2.83 ... treat with kindness your parents and kindred, and orphans and those in need; speak fair to the people; be steadfast in prayer; and give Zakat [regular charity] ...
2.84 ... Shed no blood amongst you, nor turn out your own people from your homes ...
2.148 ... then strive together (as in a race) towards all that is good. ...
2.168 ... Eat of what is on Earth, lawful and good ...
2.177 ... to spend of your substance, ... for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; ... and give Zakat; to fulfill the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. ...
2.178 ... the law of equality is prescribed to you in cases of murder: the free for the free, the slave for the slave, the woman for the woman. But if the brother of the slain makes any remission, then grant any reasonable demand, and compensate him with handsome gratitude, ...
2.180 ... when death approaches any of you, if he leave any goods that he make a bequest to parents and next of kin, according to reasonable usage; ...
2.181 If anyone changes the bequest after hearing it, the guilt shall be on those who make the change. ...
2.182 But if anyone fears partiality or wrong-doing on the part of the testator, and brings about a settlement amongst (the parties concerned), there is no wrong in him: ...
2.183 ... Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint,
2.184 for a fixed number of days; but if any of you is ill, or on a journey, observe the prescribed number within days later. For those who can do it (with hardship), is a ransom, the feeding of one that is indigent. But he that will give more, of his own free will, it is better for him. And it is better for you that ye fast, if ye only knew.
2.187 Permitted to you, on the night of the fasts, is the approach to your wives. They are your garments and ye are their garments. ... so now associate with them, ... and eat and drink, until the white thread of dawn appear to you distinct from its black thread; then complete your fast till the night appears; but do not associate with your wives while ye are in retreat in the mosques. ...
2.188 And do not eat up your property among yourselves for vanities, nor use it as bait for the judges, with intent that ye may eat up wrongfully and knowingly a little of (other) people's property.
2.189 They ask thee concerning the New Moons. Say: They are but signs to mark fixed periods of time in (the affairs of) men, and for Pilgrimage. It is no virtue if ye enter your houses from the back: ... Enter houses through the proper doors: ...
2.190 Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits; ...
2.191 And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out; for persecution and oppression are worse than slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first) fight you there; but if they fight you, slay them. Such is the reward of those who suppress faith.
2.193 And fight them on until there is no more persecution or oppression, ... But if they cease. Let there be no hostility except to those who practice oppression.
2.194 The prohibited month for the prohibited month, and so for all things prohibited, there is the law of equality. If then any one transgresses the prohibition against you, transgress ye likewise against him. ...
2.195 ... make not your own hands contribute to (your) destruction; but do good; ...
2.215 ... Whatever wealth ye spend that is good, is for parents and kindred and orphans and those in want and for wayfarers. ...
2.216 Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. ...
2.219 They ask thee concerning wine and gambling. Say: "In them is great sin, and some profit, for men; but the sin is greater than the profit." They ask thee how much they are to spend; Say: "What is beyond your needs." ...
2.220 ... They ask thee concerning orphans. Say: "The best thing to do is what is for their good; if ye mix their affairs with yours, they are your brethren; ..."
2.222 They ask thee concerning women's courses. Say: They are a hurt and a pollution: So keep away from women in their courses, and do not approach them until they are clean. But when they have purified themselves, ye may approach them ...
2.223 Your wives are as a tilth unto you; so approach your tilth when or how ye will; but do some good act for your souls beforehand; ...
2.228 Divorced women shall wait concerning themselves for three monthly periods. Nor is it lawful for them to hide what Allah Hath created in their wombs, if they have faith in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands have the better right to take them back in that period, if they wish for reconciliation. And women shall have rights similar to the rights against them, according to what is equitable; but men have a degree (of advantage) over them. ...
2.229 A divorce is only permissible twice: after that, the parties should either hold together on equitable terms, or separate with kindness. It is not lawful for you, (men), to take back any of your gifts (from your wives), except when both parties fear that they would be unable to keep the limits ordained by Allah. If ye (judges) do indeed fear that they would be unable to keep the limits ordained by Allah, there is no blame on either of them if she give something for her freedom. ...
2.230 So if a husband divorces his wife (irrevocably), he cannot, after that, remarry her until after she has married another husband and he has divorced her. In that case there is no blame on either of them if they reunite, provided they feel that they can keep the limits ordained by Allah. ...
2.231 When ye divorce women, and they (are about to) fulfill the term of their (iddah), either take them back on equitable terms or set them free on equitable terms; but do not take them back to injure them, (or) to take undue advantage; if any one does that; he wrongs his own soul. ...
2.232 When ye divorce women, and they fulfill the term of their (iddah), do not prevent them from marrying their (former) husbands, if they mutually agree on equitable terms. ...
2.233 The mothers shall give suck to their offspring for two whole years, for him (the father) who desires to complete the term. But he shall bear the cost of their food and clothing on equitable terms. No soul shall have a burden laid on it greater than it can bear. No mother shall be treated unfairly on account of her child. Nor father on account of his child, an heir shall be chargeable in the same way. If they both decide on weaning, by mutual consent, and after due consultation, there is no blame on them. If ye decide on a foster-mother for your offspring, there is no blame on you, provided ye pay (the foster mother) what ye offered, on equitable terms. ...
2.234 If any of you die and leave widows behind, they shall wait concerning themselves four months and ten days: When they have fulfilled their term, there is no blame on you if they dispose of themselves in a just and reasonable manner. ...
2.235 There is no blame on you if ye make an indirect offer of betrothal or hold it in your hearts. Allah knows that ye cherish them in your hearts: But do not make a secret contract with them except in terms honorable, nor resolve on the tie of marriage till the term prescribed is fulfilled. ...
2.236 There is no blame on you if ye divorce women before consummation or the fixation of their dower; but bestow on them (A suitable gift), the wealthy according to his means, and the poor according to his means; a gift of a reasonable amount is due from those who wish to do the right thing.
2.237 And if ye divorce them before consummation, but after the fixation of a dower for them, then the half of the dower (is due to them), unless they remit it or (the man's half) is remitted by him in whose hands is the marriage tie; and the remission (of the man's half) is the nearest to righteousness. And do not forget liberality between yourselves. ...
2.240 Those of you who die and leave widows should bequeath for their widows a year's maintenance and residence; but if they leave (the residence), there is no blame on you for what they do with themselves, provided it is reasonable. ...
2.241 For divorced women maintenance (should be provided) on a reasonable (scale). This is a duty on the righteous.
2.256 Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error: whoever rejects Taghut (evil) and believes in Allah hath grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks. ...
2.263 Kind words and the covering of faults are better than charity followed by injury. ...
2.264 ... cancel not your charity by reminders of your generosity or by injury, like those who spend their wealth to be seen of men, ... They are in parable like a hard, barren rock, on which is a little soil: on it falls heavy rain, which leaves it (just) a bare stone. They will be able to do nothing with aught they have earned. ...
2.267 ... Give of the good things which ye have (honorably) earned, and of the fruits of the earth which We have produced for you, and do not even aim at getting anything which is bad, in order that out of it ye may give away something, when ye yourselves would not receive it except with closed eyes. ...
2.271 If ye disclose (acts of) charity, even so it is well, but if ye conceal them, and make them reach those (really) in need, that is best for you: It will remove from you some of your (stains of) evil. ...
2.274 Those who (in charity) spend of their goods by night and by day, in secret and in public, have their reward ... on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
2.280 If the debtor is in a difficulty, grant him time till it is easy for him to repay. But if ye remit it by way of charity, that is best for you if ye only knew.
2.282 ... When ye deal with each other, in transactions involving future obligations in a fixed period of time, reduce them to writing. Let a scribe write down faithfully as between the parties: let not the scribe refuse to write: ... Let him who incurs the liability dictate, ... and not diminish aught of what he owes. If the party liable is mentally deficient, or weak, or unable himself to dictate, let his guardian dictate faithfully. And get two witnesses, out of your own men, and if there are not two men, then a man and two women, such as ye choose, for witnesses, so that if one of them errs, the other can remind her. The witnesses should not refuse when called on (for evidence). Disdain not to reduce to writing (your contract) for a future period, whether it be small or big; ... but if it be a transaction which ye carry out on the spot among yourselves, there is no blame on you if ye reduce it not to writing. But take witness whenever ye make a commercial contract; and let neither scribe nor witness suffer harm. ...
2.283 If ye are on a journey, and cannot find a scribe, a pledge with possession (may serve the purpose). And if one of you deposits a thing on trust with another, Let the trustee (faithfully) discharge his trust, ... Conceal not evidence; for whoever conceals it, His heart is tainted with sin. ...
3.17 Those who show patience (firmness and self-control); who are true (in word and deed); who worship devoutly; ... and who pray for forgiveness in the early hours of the morning.
4.2 To orphans restore their property (when they reach their age), nor substitute (your) worthless things for (their) good ones; and devour not their substance (by mixing it up) with your own. ...
4.3 If ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, marry women of your choice, two or three or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a captive) that your right hands possess, that will be more suitable ...
4.4 And give the women (on marriage) their dower as a free gift; but if they, of their own good pleasure, remit any part of it to you, take it and enjoy it with right good cheer.
4.5 To those weak of understanding give not your property ...but feed and clothe them therewith, and speak to them words of kindness and justice.
4.6 Make trial of orphans until they reach the age of marriage; if then ye find sound judgment in them, release their property to them; but consume it not wastefully, nor in haste against their growing up. If the guardian is well-off, let him claim no remuneration, but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable. When ye release their property to them, take witnesses in their presence: ...
4.7 From what is left by parents and those nearest related there is a share for men and a share for women, whether the property be small or large, a determinate share.
4.8 But if at the time of division other relatives, or orphans or poor, are present, give them out of the (property), and speak to them words of kindness and justice.
4.9 Let those (disposing of an estate) have the same fear in their minds as they would have for their own if they had left a helpless family behind: ... and speak words of appropriate (comfort).
4.11 ... as regards your children's (inheritance): to the male, a portion equal to that of two females: if only daughters, two or more, their share is two-thirds of the inheritance; if only one, her share is a half. For parents, a sixth share of the inheritance to each, if the deceased left children; if no children, and the parents are the (only) heirs, the mother has a third; if the deceased left brothers (or sisters) the mother has a sixth.
The distribution in all cases is after the payment of legacies and debts. Ye know not whether your parents or your children are nearest to you in benefit. ...
4.12 In what your wives leave, your share is a half, if they leave no child; but if they leave a child, ye get a fourth; after payment of legacies and debts. In what ye leave, their share is a fourth, if ye leave no child; but if ye leave a child, they get an eighth; after payment of legacies and debts. If the man or woman whose inheritance is in question, has left neither ascendants nor descendants, but has left a brother or a sister, each one of the two gets a sixth; but if more than two, they share in a third; after payment of legacies and debts; so that no loss is caused (to any one). ...
4.15 If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four (reliable) witnesses from amongst you against them; and if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them, ...
4.16 If two men among you are guilty of lewdness, punish them both. If they repent and amend, leave them alone; ...
4.19 ... Ye are forbidden to inherit women against their will. Nor should ye treat them with harshness, that ye may take away part of the dower ye have given them, except where they have been guilty of open lewdness; on the contrary live with them on a footing of kindness and equity. If ye take a dislike to them it may be that ye dislike a thing, ...
4.20 But if ye decide to take one wife in place of another, even if ye had given the latter a whole treasure for dower, take not the least bit of it back: Would ye take it by slander and manifest wrong?
4.21 And how could ye take it when ye have gone in unto each other, and they have Taken from you a solemn covenant?
4.22 And marry not women whom your fathers married, except what is past: It was shameful and odious, an abominable custom indeed.
4.23 Prohibited to you (for marriage) are: your mothers, daughters, sisters; father's sisters, mother's sisters; brother's daughters, sister's daughters; foster-mothers who gave you suck, foster-sisters; your wives' mothers; your step-daughters under your guardianship, born of your wives to whom ye have gone in, no prohibition if ye have not gone in; (those who have been) wives of your sons proceeding from your loins; and two sisters in wedlock at one and the same time, except for what is past; ...
4.24 Also (prohibited are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess: ... Except for these, all others are lawful, provided ye seek (them in marriage) with gifts from your property, desiring chastity, not fornication from them. Give them their dowers (at least) as prescribed; but if, after a dower is prescribed, agree Mutually (to vary it), there is no blame on you, ...
4.25 If any of you have not the means wherewith to wed free believing women, they may wed believing girls from among those whom your right hands possess: ... Ye are one from another: Wed them with the leave of their owners, and give them their dowers, according to what is reasonable: They should be chaste, not lustful, nor taking paramours: when they are taken in wedlock, if they fall into shame, their punishment is half that for free women. This (permission) is for those among you who fear sin; but it is better for you that ye practice self-restraint. ...
4.29 ... Eat not up your property among yourselves in vanities: But let there be amongst you traffic and trade by mutual good-will: Nor kill (or destroy) yourselves: ...
4.32 And in no wise covet those things in which Allah Hath bestowed His gifts more freely on some of you than on others: to men is allotted what they earn, and to women what they earn: ...
4.33 To (benefit) every one, We have appointed shares and heirs to property left by parents and relatives. To those, also, to whom your right hand was pledged, give their due portion. ...
4.34 Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (next), refuse to share their beds, (and last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them means (of annoyance): ...
4.35 If ye fear a breach between them twain, appoint (two) arbiters, one from his family, and the other from hers; ...
4.36 ... and do good, to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, those in need, neighbors who are of kin, neighbors who are strangers, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (ye meet), and what your right hands possess: ...
5.1 ... fulfill (all) obligations. Lawful unto you (for food) are all beasts of cattle, with the exceptions named: But animals of the chase are forbidden while ye are in the sacred precincts or in the state of pilgrimage: ...
5.3 Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah; that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. ... But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression ...
5.4 They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food). Say: Lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure: and what ye have taught your trained hunting animals (to catch) ...
5.5 This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before your time, when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues. ...
5.8 ... as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice. Be just: that is next to piety: ...
5.32 ... if any one slew a person, unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land, it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. ...
5.38 As to the thief, male or female, cut off his or her hands: a retribution for their deeds, and exemplary punishment ...
5.45 ... "Life for life, eye for eye, nose or nose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal." But if any one remits the retaliation by way of charity, it is an act of atonement for himself. ...
7.31 ... eat and drink: But waste not by excess ...
8.41 And know that out of all the booty that ye may acquire (in war), a fifth share is assigned to Allah, and to the Messenger, and to near relatives, orphans, the needy, and the wayfarer ...
8.61 But if the enemy incline towards peace, do thou (also) incline towards peace, ...
8.69 But (now) enjoy what ye took in war, lawful and good: ...
9.4 (But the treaties are) not dissolved with those Pagans with whom ye have entered into alliance and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor aided any one against you. So fulfill your engagements with them to the end of their term: ...
9.7 ... As long as these stand true to you, stand ye true to them: ...
10.36 But most of them follow nothing but conjecture: truly conjecture can be of no avail against Truth. ...
11.11 Not so do those who show patience and constancy, and work righteousness; ...
16.71 And Allah has made for you mates (and companions) of your own nature, and made for you, out of them, sons and daughters and grandchildren, and provided for you sustenance of the best: ...
17.23 ... and that ye be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honor.
17.24 And, out of kindness, lower to them the wing of humility, and say: "My Lord! bestow on them Thy Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood."
17.26 And render to the kindred their due rights, as (also) to those in want, and to the wayfarer: But squander not (your wealth) in the manner of a spendthrift.
17.31 Kill not your children for fear of want: We shall provide sustenance for them as well as for you. Verily the killing of them is a great sin.
17.32 Nor come nigh to adultery: for it is an indecent (deed) and an evil way.
17.33 Nor take life ... except for just cause. And if anyone is slain wrongfully, we have given his heir authority (to demand Qisás or to forgive): but let him nor exceed bounds in the matter of taking life; for he is helped (by the Law).
17.34 Come not nigh to the orphan's property except to improve it, until he attains the age of full strength; and fulfill (every) engagement, ...
17.35 Give full measure when ye measure, and weigh with a balance that is straight: ...
17.36 And pursue not that of which thou hast no knowledge; ...
17.37 Nor walk on the earth with insolence: for thou canst not rend the earth asunder, nor reach the mountains in height.
18.23 Nor say of anything, "I shall be sure to do so and so tomorrow."
22.39 To those against whom war is made, permission is given (to fight), because they are wronged; ...
22.60 ... And if one has retaliated to no greater extent than the injury he received, and is again set upon inordinately, Allah will help him: ...
23.3 Who avoid vain talk;
23.4 Who are active in giving Zakat;
23.5 Who guard their modesty,
23.6 Except with those joined to them in the marriage bond, or (the captives) whom their right hands possess, for (in their case) they are free from blame,
23.7 But those whose desires exceed those limits are transgressors;
23.8 Those who faithfully observe their trusts and their covenants,
24.2 The woman and the man guilty of fornication, flog each of them with a hundred stripes. Let not compassion move you in their case, ...
24.3 The adulterer cannot have sexual relations with any but an adulteress, or idolatress. And the adulteress, none can have sexual relations with her but an adulterer or an idolater: ...
24.4 And those who launch a charge against chaste women, and produce not four witnesses (to support their allegations), flog them with eighty stripes; and reject their evidence ever after: for such men are wicked transgressors;
24.6 And for those who launch a charge against their wives, and have (in support) no evidence but their own, let one of them testify four times by Allah that he is of those who speak the truth;
24.7 And the fifth (oath) (should be) that he solemnly invoke the curse of Allah on himself if he tell a lie.
24.8 But it would avert the punishment from the wife, if she bears witness four times (with an oath) By Allah, that (her husband) is telling a lie;
24.9 And the fifth (oath) should be that she solemnly invokes the wrath of Allah on herself if (her accuser) is telling the truth.
24.22 Let not those among you who are endued with grace and amplitude of means resolve by oath against helping their kinsmen, those in want, and those who have left their homes in Allah's cause: let them forgive and overlook, ...
24.23 Those who slander chaste, indiscreet, and believing women, are cursed in this life ...
24.26 Women impure are for men impure, and men impure for women impure and women of purity are for men of purity, and men of purity are for women of purity: these are innocent of all what people say: for them there is forgiveness, and a provision honorable.
24.27 ... Enter not houses other than your own, until ye have asked permission and saluted those in them: ...
24.28 If ye find no one in the house, enter not until permission is given to you: if ye are asked to go back, go back: ...
24.29 It is no fault on your part to enter houses not lived in, which serve some (other) use for you: ...
24.30 Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: ...
24.31 And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male attendants free of sexual desires, or small children who have no carnal of women; and that they should not strike their feet to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. ...
24.32 Marry those among you who are single, or the virtuous ones among yourselves, male or female: ...
24.33 Let those who find not the wherewithal for marriage keep themselves chaste, ... And if any of your slaves ask for a deed in writing (for emancipation), give them such a deed if ye know any good in them: yea, give them something yourselves ... But force not your maids to prostitution when they desire chastity, in order that ye may make a gain in the goods of this life. ...
24.58 ... Let those whom your right hands possess, and the (children) among you who have not come of age ask your permission (before they come to your presence), on three occasions: before morning prayer; the while ye doff your clothes for the noonday heat; and after the late-night prayer: these are your three times of undress: outside those times it is not wrong for you or for them to move about attending to each other. ...
24.59 But when the children among you come of age, let them (also) ask for permission, as do those senior to them (in age). ...
25.67 Those who, when they spend, are not extravagant and not niggardly, but hold a just (balance) between those (extremes);
25.68 ... nor slay such life as Allah has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; ...
25.72 Those who witness no falsehood, and, if they pass by futility, they pass by it with honorable (avoidance);
28.55 And when they hear vain talk, they turn away therefrom and say: "To us our deeds, and to you yours; peace be to you: we seek not the ignorant."
28.56 It is true thou wilt not be able to guide every one whom thou lovest; ...
28.77 ... nor forget thy portion in this world: but do thou good, ... and seek not (occasions for) mischief in the land: ...
29.8 We have enjoined on man kindness to parents: ...
29.29 "Do ye indeed approach men, and cut off the highway? and practice wickedness (even) in your councils?" ...
30.38 So give what is due to kindred, the needy, and the wayfarer. ...
30.39 That which you give in usury for increase through the property of (other) people, will have no increase ... but that which you give for charity, ... (will increase) ...
31.14 ... (to be good) to his parents: in travail upon travail did his mother bear him, and in years twain was his weaning: ... "Show gratitude ... to thy parents: "...
31.17 ... establish regular prayer, enjoin what is just, and forbid what is wrong: and bear with patient constancy whatever betide thee; for this is firmness (of purpose) in (the conduct of) affairs.
31.18 "And swell not thy cheek (for pride) at men, nor walk in insolence through the earth; "...
31.19 "And be moderate in thy pace, and lower thy voice; for the harshest of sounds without doubt is the braying of the ass."
32.15 ... nor are they (ever) puffed up with pride.
32.16 ... and they spend (in charity) out of the sustenance which We have bestowed on them. ...
33.6 ... nevertheless do ye what is just to your closest friends: ...
33.32 ... be not too complacent of speech, lest one in whose heart is a disease should feel desire: but speak ye a speech (that is) just.
33.33 And stay quietly in your houses, and make not a dazzling display, like that of the former Times of Ignorance; ... and give Zakat; ...
33.49 ... When ye marry believing women, and then divorce them before ye have touched them, no period of iddah have ye to count in respect of them: so give them a present, and release them in a handsome manner.
33.50 ... We have made lawful to thee thy wives to whom thou hast paid their dowers; and those whom thy right hand possesses out of the captives of war whom Allah has assigned to thee; and daughters of thy paternal uncles and aunts, and daughters of thy maternal uncles and aunts, who migrated (from Makkah) with thee; and any believing woman who gives herself to the Prophet if the Prophet wishes to wed her; this only for thee, and not for the Believers (at large); We know what We have appointed for them as to their wives and the captives whom their right hands possess; in order that there should be no difficulty for thee. ...
33.51 Thou mayest defer (the turn of) any of them that thou pleasest, and thou mayest receive any thou pleasest: and there is no blame on thee if thou invite one whose (turn) thou hadst set aside. This were nigher to the cooling of their eyes, the prevention of their grief, and their satisfaction, that of all of them, with that which thou hast to give them: ...
33.52 It is not lawful for thee (to marry more) women after this, nor to change them for (other) wives, even though their beauty attract thee, except any thy right hand should possess (as handmaidens): ...
33.55 There is no blame (on these ladies if they appear) before their fathers or their sons, their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the (slaves) whom their right hands possess. ...
33.59 ... Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when out of doors): that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested. ...
38.26 ... so judge thou between men in truth (and justice): nor follow thou the lust (of thy heart), ...
41.34 Nor can Goodness and Evil be equal. Repel (Evil) with what is better: then will he between whom and thee was hatred become as it were thy friend and intimate!
41.35 And no one will be granted such goodness except those who exercise patience and self-restraint, none but persons of the greatest good fortune.
42.37 Those who avoid the greater sins and indecencies, and, when they are angry even then forgive;
42.38 ... who (conduct) their affairs by mutual Consultation; who spend out of what We bestow on them for Sustenance;
42.39 And those who, when an oppressive wrong is inflicted on them, (do not cower but) help and defend themselves.
42.40 The recompense for an injury is an injury equal thereto (in degree): but if a person forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from Allah: ...
42.41 But indeed if any do help and defend himself after a wrong (done) to him, against such there is no cause of blame.
42.42 The blame is only against those who oppress men with wrong-doing and insolently transgress beyond bounds through the land, defying right and justice: ...
42.43 But indeed if any show patience and forgive, that would truly be an affair of great resolution.
47.4 Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; at length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind (the captives) firmly: thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: until the war lays down its burdens. ...
48.17 No blame is there on the blind, nor is there blame on the lame, nor on one ill (if he joins not the war): ...
49.6 ... If a wicked person comes to you with any news, ascertain the truth, lest ye harm people unwittingly, and afterwards become full of repentance for what ye have done.
49.9 If two parties among the Believers fall into a fight, make ye peace between them: but if one of them transgresses beyond bounds against the other then fight ye (all) against the one that transgresses until it complies with the command of Allah; but if it complies then make peace between them with justice and be fair: ...
49.11 ... Let not some men among you laugh at others: it may be that the (latter) are better than the (former): nor let some women laugh at others: it may be that the (latter are better than the former): nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames: Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (used of one) after he has believed: and those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong.
49.12 ... Avoid suspicion as much (as possible): for suspicion in some cases is a sin: and spy not on each other, nor speak ill of each other behind their backs. ...
51.17 They were in the habit of sleeping but little by night,
51.19 And in their wealth there is a due share for the beggar and the deprived.
53.32 ... Therefore justify not yourselves: ...
57.18 For those who give in Charity, men and women, ... it shall increase manifold (to their credit), and they shall have (besides) a generous reward.
57.20 Know ye (all), that the life of this world is but play and pastime, adornment and mutual boasting and multiplying, (in rivalry) among yourselves, riches and children. Here is a similitude: how rain and the growth which it brings forth, delight (the hearts of) the tillers; soon it withers; thou wilt see it grow yellow; then it becomes dry and crumbles away. ... And what is the life of this world, but goods and chattels of deception?
57.23 In order that ye may not despair over matters that pass you by, nor exult over favors bestowed upon you. ...
58.2 If any men among you divorce their wives by Zihár (calling them mothers), they cannot be their mothers: None can be their mothers except those who gave them birth. ...
58.3 But those who pronounce the word Zihár to their wives, then wish to go back on the words they uttered, (it is ordained that such a one) should free a slave before they touch each other: thus are ye admonished to perform: ...
58.4 And if any has not (the means), he should fast for two months consecutively before they touch each other. But if any is unable to do so, he should feed sixty indigent ones, ...
60.8 Allah forbids you not, with regard to those who fight you not for (your) Faith nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them: ...
60.9 Allah only forbids you, with regard to those who fight you for (your) Faith, and drive you out of your homes, and support (others) in driving you out, from turning to them (for friendship and protection). It is such as turn to them (in these circumstances), that do wrong.
60.10 ... When there come to you believing women refugees, examine (and test) them: ... if ye ascertain that they are Believers, then send them not back to the Unbelievers. They are not lawful (wives) for the Unbelievers, nor are the (Unbelievers) lawful (husbands) for them. But pay the Unbelievers what they have spent (on their dower), and there will be no blame on you if ye marry them on payment of their dower to them. But hold not to the ties (marriage contract) of unbelieving women: ask for what ye have spent on their dowers, and let the (Unbelievers) ask for what they have spent (on the dowers of women who come over to you). ...
60.11 And if any of your wives deserts you to the Unbelievers, and ye have your turn (by the coming over of a woman from the other side), then pay to those whose wives have deserted the equivalent of what they had spent (on their dower). ...
60.12 ... 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, ...
63.10 And spend something (in charity) out of the substance which We have bestowed on you, before Death should come to any of you ...
65.1 ... When ye do divorce women, divorce them at their prescribed periods, and count (accurately), their prescribed periods: ... and turn them not out of their houses, nor shall they (themselves) leave, except in case they are guilty of some open lewdness, ...
65.2 Thus when they fulfill their term appointed, either take them back on equitable terms or part with them on equitable terms; and take for witness two persons from among you, endued with justice, and establish the evidence ...
65.4 Such of your women as have passed the age of monthly courses, for them the prescribed period, if ye have any doubts, is three months, and for those who have no courses (it is the same): for those who are pregnant, their period is until they deliver their burdens: ...
65.6 Let the women live (in iddah) in the same style as ye live, according to your means: annoy them not, so as to restrict them. And if they are pregnant, then spend (your substance) on them until they deliver their burden: and if they suckle your (offspring), give them their recompense: and take mutual counsel together, according to what is just and reasonable. And if ye find yourselves in difficulties, let another woman suckle (the child) on the (father's) behalf.
65.7 Let the man of means spend according to his means: and the man whose resources are restricted, let him spend according to what Allah has given him. ...
66.5 It may be, if he divorced you (all), that Allah will give him in exchange consorts better than you, who submit (their wills), who believe, who are devout, ... who fast, previously married or virgins.
70.24 And those in whose wealth is a recognized right.
70.25 For the (needy) who asks and him who is deprived (for some reason from asking);
70.29 And those who guard their chastity,
70.30 Except with their wives and the (captives) whom their right hands possess, for (then) they are not to be blamed,
70.32 And those who respect their trusts and covenants;
70.33 And those who stand firm in their testimonies;
76.7 They perform (their) vows, ...
76.8 And they feed, ... the indigent, the orphan, and the captive,
81.8 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned,
81.9 For what crime she was killed;
83.1 Woe to those that deal in fraud,
83.2 Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,
83.3 But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.
89.17 Nay, nay! but ye honor not the orphans!
89.18 Nor do ye encourage one another to feed the poor!
89.19 And ye devour inheritance, all with greed,
89.20 And ye love wealth with inordinate love!
90.12 And what will explain to thee the path that is steep?
90.13 (It is) freeing the bondman;
90.14 Or the giving of food in a day of privation
90.15 To the orphan with claims of relationship,
90.16 Or to the indigent (down) in the dust.
90.17 Then will he be of those who believe, and enjoin patience, constancy, and self-restraint, and enjoin deeds of kindness and compassion.
92.18 Those who spend their wealth for increase in self-purification,
92.19 And have in their minds no favor from anyone for which a reward is expected in return,
93.9 Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,
93.10 Nor repulse him who asks;
104.1 Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and backbiter,
104.2 Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
107.2 Then such is the (one) who repulses the orphan,
107.3 And encourages not the feeding of the indigent.
