وَأَنكِحُوا۟ And marry wa-ankiḥū the single l-ayāmā among you minkum and the righteous wal-ṣāliḥīna among min your male slaves ʿibādikum and your female slaves wa-imāikum If in they are yakūnū poor fuqarāa Allah will enrich them yugh'nihimu Allah will enrich them l-lahu from min His Bounty faḍlihi And Allah wal-lahu (is) All-Encompassing wāsiʿun All-Knowing ʿalīmun
And marry the unmarried among you and the righteous among your male slaves and female slaves. If they should be poor, Allāh will enrich them from His bounty, and Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
وَلْيَسْتَعْفِفِ And let be chaste walyastaʿfifi those who alladhīna (do) not lā find yajidūna (means for) marriage nikāḥan until ḥattā Allah enriches them yugh'niyahumu Allah enriches them l-lahu from min His Bounty faḍlihi And those who wa-alladhīna seek yabtaghūna the writing l-kitāba from (those) whom mimmā possess malakat your right hands aymānukum then give them (the) writing fakātibūhum if in you know ʿalim'tum in them fīhim any good khayran and give them waātūhum from min the wealth of Allah māli the wealth of Allah l-lahi which alladhī He has given you ātākum And (do) not walā compel tuk'rihū your slave girls fatayātikum to ʿalā [the] prostitution l-bighāi if in they desire aradna chastity taḥaṣṣunan that you may seek litabtaghū temporary gain ʿaraḍa (of) the life l-ḥayati (of) the world l-dun'yā And whoever waman compels them yuk'rihhunna then indeed fa-inna Allah l-laha after min after baʿdi their compulsion ik'rāhihinna (is) Oft-Forgiving ghafūrun Most Merciful raḥīmun
But let them who find not [the means for] marriage abstain [from sexual relations] until Allāh enriches them from His bounty. And those who seek a contract [for eventual emancipation] from among whom your right hands possess - then make a contract with them if you know there is within them goodness and give them from the wealth of Allāh which He has given you. And do not compel your slave girls to prostitution, if they desire chastity, to seek [thereby] the temporary interests of worldly life. And if someone should compel them, then indeed, Allāh is [to them], after their compulsion, Forgiving and Merciful.

And We have certainly sent down to you distinct verses and examples from those who passed on before you and an admonition for those who fear Allāh.
