وَإِنِ And if wa-ini a woman im'ra-atun fears khāfat from min her husband baʿlihā ill-conduct nushūzan or aw desertion iʿ'rāḍan then (there is) no falā sin junāḥa on both of them ʿalayhimā that an they make terms of peace yuṣ'liḥā between themselves baynahumā a reconciliation ṣul'ḥan and [the] reconciliation wal-ṣul'ḥu (is) best khayrun And are swayed wa-uḥ'ḍirati the souls l-anfusu (by) greed l-shuḥa But if wa-in you do good tuḥ'sinū and fear (Allah) watattaqū then indeed fa-inna Allah l-laha is kāna of what bimā you do taʿmalūna All-Aware khabīran
And if a woman fears from her husband contempt or evasion, there is no sin upon them if they make terms of settlement between them - and settlement is best. And present in [human] souls is stinginess. But if you do good and fear Allāh - then indeed Allāh is ever, of what you do, Aware.
وَلَن And never walan will you be able tastaṭīʿū to an deal justly taʿdilū between bayna [the] women l-nisāi even if walaw you desired ḥaraṣtum but (do) not falā incline tamīlū (with) all kulla the inclination l-mayli and leave her (the other) fatadharūhā like the suspended one kal-muʿalaqati And if wa-in you reconcile tuṣ'liḥū and fear (Allah) watattaqū then indeed fa-inna Allah l-laha is kāna Oft-Forgiving ghafūran Most Merciful raḥīman
And you will never be able to be equal [in feeling] between wives, even if you should strive [to do so]. So do not incline completely [toward one] and leave another hanging. And if you amend [your affairs] and fear Allāh - then indeed, Allāh is ever Forgiving and Merciful.
وَإِن And if wa-in they separate yatafarraqā will be enriched yugh'ni (by) Allah l-lahu each (of them) kullan from min His abundance saʿatihi and is wakāna Allah l-lahu All-Encompassing wāsiʿan All-Wise ḥakīman
But if they separate [by divorce], Allāh will enrich each [of them] from His abundance. And ever is Allāh Encompassing and Wise.
