2.231

وَ اِذَا طَلَّقْتُمُ النِّسَآءَ فَبَلَغْنَ اَجَلَهُنَّ فَاَمْسِكُوْهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوْفٍ اَوْ سَرِّحُوْهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوْفٍ ۪-وَّ لَا تُمْسِكُوْهُنَّ ضِرَارًا لِّتَعْتَدُوْاۚ-وَ مَنْ یَّفْعَلْ ذٰلِكَ فَقَدْ ظَلَمَ نَفْسَهٗؕ-وَ لَا تَتَّخِذُوْۤا اٰیٰتِ اللّٰهِ هُزُوًا٘-وَّ اذْكُرُوْا نِعْمَتَ اللّٰهِ عَلَیْكُمْ وَ مَاۤ اَنْزَلَ عَلَیْكُمْ مِّنَ الْكِتٰبِ وَ الْحِكْمَةِ یَعِظُكُمْ بِهٖؕ-وَ اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَ اعْلَمُوْۤا اَنَّ اللّٰهَ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عَلِیْمٌ۠ٝ (231)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

When you divorce women and they near ˹the end of˺ their prescribed time ˹of ʿiddah˺, take them back with decency or release them with courtesy; and do not retain them to cause distress ˹so˺ that you may oppress them;[1] Whosoever does this oppresses himself. And do not take the verses of Allah in mockery; and remember the favour of Allah upon you and ˹remember˺ the Book and Wisdom He revealed to you through which He gives you sincere advice. And fear Allah and know that Allah is the Knower of all things.

Commentary

[1]

The divorced woman has the option of reunion or separation before her sitting period ends. However, for a man, it is not permissible to use this right to oppress her; whosoever does this oppresses himself, and it is as if he is mocking the verses of Allah. People who oppress wives and oppose the Shari‘ah should remember that even if people are unaware, Allah Almighty certainly knows the truth; Man will indeed answer to Allah Almighty.
