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

O ye who believe! When ye marry believing women, and then divorce them before ye have touched them, no period of 'Iddat have ye to count in respect of them: so give them a present. And set them free in a handsome manner.
— Abdullah Yusufali
O you who have faith! When you marry faithful women and then divorce them before you touch them, there shall be no period for you to reckon. But provide for them and release them in a graceful manner.
