dotkli anebo dříve než jste jim určili obvěnění. Dejte jim však zaopatření – zámožný podle prostředků svých a chudý podle prostředků svých – podle zvyklosti uznaných. A to je povinností pro ty, kdož dobré konají.
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
You would not be at fault if you divorce women while you have not touched them (tamassūhunna: also read tumāssūhunna), that is, [while] you have not had sexual intercourse with them, nor appointed any obligation, dowry, for them (the particle mā, ‘while’, relates to the verbal action and is also adverbial) that is to say, there are no sinful consequences for divorcing them if you have not copulated with them or assigned them a dowry, so divorce them; yet make provision of comforts for them honourably, that is, in accordance with the Law (bi’l-ma‘rūf, ‘honourably’, is an adjectival qualification of matā‘an, ‘comforts’), giving them what they can enjoy, the one of ample means, the affluent among you, according to his means, and the needy man, of restricted income, according to his means — an obligation (haqqan, ‘obligation’, is either a second qualifier of matā‘an, ‘comforts’, or an emphatic verbal noun), on the virtuous, the obedient ones.
