237 And if you divorce them before you have touched them and you have appointed for them a portion, then (pay to them) ha!f of what you have appointed, unless they relinquish or he should relinquish in whose hand is the marriage tie; and it is nearer to righteousness that you should relinquish; and do not neglect the giving of free gifts between you; surely Allah sees what you do.
237 Na mkiwapa t'alaka kabla ya kuwagusa, na mmekwisha wawekea hayo mahari makhsusi, basi wapeni nusu ya mahari mlio agana, isipo kuwa ikiwa wanawake wenyewe wamesamehe, au mume ambaye kifungo cha ndoa ki mikononi mwake awe amesamehe. Na kusameheana ndiko kulio karibu zaidi na uchamngu. Wala msisahau fadhila baina yenu. Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu anayaona mnayo yatenda.
