And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, Allah will appoint a way out for him,” (65:2) 43 00:03:34,750 --> 00:03:40,879 So when the divorced women who are in their waiting period reach their term. 44 00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:44,280 And that is when the end of their waiting period is near. 45 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:49,280 Then retain them with a reconciliation, taking them back if you desire that. 46 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,879 In accordance with what Allah has commanded of retention. 47 00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:56,879 And that is by giving her the rights which Allah has obligated upon him for her. 48 00:03:56,879 --> 00:04:00,879 Of maintenance, clothing, housing, and good companionship. 49 00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:04,879 Or leave them until their waiting period ends. 50 00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:06,879 Then separate from them with kindness. 51 00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:10,879 Meaning by fulfilling what is her right upon him. 52 00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:14,879 Of the dowry and the gift of consolation, according to what He has obligated upon him for her. 53 00:04:14,879 --> 00:04:18,879 And call to witness the retention if you retain them. 54 00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:20,879 And that is the reconciliation. 55 00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:25,879 Two just men from among you, whose religion and trustworthiness are pleasing. 56 00:04:25,879 --> 00:04:28,879 And bear witness for the sake of the truth when you are called to testify. 57 00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:33,879 And perform it with integrity when you are called to fulfill it. 58 00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:36,009 This which I have commanded you. 59 00:04:36,009 --> 00:04:38,009 And informed you of regarding the matter of divorce. 60 00:04:38,009 --> 00:04:43,009 And what is due from some of you to others at the time of separation and retention. 61 00:04:43,009 --> 00:04:45,009 Is an admonition from Us to you. 62 00:04:45,009 --> 00:04:49,009 We admonish with it whoever possesses the quality of faith in Allah. 63 00:04:49,009 --> 00:04:53,009 And whoever fears Allah, so he acts according to what He has commanded him. 64 00:04:53,009 --> 00:04:55,009 And avoids what He has forbidden him. 65 00:04:55,009 --> 00:04:58,009 He will make for him a way out of his affair. 66 00:04:58,009 --> 00:05:02,009 By letting him know that what has been decreed must come to pass. 67 00:05:02,009 --> 00:05:08,009 And that is that if the husband divorces as Allah has directed him for the waiting period. 68 00:05:08,009 --> 00:05:11,009 And he does not reconcile with her during the waiting period until it ends. 69 00:05:11,009 --> 00:05:14,009 Then his heart still yearns for her. 70 00:05:14,009 --> 00:05:18,009 Allah makes for him a way out regarding that which his heart yearns for. 71 00:05:18,009 --> 00:05:22,009 By providing him the path to propose to her and marry her again. 72 00:05:22,009 --> 00:05:27,009 Whereas if he had divorced her three times, he would have no path to that. 73 00:05:27,009 --> 00:05:31,939 “And will provide for him from (a quarter) whence he hath no expectation. And whosoever putteth his trust in Allah, He will suffice him. Lo! Allah bringeth His command to pass. Allah hath set a measure for all things.” (65:3) 74 00:05:31,939 --> 00:05:37,939 “And will provide for him from (a quarter) whence he hath no expectation.

Allah hath set a measure for all things.” (65:3) 75 00:05:37,939 --> 00:05:41,939 “And will provide for him from (a quarter) whence he hath no expectation. And whosoever putteth his trust in Allah, He will suffice him. Lo! Allah bringeth His command to pass. Allah hath set a measure for all things.” (65:3) 76 00:05:41,939 --> 00:05:46,939 “And will provide for him from (a quarter) whence he hath no expectation.

Allah hath set a measure for all things.” (65:3) 77 00:05:48,699 --> 00:05:53,699 And He provides him with the means of sustenance from where he does not expect or know. 78 00:05:53,699 --> 00:05:59,699 And whoever fears Allah in his affairs and entrusts them to Him, He is sufficient for him. 79 00:05:59,699 --> 00:06:01,699 Indeed, Allah will accomplish His purpose. 80 00:06:01,699 --> 00:06:04,699 He carries out His decree among His creation. 81 00:06:04,699 --> 00:06:07,699 Indeed, Allah has brought His command to pass in every situation. 82 00:06:07,699 --> 00:06:11,699 Whether the servant relies upon Him or does not rely upon Him. 83 00:06:11,699 --> 00:06:19,699 And those who have despaired of menstruation among your women. 84 00:06:19,699 --> 00:06:28,699 If you are in doubt, their waiting period is three months. 85 00:06:28,699 --> 00:06:31,699 And those who have not menstruated. 86 00:06:31,699 --> 00:06:39,699 And those who are pregnant, their term is that they give birth to their burden. 87 00:06:39,699 --> 00:06:45,699 “And for such of your women as despair of menstruation, if ye doubt, their period (of waiting) shall be three months, along with those who have it not. And for those with child, their period shall be till they bring forth their burden. And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, He maketh his course easy for him.” (65:4) 88 00:06:45,699 --> 00:06:50,589 And the women who have lost hope of menstruation. 89 00:06:50,589 --> 00:06:54,589 And do not expect to menstruate among your women. 90 00:06:54,589 --> 00:06:58,589 If you, O men, are in doubt regarding the ruling concerning them. 91 00:06:58,589 --> 00:07:01,589 And the pregnant women when they are divorced. 92 00:07:01,589 --> 00:07:06,589 Their term for the end of their waiting period is that they give birth to their burden. 93 00:07:06,589 --> 00:07:08,589 And whoever fears Allah, so he reveres Him. 94 00:07:08,589 --> 00:07:11,589 Then he avoids His acts of disobedience and performs His obligatory duties. 95 00:07:11,589 --> 00:07:14,589 And does not oppose His permission in the divorce of his wife. 96 00:07:14,589 --> 00:07:19,589 Then Allah will make for him ease in that divorce of his. 97 00:07:19,589 --> 00:07:23,589 And that is by making it easy for him if he desires the concession. 98 00:07:23,589 --> 00:07:25,589 Due to his heart yearning for her. 99 00:07:25,589 --> 00:07:28,589 To reconcile as long as she is in her waiting period. 100 00:07:28,589 --> 00:07:32,589 And if her waiting period has ended and his heart still calls him to her. 101 00:07:32,589 --> 00:07:34,589 He is able to propose to her. 102 00:07:35,589 --> 00:07:41,649 “That is the commandment of Allah which He revealeth unto you.

And whoso keepeth his duty to Allah, He will remit from him his evil deeds and magnify reward for him.” (65:5) 104 00:07:47,649 --> 00:07:50,649 And He will magnify for him a reward. 105 00:07:50,649 --> 00:07:56,290 This which I have clarified for you regarding the ruling of divorce, reconciliation, and the waiting period. 106 00:07:56,290 --> 00:07:59,290 Is the command of Allah which He has commanded you. 107 00:07:59,290 --> 00:08:01,290 He has sent it down to you, O people. 108 00:08:01,290 --> 00:08:04,290 So that you may obey Him and act according to it. 109 00:08:04,290 --> 00:08:10,290 And whoever fears Allah, so he is mindful of Him by avoiding His acts of disobedience and performing His obligatory duties. 110 00:08:10,290 --> 00:08:14,290 Allah will remove from him his sins and the evil of his deeds. 111 00:08:14,290 --> 00:08:18,290 And He will increase for him the reward for that deed and his piety. 112 00:08:18,290 --> 00:08:21,290 And among His magnifying the reward for him. 113 00:08:21,290 --> 00:08:26,120 Is that He will admit him into His Paradise and make him abide therein forever. 114 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:45,700 And do not harm them to distress them. 115 00:08:45,700 --> 00:08:55,700 “Lodge them where ye dwell, according to your wealth, and harass them not so as to straiten life for them. And if they are with child, then spend for them till they bring forth their burden. Then, if they give suck for you, give them their due payment and consult together in kindness; but if ye make difficulties for one another, then let some other woman give suck for him (the father of the child).” (65:6) 116 00:08:55,700 --> 00:09:01,700 “Lodge them where ye dwell, according to your wealth, and harass them not so as to straiten life for them.
