Si una mujer teme de su marido maltrato o rechazo, no incurrirán en falta si ambos llegan a un acuerdo, pues un acuerdo [justo] es lo mejor. El alma es propensa a la avaricia, pero si hacéis el bien y tenéis temor de Dios, sabed que Dios sabe bien cuanto hacéis.

No podréis ser [completamente] equitativos con vuestras esposas por mucho que lo intentéis. Pero no por eso vulneréis los derechos [de una de ellas] dejándola como abandonada. Si os rectificáis y tenéis temor de Dios, Dios es Perdonador, Misericordioso.
