    And be not like a woman Who breaks into untwisted strands The yarn which she has spun, After it has become strong Nor take your oaths to practise Deception between yourselves, Lest one party should be More numerous than another: For God will test you by this; And on the Day of Judgment He will certainly make clear To you (the truth of) that Wherein ye disagree.
