35. Lo! men who surrender unto Allah, and women who surrender, and men who believe and
women who believe, and men who obey and women who obey, and men who speak the truth and
women who speak the truth, and men who persevere (in righteousness) and women who persevere,
and men who are humble and women who are humble, and men who give alms and women who give
alms, and men who fast and women who fast, and men who guard their modesty and women who
guard (their modesty), and men who remember Allah much and women who remember Allah hath
prepared for them forgiveness and a vast reward.
Yusuf Ali
35. For Muslim men and women for believing men and women for devout men and women for true
men and women for men and women who are patient and constant for men and women who humble
themselves for men and women who give in charity for men and women who fast (and deny
themselves) for men and women who guard their chastity and for men and women who engage
much in Allah's praise for them has Allah prepared forgiveness and great reward.
M.Pickthall
36. And it becometh not a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His messenger
have decided and affair (for them), that they should (after that) claim any say in their
affair; and whoso is rebellious to Allah and His messenger, be verily goeth astray in error
manifest.
Yusuf Ali
36. It is not fitting for a Believer man or woman when a matter has been decided by Allah
and His Apostle to have any option about their decision: if anyone disobeys Allah and His
Apostle he is indeed on a clearly wrong Path.
M.Pickthall
37. And when thou saidst unto him on whom Allah hath conferred favor and thou hast conferred
favor: Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah. And thou didst hide in thy mind that which
Allah was to bring to light, and thou didst fear mankind whereas Allah had a better right that
thou shouldst fear Him. So when Zeyd had performed the necessary formality (of divorce) from
her, We gave her unto thee in marriage, so that (henceforth) there may be no sin for believers
in respect of wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have performed the necessary
formality (of release) from them. The commandment of Allah must be fulfilled.
Yusuf Ali
37. Behold! thou didst say to one who had received the grace of Allah and thy favor: "Retain
thou (in wedlock) thy wife and fear Allah." But thou didst hide in thy heart that which Allah
was about to make manifest: thou didst fear the people but it is more fitting that thou shouldst
fear Allah. Then when Zaid had dissolved (his marriage) with her with the necessary (formality)
We joined her in marriage to thee: in order that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the
Believers in (the matter of) marriage with the wives of their adopted sons when the latter
have dissolved with the necessary (formality) (their marriage) with them: and Allah's command
must be fulfilled.
