ولا تتمنوا ما فضل الله به بعضكم على بعض للرجال نصيب مما اكتسبوا وللنساء نصيب مما اكتسبن واسالوا الله من فضله ان الله كان بكل شيء عليما

And in no wise covet Those things in which God Hath bestowed His gifts More freely on some of you Than on others: to men Is allotted what they earn, And to women what they earn: But ask God of His bounty. For God hath full knowledge Of all things.
