يَا أَيُّهَا
النَّبِيُّ
إِذَا
جَاءَكَ
الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ
يُبَايِعْنَكَ
عَلَى
أَن
لَّا
يُشْرِكْنَ
بِاللَّهِ
شَيْئًا
وَلَا
يَسْرِقْنَ
وَلَا
يَزْنِينَ
وَلَا
يَقْتُلْنَ
أَوْلَادَهُنَّ
وَلَا
يَأْتِينَ
بِبُهْتَانٍ
يَفْتَرِينَهُ
بَيْنَ
أَيْدِيهِنَّ
وَأَرْجُلِهِنَّ
وَلَا
يَعْصِينَكَ
فِي
مَعْرُوفٍ
فَبَايِعْهُنَّ
وَاسْتَغْفِرْ
لَهُنَّ
اللَّهَ
إِنَّ
اللَّهَ
غَفُورٌ
رَّحِيمٌ

O Prophet! If faithful women come to you, to take the oath of allegiance to you, [pledging] that they shall not ascribe any partners to Allah, that they shall not steal, nor commit adultery, nor kill their children, nor utter any slander that they may have intentionally fabricated, nor disobey you in what is right, then accept their allegiance, and plead for them to Allah for forgiveness. Indeed Allah is all-forgiving, all-merciful
— Ali Quli Qarai
O Prophet! When believing women come to thee to take the oath of fealty to thee, that they will not associate in worship any other thing whatever with Allah, that they will not steal, that they will not commit adultery (or fornication), that they will not kill their children, that they will not utter slander, intentionally forging falsehood, and that they will not disobey thee in any just matter,- then do thou receive their fealty, and pray to Allah for the forgiveness (of their sins): for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
