يَا أَيُّهَا
الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا
إِذَا
نَكَحْتُمُ
الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ
ثُمَّ
طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ
مِن
قَبْلِ
أَن
تَمَسُّوهُنَّ
فَمَا
لَكُمْ
عَلَيْهِنَّ
مِنْ
عِدَّةٍ
تَعْتَدُّونَهَا
فَمَتِّعُوهُنَّ
وَسَرِّحُوهُنَّ
سَرَاحًا
جَمِيلًا

Believers, if you marry believing women and then divorce them before the consummation of the marriage, they do not have to observe the waiting period. Give them their provisions and set them free in an honorable manner.
