عَالَمِين AALAMIN Read the Qur'an in context

Does the Qur'an allow marrying cousins?

In short

  • The text says: the women forbidden in marriage are named - mothers, daughters, sisters, paternal and maternal aunts, a brother's daughters and a sister's daughters, foster-mothers and sisters through nursing, wives' mothers, stepdaughters, the wives of sons, and two sisters together (4:23); those outside these limits are permitted (4:24); and the daughters of the Prophet's paternal and maternal uncles and aunts who emigrated with him are named among those permitted to him (33:50).
  • The text does not say: the word cousin; it names the daughters of uncles and aunts.
  • The rest comes from: outside the Qur'an; no source for it is named here.

Where the renderings split

33:50, Itani: "the daughters of your paternal uncle, and the daughters of your paternal aunts"

33:50, Pickthall: "the daughters of thine uncle on the father's side"

33:50, Palmer: "the daughters of thy paternal uncle"

33:50, Rodwell: "the daughters of thy uncle"

33:50, Sale: "the daughters of thy uncle, and the daughters of thy aunts"

Key findingsEditorial

One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.

  1. 01 4:23 The women forbidden in marriage, named one by one: cousins are not among them
  2. 02 4:24 Lawful are all beyond those named
  3. 03 33:50 The daughters of the Prophet's paternal and maternal uncles and aunts named among those made lawful to him
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation

Written by the editors. Not a translation, and not a source. It is an editorial restatement of the verses in this study and carries their name because someone has to answer for it.

The text lists the women a man may not marry, and cousins are not on the list. At 4:23 Pickthall names "your father's sisters, and your mother's sisters, and your brother's daughters and your sister's daughters": aunts and nieces, and no daughter of an uncle or an aunt.

At 4:24 the list closes: Pickthall has "Lawful unto you are all beyond those mentioned".

At 33:50 the daughters of uncles and aunts are named outright, among those made lawful to the Prophet: Itani has "the daughters of your paternal uncle, and the daughters of your paternal aunts", and Rodwell has "the daughters of thy uncle, and of thy paternal and maternal aunts who fled with thee to Medina".

So the text forbids no cousin by name, and at 33:50 names cousins as lawful to the Prophet. It does not use the word cousin.

not a scholar — what this signature means

I am not a scholar, and nothing here asks you to treat me as one. The plain words on this site are my restatement of what the five translations shown above say, together with counts derived from the text itself — nothing more. I sign them so that a named person is accountable for every sentence, not so you'll take my word for anything. The authority on this page is the text and its translators. If my words don't match theirs, mine are the ones that are wrong.

Scope of this study

This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.

What this rests on

Opens with 4:23, widening across 3 passages in all.

Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

The versesSource fact 3 passages, each with every cleared translation

3 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.

Each verse opens on the translation that comes first in the site's fixed order, which runs from the newest translation to the oldest. The order is not a preference. Open Compare translations on any verse to read the others.

Förbjudna för er [att ta till hustrur] är era mödrar, döttrar och systrar; era fastrar och mostrar; era brorsdöttrar och systerdöttrar; era fostermödrar som ammat er och era disystrar; era svärmödrar; era styvdöttrar som står under er vård och är födda av hustrur med vilka ni fullbordat äktenskapet – men om ni inte fullbordat äktenskapet med dem är det ingen synd för er – och era egna söners hustrur; samt att förena två systrar i äktenskap samtidigt, förutom det som redan har skett. Gud är ständigt förlåtande, barmhärtig.

Analarınız, kızlarınız, kız kardeşleriniz, halalarınız, teyzeleriniz, erkek kardeş kızları, kız kardeş kızları, sizi emziren süt anneleriniz, süt kardeşleriniz, karılarınızın anaları, kendileriyle gerdeğe girmiş olduğunuz karılarınızdan olup evlerinizde büyüttüğünüz üvey kızlarınız, -Eğer analarıyla zifafa girmemiş iseniz (annelerini boşayıp, onlarla nikâh kıymanızda) bir sakınca yoktur- kendi öz oğullarınızın karıları ve iki kız kardeşi birden almanız size haram kılınmıştır. Ancak geçen geçmiştir. (Bu sebeple üzerinize bir günah yoktur). Allah, şüphesiz çok bağışlayıcı ve merhamet edendir.

Talal Itani2012 And all married women, except those you rightfully possess. This is God's decree, binding upon you. Permitted for you are those that lie outside these limits, provided you seek them in legal marriage, with gifts from your property, seeking wedlock, not prostitution. If you wish to enjoy them, then give them their dowry-a legal obligation. You commit no error by agreeing to any change to the dowry. God is All-Knowing, Most Wise.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess. It is a decree of Allah for you. Lawful unto you are all beyond those mentioned, so that ye seek them with your wealth in honest wedlock, not debauchery. And those of whom ye seek content (by marrying them), give unto them their portions as a duty. And there is no sin for you in what ye do by mutual agreement after the duty (hath been done). Lo! Allah is ever Knower, Wise

Edward Henry Palmer1880 and married women, save such as your right hands possess,- God's Book against you! - but lawful for you is all besides this, for you to seek them with your wealth, marrying them and not fornicating; but such of them as ye have enjoyed, give them their hire as a lawful due; for there is no crime in you about what ye agree between you after such lawful due, verily, God is knowing and wise

John Medows Rodwell1861 Forbidden to you also are married women, except those who are in your hands as slaves: This is the law of God for you. And it is allowed you, beside this, to seek out wives by means of your wealth, with modest conduct, and without fornication. And give those with whom ye have cohabited their dowry. This is the law. But it shall be no crime in you to make agreements over and above the law. Verily, God is Knowing, Wise

George Sale1734 Ye are also forbidden to take to wife free women who are married, except those women whom your right hands shall possess as slaves. This is ordained you from God. Whatever is beside this, is allowed you; that ye may with your substance provide wives for your selves, acting that which is right, and avoiding whoredom. And for the advantage which ye receive from them, give them their reward, according to what is ordained: But it shall be no crime in you to make any other agreement among your selves, after the ordinance shall be complied with; for God is knowing and wise

The translators word this verse differently

Talal Itani2012 If any of you lack the means to marry free believing women, he may marry one of the believing maids under your control. God is well aware of your faith. You are from one another. Marry them with the permission of their guardians, and give them their recompense fairly-to be protected-neither committing adultery, nor taking secret lovers. When they are married, if they commit adultery, their punishment shall be half that of free women. That is for those among you who fear falling into decadence. But to practice self-restraint is better for you. God is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 And whoso is not able to afford to marry free, believing women, let them marry from the believing maids whom your right hands possess. Allah knoweth best (concerning) your faith. Ye (proceed) one from another; so wed them by permission of their folk, and give unto them their portions in kindness, they being honest, not debauched nor of loose conduct. And if when they are honourably married they commit lewdness they shall incur the half of the punishment (prescribed) for free women (in that case). This is for him among you who feareth to commit sin. But to have patience would be better for you. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful

Edward Henry Palmer1880 But whosoever of you cannot go the length of marrying marriageable women who believe, then take of what your right hands possess, of your maidens who believe;- though God knows best about your faith. Ye come one from the other; then marry them with the permission of their people, and give them their hire in reason, they being chaste and not fornicating, and not receivers of paramours. But when they are married, if they commit fornication, then inflict upon them half the penalty for married women; that is for whomsoever of you fears wrong; but that ye should have patience is better for you, and God is forgiving and merciful

John Medows Rodwell1861 And whoever of you is not rich enough to marry free believing women, then let him marry such of your believing maidens as have fallen into your hands as slaves; God well knoweth your faith. Ye are sprung the one from the other. Marry them, then, with the leave of their masters, and give them a fair dower: but let them be chaste and free from fornication, and not entertainers of lovers

George Sale1734 Whoso among you hath not means sufficient that he may marry free women, who are believers, let him marry with such of your maid-servants whom your right hands possess, as are true believers; for God well knoweth your faith. Ye are the one from the other: Therefore marry them with the consent of their masters; and give them their dower according to justice; such as are modest, not guilty of whoredom, nor entertaining lovers. And when they are married, if they be guilty of adultery, they shall suffer half the punishment which is appointed for the free women. This is allowed unto him among you, who feareth to sin by marrying free women; but if ye abstain from marrying slaves, it will be better for you; God is gracious and merciful

তাছাড়া নারীদের মধ্য থেকে অন্যের বিবাহিত সব নারীদেরকে তোমাদের জন্যে হারাম করা হয়েছে। তবে (আল্লাহর পথে জিহাদ করতে গিয়ে বন্দী করার মাধ্যমে) তোমরা যাদের মালিক হয়েছো সেসব দাসীগণ ব্যতীত। এটি তোমাদের ওপর আল্লাহর বিধান। উল্লিখিত নারীগণ ছাড়া অন্য সকল নারীকে নিজেদের অর্থ-সম্পদের (মোহরানার) বিনিময়ে বিয়ে করা তোমাদের জন্য হালাল করা হয়েছে, পবিত্র থাকার উদ্দেশ্যে (বিবাহ বহির্ভূত) অবৈধ যৌনাচারে লিপ্ত হয়ে নয়। সুতরাং তাদের মধ্যে তোমরা যাদের যৌন স্বাদ আস্বাদন করেছো, তাদেরকে তাদের নির্ধারিত মোহরানা দিয়ে দাও। আর মোহরানা নির্ধারণের পর তোমরা যদি কোন বিষয়ে (নির্ধারিত মোহরানার পরিমাণে কম-বেশি করতে) পরস্পর সম্মত হও, তাতে তোমাদের কোন দোষ নেই। নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ মহাজ্ঞানী, প্রজ্ঞাময়।

Welche von ihnen ihr dann genossen habt, denen gebt ihren Lohn (wie es euch) eine Pflicht ist.

Επίσης (απαγορεύεται να παντρευτείτε) τις παντρεμένες γυναίκες, εκτός απ' εκείνες που κατέχουν τα δεξιά σας χέρια (τις αιχμάλωτες στον τόπο μάχης κατά τη διάρκεια του πολέμου). Αυτά σας διατάζει ο Αλλάχ. Επιτρέπεται, όμως, για σας (να παντρευτείτε) οποιαδήποτε άλλη εκτός εκείνων (των προαναφερόμενων γυναικών), εφόσον ο σκοπός σας είναι να (τις) παντρευτείτε δίνοντας από τα πλούτη σας την προίκα, και όχι να διαπράξετε μοιχεία. Και όποιες παντρευτείτε απ' αυτές και έχετε σεξουαλική επαφή μαζί τους (μετά από το γάμου), είναι υποχρεωτικό να τους δώσετε την προίκα τους. Δεν υπάρχει αμαρτία σ' εσάς για όσα συμφωνείτε (είτε να προσαυξάνετε είτε να μειώνετε την προίκα) μετά τον καθορισμό της οφειλόμενης προίκας. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι ‘Αλείμ (Παντογνώστης) και Χακείμ (Πάνσοφος).

तथा उन स्त्रियों से (विवाह करना हराम है), जो दूसरों के निकाह़ में हों, सिवाय तुम्हारी दासियों[21] के। यह अल्लाह ने तुम्हारे लिए अनिवार्य कर दिया[22] है। और इनके सिवा दूसरी स्त्रियाँ तुम्हारे लिए ह़लाल कर दी गई हैं कि तुम अपना धन (महर) खर्च करके उनसे विवाह कर लो (बशर्ते कि तुम्हारा उद्देश्य) सतीत्व की रक्षा हो, अवैध तरीके से काम वासना की तृप्ति न हो। फिर उन औरतों में से जिनसे तुम लाभ उठाओ, उन्हें उनका महर अवश्य चुका दो। तथा यदि महर निर्धारित करने के बाद आपसी सहमति (से कोई कमी-बेशी) कर लो, तो तुमपर कोई गुनाह नहीं है। निःसंदेह अल्लाह सब कुछ जानने वाला, पूर्ण हिकमत वाला है।

E le donne sposate, tranne nel caso appartengano già a voi. È un ordine di Allāh. E vi sono permesse tutte al di fuori di queste, se le ottenete con i vostri beni, legalmente, e non per una via peccaminosa. Per il godimento che ne avrete, corrispondete loro giuste doti, come è dovuto, e non c’è peccato in ciò che voi concorderete insieme, come è dovuto, e Allāh è in verità Sapiente, Saggio.

24. Taip pat (draudžiamos) jau ištekėjusios moterys, išskyrus tos (vergės), kurias jūsų dešinės rankos valdo. Taip jums įsakė Allahas. Visos kitos yra leidžiamos, jei jūs siekiate (jų santuokai) su Mahr (sutuoktinio, santuokos sudarymo metu, nuotakai dovanojamais pinigais) iš savo nuosavybės, trokšdami skaistumo, neužsiimdami neteisėtais lytiniais santykiais. Taigi, su kuriomis iš jų mėgavotės lytiniais santykiais, duokite joms jų Mahr kaip paskirta. Tačiau jei po to, kai Mahr yra paskirtas, jūs abu sutariate (duoti daugiau), nėra jums nuodėmės. Iš tiesų, Allahas yra Visada Visa Žinantis, Visa Išmanantis.

И [запретны вам] замужние из женщин, кроме тех, кем овладели ваши десницы. Это — предписание Аллаха для вас. И дозволены вам [женщины], кроме упомянутых, если вы их пожелаете, расходуя из своего имущества, стремясь к целомудрию, а не к распутству. А за то, чем вы наслаждаетесь с ними [заключив с ними брак], давайте им их установленный брачный дар, как обязательное предписание. И нет на вас греха в том, о чём вы договоритесь между собой помимо установленного. Воистину, Аллах всегда был [и пребудет] знающим, мудрым.

И забрањују вам се удате жене, осим оне које су у вашем власништву. То вам је Аллахов пропис! А остале су вам дозвољене, ако желите да им венчане дарове дате и да се њима ожените, а не да чините блуд! А супругама вашим са којима имате брачне односе дајте венчане дарове као што је прописано. И није вам грех ако се, после одређеног венчаног дара, са њима нагодите. Аллах, заиста, све зна и мудар је.

Maliki bulunduğunuz cariyeler müstesna, evli kadınlarla evlenmeniz de haram kılındı. Bunlar, Allah'ın üzerinize farz kıldığı hükümlerdir. Bunların dışında kalanlar ise, iffetli yaşamak ve zina etmemek şartıyla mallarınızla (mehirlerini verip) istemeniz size helâl kılındı. Onlardan (nikâhlanıp) faydalanmanıza karşılık sabit bir hak olarak kendilerine mehirlerini verin. Mehir belirlendikten sonra, onunla ilgili olarak uzlaştığınız şeyler konusunda size günah yoktur.

The translators word this verse differently

Talal Itani2012 If any of you lack the means to marry free believing women, he may marry one of the believing maids under your control. God is well aware of your faith. You are from one another. Marry them with the permission of their guardians, and give them their recompense fairly-to be protected-neither committing adultery, nor taking secret lovers. When they are married, if they commit adultery, their punishment shall be half that of free women. That is for those among you who fear falling into decadence. But to practice self-restraint is better for you. God is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 And whoso is not able to afford to marry free, believing women, let them marry from the believing maids whom your right hands possess. Allah knoweth best (concerning) your faith. Ye (proceed) one from another; so wed them by permission of their folk, and give unto them their portions in kindness, they being honest, not debauched nor of loose conduct. And if when they are honourably married they commit lewdness they shall incur the half of the punishment (prescribed) for free women (in that case). This is for him among you who feareth to commit sin. But to have patience would be better for you. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful

Edward Henry Palmer1880 But whosoever of you cannot go the length of marrying marriageable women who believe, then take of what your right hands possess, of your maidens who believe;- though God knows best about your faith. Ye come one from the other; then marry them with the permission of their people, and give them their hire in reason, they being chaste and not fornicating, and not receivers of paramours. But when they are married, if they commit fornication, then inflict upon them half the penalty for married women; that is for whomsoever of you fears wrong; but that ye should have patience is better for you, and God is forgiving and merciful

John Medows Rodwell1861 And whoever of you is not rich enough to marry free believing women, then let him marry such of your believing maidens as have fallen into your hands as slaves; God well knoweth your faith. Ye are sprung the one from the other. Marry them, then, with the leave of their masters, and give them a fair dower: but let them be chaste and free from fornication, and not entertainers of lovers

George Sale1734 Whoso among you hath not means sufficient that he may marry free women, who are believers, let him marry with such of your maid-servants whom your right hands possess, as are true believers; for God well knoweth your faith. Ye are the one from the other: Therefore marry them with the consent of their masters; and give them their dower according to justice; such as are modest, not guilty of whoredom, nor entertaining lovers. And when they are married, if they be guilty of adultery, they shall suffer half the punishment which is appointed for the free women. This is allowed unto him among you, who feareth to sin by marrying free women; but if ye abstain from marrying slaves, it will be better for you; God is gracious and merciful

We knew what we ordained for them concerning their wives and what their right hands possess, that there should be no hindrance to thee, and God is forgiving, merciful

John Medows Rodwell published 1861

O Prophet! we allow thee thy wives whom thou hast dowered, and the slaves whom thy right hand possesseth out of the booty which God hath granted thee, and the daughters of thy uncle, and of thy paternal and maternal aunts who fled with thee to Medina, and any believing woman who hath given herself up to the Prophet, if the Prophet desired to wed her - a Privilege for thee above the rest of the Faithful. We well know what we have settled for them, in regard to their wives and to the slaves whom their right hands hold, that there may be no fault on thy part: and God is Indulgent, Merciful

George Sale published 1734

O prophet, We have allowed thee thy wives unto whom thou hast given their dower, and also the slaves which thy right hand possesseth, of the booty which God hath granted thee; and the daughters of thy uncle, and the daughters of thy aunts, both on thy father's side, and on thy mother's side, who have fled with thee from Mecca, and any other believing woman, if she give herself unto the prophet; in case the prophet desireth to take her to wife. This is a peculiar privilege granted unto thee, above the rest of the true believers. We know what we have ordained them concerning their wives, and the slaves whom their right hands possess: Lest it should be deemed a crime in thee to make use of the privilege granted thee; for God is gracious and merciful

Hafs/Kufan verse numbering, 6236 ayahs. The bismillah is delivered as a separate `bismillah` attribute on ayah 1 and is NOT fused into the ayah text. 112 surahs carry one: every surah except al-Fatiha, where the bismillah is ayah 1:1 itself, and at-Tawba, which has none. Sourced from the XML output; the plain-text output of the same release DOES fuse it, which is defect D1.

O Pejgamber! Ne t'i lejuam ty (për martesë) gratë të cilave ua ke dhënë mehrin[3], robëreshat që t'i ka dhënë Allahu si pre e luftës, vajzat e axhës, vajzat e hallës, vajzat e dajës, vajzat e tezes, të cilat mërguan bashkë me ty, si dhe atë grua besimtare që ia dhuron veten Pejgamberit, nëse Pejgamberi dëshiron të martohet me të. Kjo (e fundit) është vetëm për ty, e jo për besimtarët e tjerë. Ne e dimë mirë çfarë u kemi caktuar atyre lidhur me gratë e tyre dhe me ato që janë në pronësinë e tyre, në mënyrë që ty të të mos vijë rëndë. Allahu është Falës i Madh e Mëshirëplotë.

হে নবী! আমি তোমার জন্য তোমার স্ত্রীদেরকে হালাল করেছি যাদেরকে তুমি মোহরানা দিয়েছো এবং বৈধ করেছি ফায় (২৫) হিসেবে আল্লাহ তোমাকে যা দান করেছেন, তাদের মধ্য থেকে যারা তোমার মালিকানাধীন হয়েছে তাদেরকে। আর (বিয়ের জন্য বৈধ করেছি) তোমার চাচার কন্যা, ফুফুর কন্যা, মামার কন্যা, খালার কন্যাকে, যারা তোমার সাথে হিজরত করেছে, আর কোনো মু’মিনা নারী যদি নবীর জন্য নিজেকে হেবা করে, নবী তাকে বিয়ে করতে চাইলে সেও তার জন্য বৈধ। এটা বিশেষভাবে তোমার জন্য, অন্য মু’মিনদের জন্য নয়। আমি মু’মিনদের ওপর তাদের স্ত্রীদের ও তাদের অধিকারভুক্ত দাসীদের ব্যাপারে যে বিধি বিধান নির্ধারণ করেছি, তা আমি নিশ্চয় জানি; যাতে তোমার কোনো অসুবিধা না হয়। আল্লাহ অতি ক্ষমাশীল, পরম দয়ালু।

Ω, Προφήτη! Πράγματι, επιτρέψαμε σε σένα τις γυναίκες σου που τους έδωσες τις προίκες τους, και τις δούλες σου που σου χάρισε ο Αλλάχ (όπως τη Μαρία που την έστειλε ο Αλ-Μουκάουκις ο βασιλιάς της Αιγύπτου ως δώρο προς τον Προφήτη). [Σημ. όποιος ασπάστηκε το Ισλάμ αλλά έχει παραπάνω από τέσσερις γυναίκες, έπρεπε να κρατήσει μόνο τέσσερις και να χωρίσει τις υπόλοιπες, οι οποίες θα μπορούσαν μετά να παντρευτούν με άλλους. Όμως ο Αλλάχ επέτρεψε στον Προφήτη να έχει παραπάνω από τέσσερις συζύγους για πολλούς λόγους. Αν ο Προφήτης χώριζε μία, αυτή δε θα μπορούσε να παντρευτεί με άλλον, επειδή οι γυναίκες του είναι οι μητέρες των πιστών! Επίσης πριν το Ισλάμ, σε όλες τις άλλες θρησκείες και κοινωνίες, δεν υπήρχε όριο συζύγων για τους άνδρες, για πολιτικούς, κοινωνικούς και οικονομικούς λόγους, όπως αναφέρεται στις γραφές των Χριστιανών και των Εβραίων]. Και κάναμε επιτρεπτό να παντρευτείς από τις ξαδέλφες σου -από την πλευρά των θείων σου, ανδρών ή γυναικών, είτε από την πλευρά τον πατέρα σου, είτε από την πλευρά της μητέρας σου-, που έχουν μεταναστεύσει μαζί σου. Και κάναμε επιτρεπτό να παντρευτείς μία πιστή γυναίκα αν η ίδια προσφερθεί στον Προφήτη να την παντρευτεί (χωρίς προίκα), και αν ο Προφήτης επίσης επιθυμεί να την παντρευτεί. Και (το να προσφέρει μία πιστή το γάμο χωρίς προίκα) είναι αποκλειστικά για σένα, και όχι για τους υπόλοιπους πιστούς. Γνωρίζουμε τι έχουμε ορίσει σ' αυτούς (τους πιστούς) σχετικά με τις συζύγους τους (ότι πρέπει να τους δώσουν προίκα, να φέρουν δύο μάρτυρες κατά το συμβόλαιο γάμου), και σχετικά με τις δούλες τους (αν έχουν). (Αυτό ορίσαμε για σένα) για να μην υπάρχει αμαρτία ή δυσκολία σε σένα. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι Γαφούρ (Αυτός που συγχωρεί τα πάντα) και Ραχείμ (Πολυεύσπλαχνος).

John Medows Rodwell1861 O Believers! when ye marry believing women, and then divorce them before ye have consummated the marriage, ye have no term prescribed you, which ye must fulfil towards them: provide for them, and dismiss them with a reputable dismissal

George Sale1734 O true believers, when ye marry women who are believers, and afterwards put them away, before ye have touched them, there is no term prescribed you to fulfil towards them after their divorce: But make them a present, and dismiss them freely, with an honourable dismission

33:50 — the verse above

33:51

تُرْجِى مَن تَشَآءُ مِنْهُنَّ وَتُـْٔوِىٓ إِلَيْكَ مَن تَشَآءُ وَمَنِ ٱبْتَغَيْتَ مِمَّنْ عَزَلْتَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكَ ذَٰلِكَ أَدْنَىٰٓ أَن تَقَرَّ أَعْيُنُهُنَّ وَلَا يَحْزَنَّ وَيَرْضَيْنَ بِمَآ ءَاتَيْتَهُنَّ كُلُّهُنَّ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِى قُلُوبِكُمْ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَلِيمًا

The translators word this verse differently

Talal Itani2012 You may defer any of them you wish, and receive any of them you wish. Should you desire any of those you had deferred, there is no blame on you. This is more proper, so that they will be comforted, and not be grieved, and be content with what you have given each one of them. God knows what is within your hearts. God is Omniscient and Clement.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Thou canst defer whom thou wilt of them and receive unto thee whom thou wilt, and whomsoever thou desirest of those whom thou hast set aside (temporarily), it is no sin for thee (to receive her again); that is better; that they may be comforted and not grieve, and may all be pleased with what thou givest them. Allah knoweth what is in your hearts (O men), and Allah is ever Forgiving, Clement

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Put off whomsoever thou wilt of them and take to thyself whomsoever thou wilt, or whomsoever thou cravest of those whom thou hast deposed, and it shall be no crime against thee. That is nigher to cheering their eyes and that they should not grieve, and should be satisfied with what thou dost bring them all; but God knows best what is in their hearts; and God is knowing, clement

John Medows Rodwell1861 Thou mayst decline for the present whom thou wilt of them, and thou mayest take to thy bed her whom thou wilt, and whomsoever thou shalt long for of those thou shalt have before neglected; and this shall not be a crime in thee. Thus will it be easier to give them the desire of their eyes, and not to put them to grief, and to satisfy them with what thou shalt accord to each of them. God knoweth what is in your hearts, and God is Knowing, Gracious

George Sale1734 Thou mayest postpone the turn of such of thy wives as thou shalt please, in being called to thy bed; and thou mayest take unto thee her whom thou shalt please, and her whom thou shalt desire of those whom thou shalt have before rejected: And it shall be no crime in thee. This will be more easy, that they may be entirely content, and may not be grieved, but may be well pleased with what thou shalt give every of them: God knoweth whatever is in your hearts; and God is knowing and gracious

33:52

لَّا يَحِلُّ لَكَ ٱلنِّسَآءُ مِنۢ بَعْدُ وَلَآ أَن تَبَدَّلَ بِهِنَّ مِنْ أَزْوَٰجٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكَ حُسْنُهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُكَ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ رَّقِيبًا

Talal Itani2012 Beyond that, no other women are permissible for you, nor can you exchange them for other wives, even if you admire their beauty, except those you already have. God is Watchful over all things.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 It is not allowed thee to take (other) women henceforth, nor that thou shouldst change them for other wives even though their beauty pleased thee, save those whom thy right hand possesseth. And Allah is ever Watcher over all things

Edward Henry Palmer1880 It is not lawful to thee to take women after (this), nor to change them for (other) wives, even though their beauty please thee; except what thy right hand possesses, for God is ever watchful over all

John Medows Rodwell1861 It is not permitted thee to take other wives hereafter, nor to change thy present wives for other women, though their beauty charm thee, except slaves whom thy right hand shall possess. And God watcheth all things

George Sale1734 It shall not be lawful for thee to take other women to wife hereafter, nor to exchange any of thy wives for them, although their beauty please thee; except the slaves whom thy right hand shall possess: And God observeth all things

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it2 of the 2 paragraphs signed with this study

The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.

The question asks whether the Qur'an allows marrying cousins. The probe 'cousin' and 'cousins' returns no rows in the five renderings; the text names the daughters of uncles and aunts instead.

The forbidden degrees are read in the study Whom does the Qur'an say a person may not marry?
