And divorced women shall wait by themselves three menstrual courses; and it is not lawful for them to conceal what God has created in their wombs, if they believe in God and the Last Day. And their husbands are worthier to take them back during that if they desire right ordering. And due to women is the like of what is due from them, according to what is fitting, but men have a degree over them. And God is exalted in might and wise.

Divorce is twice. Then retaining according to what is fitting, or releasing with good conduct. And it is not lawful for you to take of what you have given women unless they fear that they cannot uphold the limits of God. Then if you fear that they cannot uphold the limits of God, they do no wrong concerning that whereby she ransoms herself. Those are the limits of God, so transgress them not. And whoso transgresses the limits of God, it is they who are the wrongdoers.
