Divorce is allowed twice. Then, either honorable retention, or setting free kindly. It is not lawful for you to take back anything you have given them, unless they fear that they cannot maintain God's limits. If you fear that they cannot maintain God's limits, then there is no blame on them if she sacrifices something for her release. These are God's limits, so do not transgress them. Those who transgress God's limits are the unjust.
Is "triple talaq" in one sitting in the Qur'an, and is halala what 2:230 describes?
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.
- 01 2:229 Itani has "Divorce is allowed twice" and "either honorable retention, or setting free kindly". Pickthall has "Divorce must be pronounced twice and then (a woman) must be retained in honour or released in kindness". The verse counts two, and sets a choice after them.
- 02 2:230 Rodwell and Sale have "if the husband divorce her a third time". Pickthall and Palmer carry the word third only inside their own brackets. Itani has "If he divorces her" and prints no number. The verse goes on, in Itani's words, "she shall not be lawful for him again until she has married another husband", and "If the latter divorces her, then there is no blame on them for reuniting, provided they think they can maintain God's limits". Pickthall has "if they consider that they are able to observe the limits of Allah".
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
None of the five renders a verse that speaks of three divorces given at one sitting. The words talaq and halala are printed in none of the five.
What the five print is a count with a choice in it. At 2:229 Itani has "Divorce is allowed twice", and the verse goes on "Then, either honorable retention, or setting free kindly". Pickthall has "Divorce must be pronounced twice and then (a woman) must be retained in honour or released in kindness".
At 2:230 the renderings divide on how the next divorce is named. Rodwell and Sale have "a third time" in their text; Pickthall has "(the third time)" and Palmer has "(a third time)", each in brackets of his own. Itani has "If he divorces her" and prints no number.
So the passage counts divorces and sets a choice after the second.
What 2:230 prints is a sequence and a condition.
The sequence: Itani has "she shall not be lawful for him again until she has married another husband". The verse then speaks of that marriage ending, and Itani has "If the latter divorces her, then there is no blame on them for reuniting". Pickthall marks who is meant with "(the other husband)", in brackets of his own.
The condition: Itani has "provided they think they can maintain God's limits", and Pickthall has "if they consider that they are able to observe the limits of Allah".
The verse says nothing about the purpose of the second marriage. Whether words repeated at one time count as one divorce or three, whether any particular arrangement is what 2:230 describes, and every ruling on either, belong to jurisprudence, a layer this platform does not hold or show. This study does not answer them and does not weigh any view of them.
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 2:229, widening across 2 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.

Divorce must be pronounced twice and then (a woman) must be retained in honour or released in kindness. And it is not lawful for you that ye take from women aught of that which ye have given them; except (in the case) when both fear that they may not be able to keep within the limits (imposed by) Allah. And if ye fear that they may not be able to keep the limits of Allah, in that case it is no sin for either of them if the woman ransom herself. These are the limits (imposed by) Allah. Transgress them not. For whoso transgresseth Allah's limits: such are wrong-doers
Divorce (may happen) twice; then keep them in reason, or let them go with kindness. It is not lawful for you to take from them anything of what you have given them, unless both fear that they cannot keep within God's bounds. So if ye fear that ye cannot keep within God's bounds there is no crime in you both about what she ransoms herself with. These are God's bounds, do not transgress them; and whoso transgresses God's bounds, they it is who are unjust
Ye may divorce your wives twice: Keep them honourably, or put them away with kindness. But it is not allowed you to appropriate to yourselves aught of what ye have given to them, unless both fear that they cannot keep within the bounds set up by God. And if ye fear that they cannot observe the ordinances of God, no blame shall attach to either of you for what the wife shall herself give for her redemption. These are the bounds of God: therefore overstep them not; for whoever oversteppeth the bounds of God, they are evil doers
Ye may divorce your wives twice; and then either retain them with humanity, or dismiss them with kindness. But it is not lawful for you to take away any thing of what ye have given them, unless both fear that they cannot observe the ordinances of God. And if ye fear that they cannot observe the ordinances of God, it shall be no crime in either of them of account of that for which the wife shall redeem her self. These are the ordinances of God; therefore transgress them not; for whoever transgresseth the ordinances of God, they are unjust doers

Ndarja (pas së cilës burri mund ta rikthejë gruan) mund të bëhet dy herë. Pastaj, ose ta mbajë gruan në mënyrë të hijshme, ose ta lëshojë me mirësi. Burrave nuk u lejohet të marrin asgjë nga ajo që u kanë dhënë grave të veta (për martesë), përveç nëse ata të dy kanë frikë se nuk do të mund t'u përmbahen kufijve të Allahut. Pra, po qe se frikoheni se ata të dy nuk do të mund t'i përfillin kufijtë e Allahut, atëherë nuk është gjynah për asnjërin nëse gruaja i jep diçka burrit (për t'u ndarë nga ai). Këta janë kufijtë e Allahut, andaj mos i shkelni. Ata që i shkelin kufijtë e Allahut, mu ata janë zullumqarët.

Die (widerrufliche) Scheidung kann zweimal (erfolgen). Dann (sollen die Frauen) in rechtlicher Weise behalten oder in ordentlicher Weise freigegeben (werden). Und es ist euch nicht erlaubt, etwas von dem, was ihr ihnen gegeben habt, (wieder) zu nehmen, außer wenn die beiden fürchten, dass sie die Grenzen Allahs nicht einhalten werden. Wenn ihr nun befürchtet, dass die beiden die Grenzen Allahs nicht einhalten werden, dann ist für die beiden keine Sünde in dem, womit (an Geld) sie sich löst. Dies sind Allahs Grenzen, so übertretet sie nicht! Und wer Allahs Grenzen übertritt, diejenigen sind die Ungerechten.
Το διαζύγιο (στο οποίο ο σύζυγος μπορεί να πάρει ξανά τη σύζυγό του στον έγγαμο βίο κατά την περίοδο αναμονής -‘Είντα-) μπορεί να δοθεί (μόνο) δύο φορές: έπειτα είτε διατηρεί κανείς (τη σύζυγο) με καλό τρόπο (καλή συντροφικότητα και καλό έγγαμο βίο), είτε (την) αφήνει με καλοσύνη (μέσω της τρίτης φοράς διαζυγίου, μετά την οποία δεν μπορεί να την πάρει πίσω εκτός με άλλους κανόνες). Και δεν επιτρέπεται σ’ εσάς (τους άνδρες μετά το διαζύγιο) να πάρετε πίσω τίποτα απ’ όση (προίκα) τους είχατε δώσει, εκτός και αν (η σύζυγος μισεί τον σύζυγό της λόγω κάποιων σωματικών ιδιαιτεροτήτων του, ή μεγάλης σεξουαλικής ανεπάρκειάς του, ή κακού χαρακτήρα του κλπ. και ζητάει διαζύγιο) και οι δύο πλευρές (ο άνδρας και η σύζυγός του) φοβούνται ότι δε θα μπορέσουν (εξαιτίας αυτού του μίσους) να τηρήσουν τα όρια που τέθηκαν από τον Αλλάχ (τα συζυγικά δικαιώματα και καθήκοντα). Αν λοιπόν (εσείς, οι κριτές που τεθήκατε από τις δύο πλευρές) φοβάστε ότι δε θα μπορέσουν να τηρήσουν τα όρια που τέθηκαν από τον Αλλάχ, τότε δε θα υπάρχει αμαρτία σε κανέναν απ’ τους δύο, αν αυτή επιστρέψει την προίκα (ή μέρος της στον σύζυγό της) για να πάρει διαζύγιο (Χουλ‘). Αυτά είναι τα όρια που τέθηκαν από τον Αλλάχ, γι’ αυτό μην τα παραβιάζετε. Και όποιοι παραβιάζουν τα όρια που τέθηκαν από τον Αλλάχ, αυτοί είναι οι άδικοι.
यह तलाक़ दो बार है। फिर या तो अच्छे तरीक़े से रख लेना है, या नेकी के साथ छोड़ देना है। और तुम्हारे लिए ह़लाल (वैध) नहीं कि उसमें से जो तुमने उन्हें दिया है, कुछ भी लो, सिवाय इसके कि उन दोनों को इस बात का डर हो कि वे अल्लाह की सीमाओं को क़ायम न रख सकेंगे। फिर यदि तुम्हें भय[148] हो कि वे दोनों (पति-पत्नी) अल्लाह की सीमाओं को क़ायम न रख सकेंगे, तो उन दोनों पर उसमें कोई दोष (पाप) नहीं जो पत्नी अपनी जान छुड़ाने[149] के बदले में दे दे। ये अल्लाह की सीमाएँ हैं, अतः इनसे आगे मत बढ़ो और जो अल्लाह की सीमाओं से आगे बढ़ेगा, तो यही लोग अत्याचारी हैं।
È permesso divorziare due volte: trattenetele con dignità o rifiutatele con benevolenza. E non vi è permesso di riprendere una parte che avete dato loro, tranne quando si teme che nessuno dei due rispetti i precetti di Allāh; se temete che non possano osservare i precetti di Allāh, non ci sarà peccato per loro se lei si riscatta: quelli sono i termini di Allāh, attenti a non violarli! E quelli che trasgrediscono i termini di Allāh, quelli sono gli ingiusti!
229. Skyrybos yra (atšaukiamos) dukart. Po to – arba tu išlaikai ją priimtinomis sąlygomis arba geranoriškai ją paleidi. Ir neleistina jums (vyrai) atsiimti (iš savo žmonų) jokio savo Mahr (sutuoktinio, santuokos sudarymo metu, nuotakai dovanotų pinigų), kurį jūs davėte joms, išskyrus jei abi pusės bijo, kad nesugebės laikytis Allaho nustatytų ribų (pavyzdžiui, elgtis vienas su kitu sąžiningai). Taigi, jei jūs baiminatės, kad nesugebėsite laikytis Allaho nustatytų ribų, tada nė vienam iš jų nėra nuodėmės, jei ji grąžina (Mahr ar dalį jo) už savo Al-Khul (skyrybas) [32]. Tokios yra Allaho nustatytos ribos, taigi neperženkite jų. Ir kas peržengia Allaho nustatytas ribas, tada tokie yra Zalimūn (nusidėjėliai).

Развод [допустим] дважды. Затем — либо удержание согласно одобряемому, либо отпускание с добродетельным отношением. Не дозволено для вас забирать что-либо из того, что вы даровали им, кроме как если оба боятся, что не смогут соблюсти границ Аллаха. Если же вы боитесь, что они не смогут блюсти границ Аллаха, то нет греха на них обоих в том, что она откупится. Это — границы Аллаха, так не преступайте же их. А кто преступает границы Аллаха — именно они и есть несправедливые.
Развод може бити два пута, након чега се она, или лепо и праведно задржава, или јој се уз доброчинство последњи развод даје! А вама није допуштено да узимате било шта од онога што сте им даровали, осим ако се њих двоје плаше да Аллахове прописе неће да извршавају. А ако се бојите да њих двоје Аллахове прописе неће да извршавају, онда им није грех да се она откупи. То су Аллахове границе, па их не прекорачујте! А они који Аллахове границе прекорачују, то су прави неправедници!
Talaka ni mara mbili. Kisha ni kukaa kwa wema au kuachana kwa uzuri.

Basi mkihofia kuwa hawataweza kushikamana na mipaka ya Mwenyezi Mungu, hapo hakuna ubaya juu yao katika kile ambacho mke atajikomboa kwacho. Hii ndiyo mipaka ya Mwenyezi Mungu. Basi msiikiuke.

Skilsmässan [får återkallas] två gånger. Därefter ska [mannen] fortsätta äktenskapet på ett hederligt sätt, eller avsluta det med gott uppförande [genom att uttala en tredje skilsmässa]. Och det är inte tillåtet för er [män] att ta tillbaka något av det ni gett dem, förutom om båda parterna är rädda att de inte kan upprätthålla Guds gränser. Om ni är rädda att de inte kan upprätthålla Guds gränser är det harmlöst om hon avslutar äktenskapet [genom att ge tillbaka en del av sin brudgåva]. Detta är Guds gränser, så överskrid dem inte. Och de som överskrider Guds gränser är verkligen orättfärdiga.
(Dönüş yapılabilecek) boşama iki defadır. Sonrası ya iyilikle geçinmek, ya da güzellikle bırakmaktır. (Evlilikte) tarafların Allah’ın belirlediği ölçüleri koruyamama endişeleri dışında kadınlara verdiklerinizden (boşanma esnasında) bir şeyi geri almanız sizin için helâl olmaz. Eğer onlar Allah’ın belirlediği ölçüleri gözetmeyecekler diye endişe ederseniz, o zaman kadının (boşanmak için) bedel vermesinde ikisine de günah yoktur. Bunlar Allah’ın koyduğu sınırlardır. Sakın bunları aşmayın. Allah’ın koyduğu sınırları kim aşarsa, onlar zalimlerin ta kendileridir.

Divorced women shall wait by themselves for three periods. And it is not lawful for them to conceal what God has created in their wombs, if they believe in God and the Last Day. Meanwhile, their husbands have the better right to take them back, if they desire reconciliation. And women have rights similar to their obligations, according to what is fair. But men have a degree over them. God is Mighty and Wise.
Women who are divorced shall wait, keeping themselves apart, three (monthly) courses. And it is not lawful for them that they should conceal that which Allah hath created in their wombs if they are believers in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands would do better to take them back in that case if they desire a reconciliation. And they (women) have rights similar to those (of men) over them in kindness, and men are a degree above them. Allah is Mighty, Wise
Divorced women must wait for themselves three courses; and it is not lawful to them that they hide what God has created in their wombs, if they believe in God and in the last day. Their husbands will do better to take them back in that (case) if they wish for reconciliation; for, the same is due to them as from them; but the men should have precedence over them. God is mighty and wise
The divorced shall wait the result, until they have had their courses thrice, nor ought they to conceal what God hath created in their wombs, if they believe in God and the last day; and it will be more just in their husbands to bring them back when in this state, if they desire what is right. And it is for the women to act as they (the husbands) act by them, in all fairness; but the men are a step above them. God is Mighty, Wise
The women who are divorced shall wait concerning themselves until they have their courses thrice, and it shall not be lawful for them to conceal that which God hath created in their wombs, if they believe in God and the last day; and their husbands will act more justly to bring them back at this time, if they desire a reconciliation. The women ought also to behave towards their husbands in like manner as their husbands should behave towards them, according to what is just: But the men ought to have a superiority over them. God is mighty and wise

If he divorces her, she shall not be lawful for him again until she has married another husband. If the latter divorces her, then there is no blame on them for reuniting, provided they think they can maintain God's limits. These are God's limits; He makes them clear to people who know.
And if he hath divorced her (the third time), then she is not lawful unto him thereafter until she hath wedded another husband. Then if he (the other husband) divorce her it is no sin for both of them that they come together again if they consider that they are able to observe the limits of Allah. These are the limits of Allah. He manifesteth them for people who have knowledge
But if he divorce her (a third time) she shall not be lawful to him after that, until she marry another husband; but, if he divorce her too, it is no crime in them both to come together again, if they think that they can keep within God's bounds. These are God's bounds which He explains to a people who know
But if the husband divorce her a third time, it is not lawful for him to take her again, until she shall have married another husband; and if he also divorce her, then shall no blame attach to them if they return to each other, thinking that they can keep within the bounds fixed by God.

But if the husband divorce her a third time, she shall not be lawful for him again, until she marry another husband.

When you divorce women, and they have reached their term, either retain them amicably, or release them amicably. But do not retain them to hurt them and commit aggression. Whoever does that has wronged himself. And do not take God's revelations for a joke. And remember God's favor to you, and that He revealed to you the Scripture and Wisdom to teach you. And fear God, and know that God is aware of everything.
When ye have divorced women, and they have reached their term, then retain them in kindness or release them in kindness. Retain them not to their hurt so that ye transgress (the limits). He who doeth that hath wronged his soul. Make not the revelations of Allah a laughing-stock (by your behaviour), but remember Allah's grace upon you and that which He hath revealed unto you of the Scripture and of wisdom, whereby He doth exhort you. Observe your duty to Allah and know that Allah is Aware of all things
When ye divorce women, and they have reached the prescribed time, then keep them kindly, or let them go in reason, but do not keep them by force to transgress; for whoso does that, he is unjust to his own soul: and do not take God's signs in jest; and remember God's favours to you, and what He has sent down to you of the Book and wisdom, to admonish you thereby; and fear God, and know that God doth all things know
But when ye divorce women, and the time for sending them away is come, either retain them with generosity, or put them away with generosity: but retain them not by constraint so as to be unjust towards them. He who doth so, doth in fact injure himself. And make not the signs of God a jest; but remember God's favour toward you, and the Book and the Wisdom which He hath sent down to you for your warning, and fear God, and know that God's knowledge embraceth everything
But when ye divorce women, and they have fulfilled their prescribed time, either retain them with humanity, or dismiss them with kindness; and retain them not by violence, so that ye transgress; for he who doth this, surely injureth his own soul. And make not the signs of God a jest: But remember God's favour towards you, and that he hath sent down unto you the book of the Koran, and wisdom, admonishing you thereby; and fear God, and know that God is omniscient

Nëse ai e lëshon gruan (për të tretën herë), atëherë ajo nuk i lejohet më atij derisa të jetë martuar me ndonjë burrë tjetër dhe ai ta ketë ndarë; atëherë ata nuk kanë gjynah nëse martohen sërish[20], po qe se mendojnë se do t'u përmbahen kufijve të Allahut.

অতএব স্বামী যদি তার স্ত্রীকে (তৃতীয় বার) তালাক দেয় তাহলে ঐ স্ত্রী স্বামীর জন্য ততক্ষণ হালাল হবে না; যতক্ষণ পর্যন্ত ভিন্ন একজন স্বামী সে গ্রহণ না করে (এবং তারা সহবাস না করে )। অতঃপর সে (দ্বিতীয় স্বামী) যদি তালাক (১) দেয়, আর তারা উভয়ে (স্ত্রী ও প্রথম স্বামী) মনে করে যে, তারা আল্লাহর সীমারেখা রক্ষা করতে পারবে, তবে তাদের পুনঃবিয়েতে কারো কোনো অপরাধ হবে না। আর এটা আল্লাহর সীমারেখা, তিনি তা বিবেকবান সম্প্রদায়ের জন্য স্পষ্ট করে বর্ণনা করেন ।

Wenn er sich dann (ein drittes, unwiderrufliches Mal) von ihr scheidet, so ist sie ihm nicht mehr (als Gattin) erlaubt, ehe sie nicht einen anderen Mann geheiratet hat. Wenn dieser sich dann von ihr scheidet, so ist es keine Sünde für die beiden, zueinander zurückzukehren, wenn sie (dabei) meinen, Allahs Grenzen einhalten zu können. Und dies sind Allahs Grenzen, die Er Leuten klar macht, die Bescheid wissen.
Και αν της έχει δώσει διαζύγιο (για τρίτη φορά), τότε δεν επιτρέπεται σ’ αυτόν να την παντρευτεί ξανά μέχρι (αυτή) να παντρευτεί άλλο σύζυγο. Και αν (ο τελευταίος σύζυγος) της δώσει διαζύγιο (ή πεθάνει), δεν υπάρχει αμαρτία πάνω τους (στη γυναίκα και στον πρώην σύζυγο) στο να επιστρέψουν ο ένας στον άλλον (με καινούργιο συμβόλαιο γάμου και καινούργια προίκα), αν πιστεύουν ότι μπορούν να τηρήσουν τα όρια που τέθηκαν από τον Αλλάχ. Αυτά είναι τα όρια που τέθηκαν από τον Αλλάχ, τα οποία διασαφηνίζει στους ανθρώπους που γνωρίζουν.
फिर यदि वह उसे (तीसरी) तलाक़ दे दे, तो उसके बाद वह उसके लिए ह़लाल (वैध) नहीं होगी, यहाँ तक कि उसके अलावा किसी अन्य पति से विवाह करे। फिर यदि वह उसे तलाक़ दे दे, तो (पहले) दोनों पर कोई पाप नहीं कि दोनों आपस में रुजू' (दोबारा मिलाप) कर लें, यदि वे दोनों समझें कि अल्लाह की सीमाओं को क़ायम रखेंगे।[150] और ये अल्लाह की सीमाएँ हैं, वह उन्हें उन लोगों के लिए खोलकर बयान करता है, जो ज्ञान रखते हैं।
Se divorzia da lei ancora, non potrà riprenderla fin quando lei non avrà sposato un altro uomo. Ma se anche questo divorzia, non saranno puniti se decidono di tornare insieme, se sono convinti di rispettare i precetti di Allāh. E quelli sono i precetti di Allāh, che Lui chiarisce alla gente sapiente.
230. Ir jei jis išsiskyrė su ja (trečiąjį kartą), tada ji yra neleistina jam iki tol, kol ji susituokia su kitu sutuoktiniu. Tada, jei kitas sutuoktinis išsiskiria su ja, nėra jiems abiem nuodėmės vėl susijungti, jei jie jaučia, kad gali laikytis Allaho nustatytų ribų. Tokios yra Allaho nustatytos ribos, kurias Jis padarė paprastas žmonėms, turintiems žinių.

А если он развёлся с ней [в третий раз], то она уже не дозволена ему после этого, пока не выйдет замуж за другого мужа. Если же тот разведётся с ней, то нет греха на них обоих в том, чтобы они сошлись вновь, если полагают, что смогут соблюсти границы Аллаха. Это — границы Аллаха, Он разъясняет их людям, которые знают.
А ако је опет разведе, она му није након тога допуштена све док се не уда за другог мужа. Па ако је и он разведе, онда њима двоје није грех да се једно другом врате, ако мисле да ће Аллахове прописе извршавати. То су Аллахове границе које Он објашњава људима који знају.
Na akimtaliki (talaka ya tatu), basi yeye si halali kwake baada ya hayo mpaka aolewe na mume asiyekuwa yeye. Na (huyo mwingine) akimtaliki, basi hakuna ubaya kwao (mke na mume wa kwanza) kurejeana wakiona kuwa watashikamana na mipaka ya Mwenyezi Mungu. Na hii ni mipaka ya Mwenyezi Mungu anayoibainisha kwa watu wanaojua.
Om han därefter skiljer sig från henne [en tredje gång] är det inte tillåtet för honom att återvända till henne förrän hon ingått äktenskap med en annan man. Om [den andra mannen] skiljer sig från henne är det harmlöst om [kvinnan och den första mannen] återgår till varandra, såvida de tror att de kan upprätthålla Guds gränser. Detta är Guds gränser som han klargör för människor som vet.
Eğer erkek karısını (üçüncü defa) boşarsa; kadın, onun dışında bir başka kocayla nikâhlanmadıkça ona helâl olmaz. (Bu koca da) onu boşadığı takdirde, onlar (kadın ile ilk kocası) Allah’ın koyduğu ölçüleri gözetebileceklerine inanıyorlarsa tekrar birbirlerine dönüp evlenmelerinde bir günah yoktur. İşte bunlar Allah’ın, anlayan bir toplum için açıkladığı ölçüleridir.
پھر اگر اس کو (تیسری بار) طلاق دے دے تو اب اس کے لئے حلال نہیں جب تک وه عورت اس کے سوا دوسرے سے نکاح نہ کرے، پھر اگر وه بھی طلاق دے دے تو ان دونوں کو میل جول کرلینے میں کوئی گناه نہیں[1] بشرطیکہ یہ جان لیں کہ اللہ کی حدوں کو قائم رکھ سکیں گے، یہ اللہ تعالیٰ کی حدود ہیں جنہیں وه جاننے والوں کے لئے بیان فرما رہا ہے۔

Divorced women shall wait by themselves for three periods. And it is not lawful for them to conceal what God has created in their wombs, if they believe in God and the Last Day.

But men have a degree over them. God is Mighty and Wise.
Women who are divorced shall wait, keeping themselves apart, three (monthly) courses.

Divorce is allowed twice. Then, either honorable retention, or setting free kindly. It is not lawful for you to take back anything you have given them, unless they fear that they cannot maintain God's limits. If you fear that they cannot maintain God's limits, then there is no blame on them if she sacrifices something for her release. These are God's limits, so do not transgress them. Those who transgress God's limits are the unjust.
Divorce must be pronounced twice and then (a woman) must be retained in honour or released in kindness. And it is not lawful for you that ye take from women aught of that which ye have given them; except (in the case) when both fear that they may not be able to keep within the limits (imposed by) Allah. And if ye fear that they may not be able to keep the limits of Allah, in that case it is no sin for either of them if the woman ransom herself. These are the limits (imposed by) Allah. Transgress them not. For whoso transgresseth Allah's limits: such are wrong-doers
Divorce (may happen) twice; then keep them in reason, or let them go with kindness. It is not lawful for you to take from them anything of what you have given them, unless both fear that they cannot keep within God's bounds. So if ye fear that ye cannot keep within God's bounds there is no crime in you both about what she ransoms herself with. These are God's bounds, do not transgress them; and whoso transgresses God's bounds, they it is who are unjust
Ye may divorce your wives twice: Keep them honourably, or put them away with kindness. But it is not allowed you to appropriate to yourselves aught of what ye have given to them, unless both fear that they cannot keep within the bounds set up by God. And if ye fear that they cannot observe the ordinances of God, no blame shall attach to either of you for what the wife shall herself give for her redemption. These are the bounds of God: therefore overstep them not; for whoever oversteppeth the bounds of God, they are evil doers
Ye may divorce your wives twice; and then either retain them with humanity, or dismiss them with kindness. But it is not lawful for you to take away any thing of what ye have given them, unless both fear that they cannot observe the ordinances of God. And if ye fear that they cannot observe the ordinances of God, it shall be no crime in either of them of account of that for which the wife shall redeem her self. These are the ordinances of God; therefore transgress them not; for whoever transgresseth the ordinances of God, they are unjust doers
2:230 — the verse above
وَإِذَا طَلَّقْتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فَبَلَغْنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَأَمْسِكُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ سَرِّحُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَلَا تُمْسِكُوهُنَّ ضِرَارًا لِّتَعْتَدُوا۟ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ فَقَدْ ظَلَمَ نَفْسَهُۥ وَلَا تَتَّخِذُوٓا۟ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ هُزُوًا وَٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَمَآ أَنزَلَ عَلَيْكُم مِّنَ ٱلْكِتَٰبِ وَٱلْحِكْمَةِ يَعِظُكُم بِهِۦ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَلِيمٌ

When you divorce women, and they have reached their term, either retain them amicably, or release them amicably. But do not retain them to hurt them and commit aggression. Whoever does that has wronged himself. And do not take God's revelations for a joke. And remember God's favor to you, and that He revealed to you the Scripture and Wisdom to teach you. And fear God, and know that God is aware of everything.
When ye have divorced women, and they have reached their term, then retain them in kindness or release them in kindness. Retain them not to their hurt so that ye transgress (the limits). He who doeth that hath wronged his soul. Make not the revelations of Allah a laughing-stock (by your behaviour), but remember Allah's grace upon you and that which He hath revealed unto you of the Scripture and of wisdom, whereby He doth exhort you. Observe your duty to Allah and know that Allah is Aware of all things
When ye divorce women, and they have reached the prescribed time, then keep them kindly, or let them go in reason, but do not keep them by force to transgress; for whoso does that, he is unjust to his own soul: and do not take God's signs in jest; and remember God's favours to you, and what He has sent down to you of the Book and wisdom, to admonish you thereby; and fear God, and know that God doth all things know
But when ye divorce women, and the time for sending them away is come, either retain them with generosity, or put them away with generosity: but retain them not by constraint so as to be unjust towards them. He who doth so, doth in fact injure himself. And make not the signs of God a jest; but remember God's favour toward you, and the Book and the Wisdom which He hath sent down to you for your warning, and fear God, and know that God's knowledge embraceth everything
But when ye divorce women, and they have fulfilled their prescribed time, either retain them with humanity, or dismiss them with kindness; and retain them not by violence, so that ye transgress; for he who doth this, surely injureth his own soul. And make not the signs of God a jest: But remember God's favour towards you, and that he hath sent down unto you the book of the Koran, and wisdom, admonishing you thereby; and fear God, and know that God is omniscient
وَإِذَا طَلَّقْتُمُ ٱلنِّسَآءَ فَبَلَغْنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَلَا تَعْضُلُوهُنَّ أَن يَنكِحْنَ أَزْوَٰجَهُنَّ إِذَا تَرَٰضَوْا۟ بَيْنَهُم بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ ذَٰلِكَ يُوعَظُ بِهِۦ مَن كَانَ مِنكُمْ يُؤْمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ ذَٰلِكُمْ أَزْكَىٰ لَكُمْ وَأَطْهَرُ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ

When you divorce women, and they have reached their term, do not prevent them from marrying their husbands, provided they agree on fair terms. Thereby is advised whoever among you believes in God and the Last Day. That is better and more decent for you. God knows, and you do not know.
And when ye have divorced women and they reach their term, place not difficulties in the way of their marrying their husbands if it is agreed between them in kindness. This is an admonition for him among you who believeth in Allah and the Last Day. That is more virtuous for you, and cleaner. Allah knoweth; ye know not
When ye divorce women, and they have reached their prescribed term, do not prevent them from marrying their (fresh) husbands, when they have agreed with each other reasonably. That is what he is admonished with who amongst you believes in God and in the last day. That is more pure for you and cleaner. But God knows, and ye know not
And when ye divorce your wives, and they have waited the prescribed time, hinder them not from marrying their husbands when they have agreed among themselves in an honourable way. This warning is for him among you who believeth in God and in the last day. This is most pure for you, and most decent. God knoweth, but ye know not
But when ye have divorced your wives, and they have fulfilled their prescribed time, hinder them not from marrying their husbands, when they have agreed among themselves according to what is honourable. This is given in admonition unto him among you who believeth in God, and the last day. This is most righteous for you, and most pure. God knoweth, but ye know not
What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it1 of the 1 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 word talaq is printed in none of the five; the probe 'talaq' returns 0 rows. The word halala is printed in none of the five; the probe 'halala' returns 0 rows. The probe 'one sitting|at one time|at once' returns 19 rows at 13 verses; none of them is in this passage, and none speaks of divorce. The anchors are the two verses that count divorces (2:229 and 2:230); 2:230 is also the verse the second question names. This study does not say how a divorce is pronounced, how many are counted when words are repeated, or how courts or schools of law have ruled. It does not describe any practice, and does not say whether any arrangement meets the terms of 2:230. Those questions belong to jurisprudence, a layer this platform does not hold or show.
