Do not covet what God has given to some of you in preference to others. For men is a share of what they have earned, and for women is a share of what they have earned. And ask God of his bounty. God has knowledge of everything.
What does the Qur'an say about a woman's right to own and to earn?
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 4:32 And covet not the thing in which God hath made some of you excel others. UNTO MEN A FORTUNE FROM THAT WHICH THEY HAVE EARNED, AND UNTO WOMEN A FORTUNE FROM THAT WHICH THEY HAVE EARNED. And ask God of His bounty. In because it states earning symmetrically in one clause, and because it is the clearest statement in the Qur'an that a woman's earnings are her own. ALSO CARRIED by the study What does the Qur'an say about envy?, with a different reason there.
- 02 4:4 AND GIVE UNTO THE WOMEN FREE GIFT OF THEIR MARRIAGE PORTIONS; BUT IF THEY OF THEIR OWN ACCORD REMIT UNTO YOU A PART THEREOF, then ye are welcome to absorb it. In because the payment is made to her and only she may remit it - which is a statement about title. ALSO CARRIED by What does the Qur'an say about the marriage gift (mahr) - and who owns it? and the study What does the Qur'an say about a woman's consent to marriage?, with different reasons there.
- 03 4:20–21 And if ye wish to exchange one wife for another and YE HAVE GIVEN UNTO ONE OF THEM A SUM OF MONEY, HOWEVER GREAT, TAKE NOTHING OF IT. Would ye take it by the way of calumny and open wrong? How can ye take it when one of you hath gone in unto the other? In as ONE PASSAGE because it forbids recovering the payment at divorce however large it was, and 4:21 gives the reason.
- 04 4:7 Unto the men a share of that which parents and near kindred leave, AND UNTO THE WOMEN A SHARE of that which parents and near kindred leave, whether it be little or much - a legal share. In because it establishes that women hold property by inheritance as of right. ALSO CARRIED by the study What are the Qur'an's inheritance shares for women?, with a different reason there.
- 05 4:19 IT IS NOT LAWFUL FOR YOU FORCIBLY TO INHERIT THE WOMEN of your deceased kinsmen, NOR TO PRESS THEM THAT YE MAY TAKE AWAY A PART OF THAT WHICH YE HAVE GIVEN THEM. In because it forbids both treating a woman as property and pressuring her out of hers. ALSO CARRIED by the studies What does the Qur'an say about a woman's consent to marriage? and What are the Qur'an's inheritance shares for women?, with different reasons there.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
4:32 is the verse, and its symmetry is the point: UNTO MEN A FORTUNE FROM THAT WHICH THEY HAVE EARNED, AND UNTO WOMEN A FORTUNE FROM THAT WHICH THEY HAVE EARNED.
The same clause, twice, with the noun changed. Whatever each earns is theirs.
The rest of the material is about protecting property she already holds, and it is unusually specific about the ways it could be taken.
4:4 gives her the marriage payment directly - a free gift of their marriage portions - and provides that only SHE may remit any of it, OF HER OWN ACCORD.
4:20 closes the obvious loophole. A man divorcing to remarry may not take back what he gave, HOWEVER GREAT - and the verse calls the attempt calumny and open wrong.
4:19 closes two more: she may not be inherited as part of an estate, and she may not be PRESSED so that part of what she was given is recovered.
4:7 establishes inheritance in her own name, whether the estate is little or much.
Taken together the text gives a woman title by earning, by gift, and by inheritance, and then forbids four distinct methods of getting it back off her.
What the Qur'an does not do is say anything about the kinds of work a woman may do, or about her working outside the home. Whether women may work or hold office asks what SCHOLARS say, and it is not answered here because this platform holds no cleared fiqh.
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 study does not answer, and which source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.
What this rests on
Opens with 4:32, widening across 5 passages in all.
Easy-read
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.

Mos lakmoni në ato gjëra me të cilat Allahu ka dalluar disa nga ju mbi të tjerët, sepse burrave u takon pjesa që kanë fituar, po edhe grave u takon ajo që kanë fituar. Luteni Allahun për mirësitë e Tij! Me të vërtetë, Allahu është i Gjithëdijshëm për çdo gjë.

Und wünscht euch nicht das, womit Allah die einen von euch gegenüber den anderen bevorzugt hat. Den Männern kommt ein Anteil von dem zu, was sie erworben haben, und den Frauen kommt ein Anteil von dem zu, was sie erworben haben. Und bittet Allah (um etwas) von Seiner Huld. Wahrlich, Allah ist wissend über alles.
Και μην επιθυμείτε αυτά τα οποία ο Αλλάχ έχει παραχωρήσει σε μερικούς απ' εσάς έναντι άλλων. Για τους άνδρες υπάρχει αμοιβή ή τιμωρία για ό,τι έκαναν, και (ομοίως) για τις γυναίκες υπάρχει αμοιβή ή τιμωρία για ό,τι έκαναν. Και ζητήστε από τον Αλλάχ τη χάρη και τη γενναιοδωρία Του. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι για τα πάντα Παντογνώστης.
तथा अल्लाह ने जिस चीज़ के द्वारा तुममें से कुछ को दूसरों पर प्रतिष्ठा प्रदान की है, उसकी कामना न करो। पुरुषों के लिए उसमें से हिस्सा है, जो उन्होंने कमाया[28] और स्त्रियों के लिए उसमें से हिस्सा है, जो उन्होंने कमाया है। तथा अल्लाह से उसका अनुग्रह माँगते रहो। निःसंदेह, अल्लाह सब कुछ जानने वाला है।
E non desiderate ciò con cui Allāh ha favorito l’uno più dell’altro; agli uomini va parte di ciò che hanno guadagnato e alle donne parte di ciò che hanno guadagnato, e invocate Allāh per la sua grazia, in verità Allāh è Onnisciente.
32. Ir netrokškite to, kame Allahas padarė kai kuriuos iš jūsų pranašesnius už kitus. Vyrams yra atlygis už tai, ką jie įgijo, (ir taip pat) moterims yra atlygis už tai, ką jos įgijo. Ir prašykite Allaho Jo Dosnumo. Iš tiesų, Allahas yra Visada Visa Žinantis apie viską.

Не желайте того, чем Аллах превознёс одних из вас над другими. Мужчинам — доля из того, что они приобрели, а женщинам — доля из того, что они приобрели. И просите у Аллаха из Его щедрости. Воистину, Аллах всегда был [и пребудет] знающим обо всём сущем.
И не пожелите оно чиме је Аллах неке од вас одликовао над другима: мушкарцима припада удео за оно што зараде, а женама удео за оно што оне зараде. И молите Аллаха за Његово обиље! Аллах, заиста, све добро зна.
Wala msitamani alichowafadhilisha kwacho Mwenyezi Mungu baadhi yenu kuliko wengine. Wanaume wana fungu katika walivyovichuma, na wanawake wana fungu katika walivyovichuma. Na mwombeni Mwenyezi Mungu katika fadhila zake. Hakika, Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye kujua kila kitu.
Eftertrakta inte det som Gud har givit vissa av er mer av än andra. Män ska få sin del av det de förtjänat, och kvinnor ska få sin del av det de förtjänat. Be Gud om att få del av hans godhet! Gud har full vetskap om allt.
(Allah’ın sizi, birbirinizden üstün kıldığı (başkalarında olup da sizde olmayanı) hasretle arzu edip durmayın. Erkekler için kazandıklarının bir sevabı olduğu gibi, kadınlar için de kazandıklarının bir sevabı vardır. Allah’ın kendi fazlından (bağışından) isteyin. Şüphesiz Allah, her şeyi hakkıyla bilendir.
اوراس چیز کی آرزو نہ کرو جس کے باعﺚ اللہ تعالیٰ نے تم میں سے بعض کو بعض پر بزرگی دی ہے، مردوں کا اس میں سے حصہ ہے جو انہوں نے کمایا اور عورتوں کے لئے ان میں سے حصہ ہے جو انہوں نے کمایا، اور اللہ تعالیٰ سے اس کا فضل مانگو[1] ، یقیناً اللہ ہر چیز کا جاننے واﻻ ہے۔

The translators word this verse differently
Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, as God has given some of them an advantage over others, and because they spend out of their wealth. The good women are obedient, guarding what God would have them guard. As for those from whom you fear disloyalty, admonish them, and abandon them in their beds, then strike them. But if they obey you, seek no way against them. God is Sublime, Great.
Men are in charge of women, because Allah hath made the one of them to excel the other, and because they spend of their property (for the support of women). So good women are the obedient, guarding in secret that which Allah hath guarded. As for those from whom ye fear rebellion, admonish them and banish them to beds apart, and scourge them. Then if they obey you, seek not a way against them. Lo! Allah is ever High, Exalted, Great
Men stand superior to women in that God hath preferred some of them over others, and in that they expend of their wealth: and the virtuous women, devoted, careful (in their husbands') absence, as God has cared for them. But those whose perverseness ye fear, admonish them and remove them into bed-chambers and beat them; but if they submit to you, then do not seek a way against them; verily, God is high and great
Men are superior to women on account of the qualities with which God hath gifted the one above the other, and on account of the outlay they make from their substance for them. Virtuous women are obedient, careful, during the husband's absence, because God hath of them been careful. But chide those for whose refractoriness ye have cause to fear; remove them into beds apart, and scourage them: but if they are obedient to you, then seek not occasion against them: verily, God is High, Great
Men shall have the pre-eminence above women, because of those advantages wherein God hath caused the one of them to excel the other, and for that which they expend of their substance in maintaining their wives. The honest women are obedient, careful in the absence of their husbands, for that God preserveth them, by committing them to the care and protection of the men. But those, whose perverseness ye shall be apprehensive of, rebuke; and remove them into separate apartments, and chastise them. But if they shall be obedient unto you, seek not an occasion of quarrel against them; for God is high and great

And give orphans their properties, and do not substitute the bad for the good. And do not consume their properties by combining them with yours, for that would be a serious sin.
Give unto orphans their wealth. Exchange not the good for the bad (in your management thereof) nor absorb their wealth into your own wealth. Lo! that would be a great sin
And give unto the orphans their property, and give them not the vile in exchange for the good, and devour not their property to your own property; verily, that were a great sin
And give to the orphans their property; substitute not worthless things of your own for their valuable ones, and devour not their property after adding it to your own; for this is a great crime

The translators word this verse differently
If you fear you cannot act fairly towards the orphans-then marry the women you like-two, or three, or four. But if you fear you will not be fair, then one, or what you already have. That makes it more likely that you avoid bias.
And if ye fear that ye will not deal fairly by the orphans, marry of the women, who seem good to you, two or three or four; and if ye fear that ye cannot do justice (to so many) then one (only) or (the captives) that your right hands possess. Thus it is more likely that ye will not do injustice
But if ye fear that ye cannot do justice between orphans, then marry what seems good to you of women, by twos, or threes, or fours; and if ye fear that ye cannot be equitable, then only one, or what your right hands possess. That keeps you nearer to not being partial
And if ye are apprehensive that ye shall not deal fairly with orphans, then, of other women who seem good in your eyes, marry but two, or three, or four; and if ye still fear that ye shall not act equitably, then one only; or the slaves whom ye have acquired: this will make justice on your part easier
And if ye fear that ye shall not act with equity towards orphans of the female sex, take in marriage of such other women as please you, two, or three, or four, and not more. But if ye fear that ye cannot act equitably towards so many, marry one only, or the slaves which ye shall have acquired. This will be easier, that ye swerve not from righteousness

Test the orphans until they reach the age of marriage. If you find them to be mature enough, hand over their properties to them. And do not consume it extravagantly or hastily before they grow up. The rich shall not charge any wage, but the poor may charge fairly. When you hand over their properties to them, have it witnessed for them. God suffices as a Reckoner.
Prove orphans till they reach the marriageable age; then, if ye find them of sound judgment, deliver over unto them their fortune; and devour it not by squandering and in haste lest they should grow up Whoso (of the guardians) is rich, let him abstain generously (from taking of the property of orphans); and whoso is poor let him take thereof in reason (for his guardianship). And when ye deliver up their fortune unto orphans, have (the transaction) witnessed in their presence. Allah sufficeth as a Reckoner
Prove orphans until they reach a marriageable age, and if ye perceive in them right management, then hand over to them their property, and do not devour it extravagantly in anticipation of their growing up. And he who is rich, let him abstain; but he who is poor, let him devour in reason, and when ye hand over to them their property, then take witnesses against them; but God sufficeth for taking account
And make trial of orphans until they reach the age of marriage; and if ye perceive in them a sound judgment, then hand over their substance to them; but consume ye it not wastefully, or by hastily entrusting it to them; Because they are growing up. And let the rich guardian not even touch it; and let him who is poor use it for his support (eat of it) with discretion. And when ye make over their substance to them, then take witnesses in their presence: God also maketh a sufficient account
And examine the orphans until they attain the age of marriage: But if ye perceive they are able to manage their affairs well, deliver their substance unto them; and waste it not extravagantly, or hastily, because they grow up.

But repentance is not available for those who commit evils, until when death approaches one of them, he says, "Now I repent," nor for those who die as disbelievers. These-We have prepared for them a painful torment.
The forgiveness is not for those who do ill-deeds until, when death attendeth upon one of them, he saith: Lo! I repent now; nor yet for those who die while they are disbelievers. For such We have prepared a painful doom
His turning again is not for those who do evil, until, when death comes before one of them, he says, 'Now I turn again;' nor yet forth those who die in misbelief. For such as these have we prepared a grievous woe
But no place of repentance shall there be for those who do evil, until, when death is close to one of them, he saith, "Now verily am I turned to God;" nor to those who die unbelievers. These! we have made ready for them a grievous torment
But no repentance shall be accepted from those who do evil until the time when death presenteth it self unto one of them, and he saith, verily I repent now; nor unto those who die unbelievers: For them have we prepared a grievous punishment

O you who believe! It is not permitted for you to inherit women against their will. And do not coerce them in order to take away some of what you had given them, unless they commit a proven adultery. And live with them in kindness. If you dislike them, it may be that you dislike something in which God has placed much good.
O ye who believe! It is not lawful for you forcibly to inherit the women (of your deceased kinsmen), nor (that) ye should put constraint upon them that ye may take away a part of that which ye have given them, unless they be guilty of flagrant lewdness.

O believers! it is not allowed you to be heirs of your wives against their will; nor to hinder them from marrying, in order to take from them part of the dowry you had given them, unless they have been guilty of undoubted lewdness; but associate kindly with them: for if ye are estranged from them, haply ye are estranged from that in which God hath placed abundant good
O true believers, it is not lawful for you to be heirs of women against their will, nor to hinder them from marrying others, that ye may take away part of what ye have given them in dowry; unless they have been guilty of a manifest crime: But converse kindly with them.

The translators word this verse differently
Those who are concerned about the fate of their weak children, in case they leave them behind, should fear God, and speak appropriate words.
And let those fear (in their behaviour toward orphans) who if they left behind them weak offspring would be afraid for them. So let them mind their duty to Allah, and speak justly
And let these fear lest they leave behind them a weak seed, for whom they would be afraid; and let them fear God, and speak a straightforward speech
And let those be afraid to wrong the orphans, who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would be solicitous on their account. Let them, therefore, fear God, and let them propose what is right
And let those fear to abuse orphans, who if they leave behind them a weak off-spring, are sollicitous for them: let them therefore fear God, and speak that which is convenient
4:19

O you who believe! It is not permitted for you to inherit women against their will. And do not coerce them in order to take away some of what you had given them, unless they commit a proven adultery. And live with them in kindness. If you dislike them, it may be that you dislike something in which God has placed much good.
Compare translations (4)
O ye who believe! It is not lawful for you forcibly to inherit the women (of your deceased kinsmen), nor (that) ye should put constraint upon them that ye may take away a part of that which ye have given them, unless they be guilty of flagrant lewdness. But consort with them in kindness, for if ye hate them it may happen that ye hate a thing wherein Allah hath placed much good
O ye who believe! it is not lawful for you to inherit women's estates against their will; nor to hinder them, that ye may go off with part of what ye brought them, unless they commit fornication manifestly; but associate with them in reason, for if ye are averse from them, it may be that ye are averse from something wherein God has put much good for you
O believers! it is not allowed you to be heirs of your wives against their will; nor to hinder them from marrying, in order to take from them part of the dowry you had given them, unless they have been guilty of undoubted lewdness; but associate kindly with them: for if ye are estranged from them, haply ye are estranged from that in which God hath placed abundant good
O true believers, it is not lawful for you to be heirs of women against their will, nor to hinder them from marrying others, that ye may take away part of what ye have given them in dowry; unless they have been guilty of a manifest crime: But converse kindly with them. And if ye hate them, it may happen that ye may hate a thing wherein God hath placed much good

O besimtarë! Nuk ju lejohet t'i trashëgoni gratë (e të afërmve tuaj) me forcë. As mos i shtrëngoni[9] ato (gra tuaja që nuk i doni), me qëllim që t'u merrni një pjesë të pasurisë (mehrit) që ua keni dhënë, përveç nëse bëjnë ndonjë paturpësi të qartë. Çoni jetë të mirë me to! E, nëse nuk ju pëlqejnë (durojini, sepse), është e mundur që të urreni diçka e Allahu të sjellë përmes saj mirësi të shumta.
হে মুমিনগণ! জবরদস্তি করে (সম্পদের ন্যায় তোমাদের বাপ-দাদার স্ত্রীদের) নারীদের ওয়ারিশ হওয়া তোমাদের জন্য বৈধ নয়। (এমনিভাবে) তোমাদের জন্যে বৈধ নয় যে, তোমরা তাদেরকে (মোহরানার) যা দিয়েছ তা থেকে কিছু আত্মসাৎ করার উদ্দেশ্যে তাদেরকে অবরুদ্ধ করে রাখা। তবে তারা (অবাধ্যতা ও) ব্যভিচারের ন্যায় সুস্পষ্ট অশ্লীলতায় লিপ্ত হয়ে থাকলে, ভিন্ন কথা। আর তোমরা তাদের সাথে সদ্ভাবে ও সম্মানজনকভাবে জীবন যাপন করবে। তোমরা যদি তাদেরকে (স্ত্রীদেরকে) অপছন্দ করো, তবে এমন হতে পারে যে, তোমরা একটি জিনিসকে অপছন্দ করছ আর আল্লাহ তাতে প্রভূত কল্যাণ রেখেছেন।
O vi koji vjerujete, ne dozvoljava vam se da žene preko volje njihove u naslijeđe uzimate i da im poteškoće pričinjavate s namjerom da nešto od onoga što ste im dali prisvojite, osim ako budu učinile očiti razvrat. Prema njima se lijepo ophodite. A ako prema njima ne osjetite želju, pa moguće je da ne volite nešto u čemu je Allah veliko dobro dao.

O die ihr glaubt, es ist euch nicht erlaubt, die Frauen wider (ihren) Willen zu erben. Und drangsaliert sie nicht, um (ihnen) einen Teil von dem, was ihr ihnen gegeben habt, zu nehmen, außer wenn sie etwas klar Abscheuliches begehen. Und geht in rechtlicher Weise mit ihnen um. Sollten sie euch zuwider sein, dann (kann es sein, dass) euch vielleicht etwas zuwider ist, während Allah viel Gutes in es hineinlegt.
Ω, εσείς που πιστεύετε! Απαγορεύεται να παίρνετε τις γυναίκες (τις συζύγους των πατέρων και των συγγενών σας) ως κληρονομιά (να τις αποτρέψετε από το να παντρευτούν άλλον άνδρα, ή να τις κάνετε να παντρευτούν άλλον άνδρα) παρά τη θέλησή τους. Και να μην κρατάτε αυτές (τις συζύγους σας που θέλετε να χωρίσετε, στο γάμο εμποδίζοντάς τους να παντρευτούν άλλους) για να πάρετε μέρος της προίκας που τους έχετε δώσει, εκτός κι αν διαπράξουν φανερή αισχρή πράξη (μοιχεία) (σ' αυτήν την περίπτωση επιτρέπεται να πάρετε πίσω την προίκα). Και να ζείτε μαζί τους με τον καλύτερο τρόπο. Αν τις μισείτε, ίσως να μισείτε κάτι, που ο Αλλάχ να φέρει μέσω αυτού πολλά καλά (που δεν τα περιμένετε).
ऐ ईमान वालो! तुम्हारे लिए हलाल (वैध) नहीं कि ज़बरदस्ती स्त्रियों के वारिस बन जाओ।[14] और उन्हें इसलिए न रोके रखो कि तुमने उन्हें जो कुछ दिया है, उसमें से कुछ ले लो, सिवाय इसके कि वे खुली बुराई कर बैठें। तथा उनके साथ भली-भाँति[15] जीवन व्यतीत करो। फिर यदि तुम उन्हें नापसंद करो, तो संभव है कि तुम किसी चीज़ को नापसंद करो और अल्लाह उसमें बहुत ही भलाई[16] रख दे।
O credenti, non vi è permesso ereditare le mogli contro la loro volontà! E non costringetele per sottrarre loro una parte di ciò che avete già dato loro in passato – a meno che non abbiano commesso un’evidente nefandezza – e vivete insieme a loro come si deve. Se un giorno doveste odiarle, forse odiereste una cosa in cui Allāh potrebbe aver riposto un grande bene!
19. O jūs, kurie tikite! Jums draudžiama paveldėti moteris prieš jų valią. Ir neturėtumėte su jomis elgtis grubiai, kad galėtumėte atsiimti dalį Mahr [3], kurį joms suteikėte, nebent jos atvirai užsiima neteisėtais lytiniais santykiais. Ir gyvenkite su jomis garbingai. Jei jų nemėgstate, gali būti, kad jūs nemėgstate vieno dalyko, o Allahas suteikia per jį daug gero.

О вы, которые уверовали! Не дозволено вам наследовать женщин против их воли. Не удерживайте их с целью забрать часть того, что вы им даровали, [если] только они не совершат явную мерзость, и обходитесь с ними согласно одобряемому. Если вы их невзлюбили, то, — быть может, вы невзлюбили нечто, а Аллах заложил в этом великое благо.
О ви који верујете, не дозвољава вам се да жене преко воље њихове у наслеђе узимате и да им потешкоће причињавате са намером да нешто од онога што сте им дали присвојите, осим ако буду учиниле очигледни разврат. Према њима се лепо опходите. А ако према њима не осетите жељу, па могуће је да не волите нешто у чему је Аллах велико добро дао.
Enyi mlioamini! Si halali kwenu kuwarithi wanawake kwa nguvu. Wala msiwadhikishe ili muwapokonye baadhi ya mlivyowapa, isipokuwa wakifanya uchafu ulio wazi. Na kaeni nao kwa wema. Na ikiwa mmewachukia, basi huenda mkakichukia kitu, na Mwenyezi Mungu ametia heri nyingi ndani yake.
Troende! Det är inte tillåtet för er att ärva kvinnor mot deras vilja. Behandla dem inte illa för att ta tillbaka något av det ni har gett dem, om de inte tydligt har gjort sig skyldiga till otukt. Lev med dem på ett hedersamt sätt. Och om ni känner motvilja mot dem, kan det vara så att ni känner motvilja mot något i vilket Gud har lagt mycket gott.
Ey iman edenler! (Ölen babalarınızın) kadınlarını miras yoluyla zorla almanız size helal değildir. Apaçık bir fuhuş işlemedikçe (mehir olarak) verdiklerinizin bir kısmını elde etmek için onları (başkalarıyla evlenmelerine) engel olmak için nikahınızda tutmayın. Onlarla güzel güzel geçinin. Onlardan hoşlanmasanız bile, umulur ki sizin hoşunuza gitmeyen bir şeyde Allah bir çok hayır takdir eder.
ایمان والو! تمہیں حلال نہیں کہ زبردستی عورتوں کو ورثے میں لے بیٹھو[1] انہیں اس لئے روک نہ رکھو کہ جو تم نے انہیں دے رکھا ہے، اس میں سے کچھ لے لو[2] ہاں یہ اور بات ہے کہ وه کوئی کھلی برائی اور بے حیائی کریں[3] ان کے ساتھ اچھے طریقے سے بودوباش رکھو، گو تم انہیں ناپسند کرو لیکن بہت ممکن ہے کہ تم کسی چیز کو برا جانو، اور اللہ تعالیٰ اس میں بہت ہی بھلائی کر دے۔[4]

Repentance is available from God for those who commit evil out of ignorance, and then repent soon after. These-God will relent towards them. God is Knowing and Wise.
Forgiveness is only incumbent on Allah toward those who do evil in ignorance (and) then turn quickly (in repentance) to Allah. These are they toward whom Allah relenteth. Allah is ever Knower, Wise
God is only bound to turn again towards those who do evil through ignorance and then turn again. Surely, these will God turn again to, for God is knowing, wise
With God himself will the repentance of those who have done evil ignorantly, and then turn speedily unto Him, be accepted. These! God will turn unto them: for God is Knowing, Wise
Verily repentance will be accepted with God, from those who do evil ignorantly, and then repent speedily; unto them will God be turned: For God is knowing and wise

But repentance is not available for those who commit evils, until when death approaches one of them, he says, "Now I repent," nor for those who die as disbelievers. These-We have prepared for them a painful torment.
The forgiveness is not for those who do ill-deeds until, when death attendeth upon one of them, he saith: Lo! I repent now; nor yet for those who die while they are disbelievers. For such We have prepared a painful doom
His turning again is not for those who do evil, until, when death comes before one of them, he says, 'Now I turn again;' nor yet forth those who die in misbelief. For such as these have we prepared a grievous woe
But no place of repentance shall there be for those who do evil, until, when death is close to one of them, he saith, "Now verily am I turned to God;" nor to those who die unbelievers. These! we have made ready for them a grievous torment
But no repentance shall be accepted from those who do evil until the time when death presenteth it self unto one of them, and he saith, verily I repent now; nor unto those who die unbelievers: For them have we prepared a grievous punishment

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it5 of the 6 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page
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.
Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 4:32, 4:4, 4:20-21, 4:7, 4:19, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.
How this set was arrived at. The verses were found by a word search of the four public-domain translations, using terms chosen by the editor and listed here as they were searched - unto + men + a + fortune + from + that + which + they + have + earned; unto + women + a + fortune; covet + not + the + thing + in + which + god + hath + made + some + of + you + excel; give + unto + the + women + their + marriage + portions; of + their + own + accord + remit. The search was a way of finding passages, not a judgement about what they mean: that several translators chose the same English word is not evidence about the Arabic. A different choice of terms gives a different set.
What was returned and not carried. 1 verse(s) the search qualified are recorded as not carried with a reason each, rather than silently discarded: 5:5 - carried by the study Can a Muslim marry a Jew or a Christian, per the Qur'an?
Verses carried by more than one study. Some passages here also serve another study. Each carries its own reason in each place, and the reason states where else it appears.
Where the translations part company, named rather than resolved. How differently the translations word each verse is shown on that verse's page, and the study names the differences it turns on rather than choosing between them.
