Verses 1–3 of 3

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    If any of you have not The means wherewith To wed free believing women, They may wed believing Girls from among those Whom your right hands possess: God hath full knowledge About your Faith. Ye are one from another: Wed them with the leave Of their owners, and give them Their dowers, according to what Is reasonable: they should be Chaste, not lustful, nor taking Paramours: when they Are taken in wedlock, If they fall into shame, Their punishment is half That for free women. This (permission) is for those Among you who fear sin; But it is better for you That ye practise self-restraint. And God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

    Surah An-Nisa, verse 4:25
  2. Each word opens its meaning.

    This day are (all) things Good and pure made lawful Unto you. The food Of the People of the Book Is lawful unto you And yours is lawful Unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) Are (not only) chaste women Who are believers, but Chaste women among The People of the Book, Revealed before your time,— When ye give them Their due dowers, and desire Chastity, not lewdness, Nor secret intrigues. If any one rejects faith, Fruitless is his work, And in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks Of those who have lost (All spiritual good).

    Surah Al-Ma'idah, verse 5:5
  3. Each word opens its meaning.

    I called them not To witness the creation Of the heavens and the earth, Nor (even) their own creation: Nor is it for Me To take as helpers Such as lead (men) astray!

    Surah Al-Kahf, verse 18:51
