سورة النساء، الآية ٢٠Surah An-Nisa, ayah 20 (4:20)
وَإِنۡ أَرَدتُّمُ ٱسۡتِبۡدَالَ زَوۡجٍ مَّكَانَ زَوۡجٍ وَءَاتَيۡتُمۡ إِحۡدَىٰهُنَّ قِنطَارًا فَلَا تَأۡخُذُواْ مِنۡهُ شَيۡـًٔا أَتَأۡخُذُونَهُۥ بُهۡتَٰنًا وَإِثۡمًا مُّبِينًا ٢٠
The meaning in English
But if you intend to replace a wife by another and you have given one of them a Qintâr (of gold i.e. a great amount as Mahr) take not the least bit of it back; would you take it wrongfully without a right and (with) a manifest sin?
Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali and Muhammad Muhsin Khan, King Fahd Complex
التفسير الميسر
وإن أردتم استبدال زوجة مكان أخرى، وكنتم قد أعطيتم مَن تريدون طلاقها مالا كثيرًا مهرًا لها، فلا يحل لكم أن تأخذوا منه شيئًا، أتأخذونه كذبًا وافتراءً واضحًا؟
