Consort with them in an honourable manner; and should you dislike them, maybe you dislike something while Allah invests it with an abundant good | |

But consort with them in kindness, for if ye hate them it may happen that ye hate a thing wherein Allah hath placed much good | Ye are forbidden to inherit women against their will |
It is not lawful for you to inherit women forcibly, and do not press them to take away part of what you have given them, unless they commit a gross indecency.
Nor should ye treat them with harshness, that ye may Take away part of the dower ye have given them,-except where they have been guilty of open lewdness; on the contrary live with them on a footing of kindness and equity | |
