Translation by Mir Aneesuddin — Permalink

Verse 1 — Surah At-Talaq 65:1

O prophet! when you divorce women then divorce them for their prescribed term and calculate the prescribed term and fear God your Lord. Do not drive them out from their houses nor should they themselves go out, unless they commit an open indecency. And those are the limits of God and whoever transgresses the limits of God, he has indeed been unjust to his own soul, you do not know, perhaps God may bring about an event (of reunion) after that

Verse 2 — Surah At-Talaq 65:2

So when they reach (the end of) their term, then either hold them in a recognised (good manner) or separate them in a recognised (good manner). And call to witness two just men from among you and establish (correct) evidence for (the sake of) God. With that is advised he who believes in God and the period hereafter, and whoever fears God He will make for him a way out

Verse 3 — Surah At-Talaq 65:3

and He will provide him from a place unthought of. And whoever puts his trust in God, then He is sufficient for him. God certainly fulfils His command, God has indeed made a programme for everything

Verse 4 — Surah At-Talaq 65:4

And for those of your women who have passed the age of menstruation, if you have a doubt, then their prescribed term is three months, and for those (too) who have not (yet started to) menstruate. And for the pregnant women, their prescribed term is till they lay down their burden. And whoever fears God, He makes his affair easy for him

Verse 5 — Surah At-Talaq 65:5

That is the commandment of God, He has sent it down to you. And whoever fears God, He will remove from him his evil deeds and enlarge for him the reward

Verse 6 — Surah At-Talaq 65:6

Make the (divorced) women dwell (during the prescribed term) where you dwell, according to your means, and do not harm them so as to cause distress to them. And if they are pregnant then spend on them till they lay down their burden, then if they suckle (the child) for you then give them their due payment and consult among yourselves in a recognised (good manner) and if you face some difficulty, then let another (woman) suckle (the child) for him (the responsibility of payment being on the father)

Verse 7 — Surah At-Talaq 65:7

Let him who has abundance spend out of his abundance, and one who has his provision straitened on him, let him spend from that which God has given to him. God does not task a soul but (to the extent of) that which He has given it. God will make (things) easy after difficulty

Verse 8 — Surah At-Talaq 65:8

And how many a town revolted against the commandment of its Lord and His messengers, so We called it to account (that too) a severe account and We punished it (with) a severe punishment

Verse 9 — Surah At-Talaq 65:9

So it tasted the evil result of its affair and at the end of its affair, there was loss

Verse 10 — Surah At-Talaq 65:10

God has prepared a severe punishment for them, so fear God, O men of understanding who believe ! God has sent down to you a reminder

Verse 11 — Surah At-Talaq 65:11

(through) a messenger who recites to you clear signs of God, so as to bring out those who believe and do righteous works, from darkness towards light. And whoever believes in God and does righteous work, He will make him enter gardens beneath which rivers flow, to stay therein for ever. God has made a better provision for him

Verse 12 — Surah At-Talaq 65:12

God is He Who created the seven skies (seven higher levels), and of the earth (seven lower levels) similar to those (of the skies) . The commandment (of God) comes down among them that you may know that God has power over everything and that God has encompassed everything in (His) knowledge
