النَّبِيُّ
أَوْلَى
بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ
مِنْ
أَنفُسِهِمْ
وَأَزْوَاجُهُ
أُمَّهَاتُهُمْ
وَأُولُو
الْأَرْحَامِ
بَعْضُهُمْ
أَوْلَى
بِبَعْضٍ
فِي
كِتَابِ
اللَّهِ
مِنَ
الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ
إِلَّا
أَن
تَفْعَلُوا
إِلَى
أَوْلِيَائِكُم
مَّعْرُوفًا
كَانَ
ذَلِكَ
فِي
الْكِتَابِ
مَسْطُورًا

The Prophet has more authority over the believers than themselves. His wives are their mothers. The relatives are closer to each other, according to the Book of God, than the believers and the emigrants. However, you may show kindness to your guardians. This also is written in the Book.
