والذين يتوفون منكم ويذرون ازواجا وصية لازواجهم متاعا الى الحول غير اخراج فان خرجن فلا جناح عليكم في ما فعلن في انفسهن من معروف والله عزيز حكيم

Those of you Who die and leave widows Should bequeath For their widows A year's maintenance And residence; But if they leave (The residence), There is no blame on you For what they do With themselves, Provided it is reasonable. And God is Exalted in Power, Wise.
