Yusuf Ali
But those who divorce their wives by Zihar, then wish to go back on the words they uttered,- (It is ordained that such a one) should free a slave before they touch each other: Thus are ye admonished to perform: and Allah is well-acquainted with (all) that ye do.
Sahih International
And those who pronounce thihar from their wives and then [wish to] go back on what they said - then [there must be] the freeing of a slave before they touch one another. That is what you are admonished thereby; and Allah is Acquainted with what you do.
Shakir
And (as for) those who put away their wives by likening their backs to the backs of their mothers then would recall what they said, they should free a captive before they touch each other; to that you are admonished (to conform); and Allah is Aware of what you do.
Pickthall
Those who put away their wives (by saying they are as their mothers) and afterward would go back on that which they have said, (the penalty) in that case (is) the freeing of a slave before they touch one another. Unto this ye are exhorted; and Allah is Informed of what ye do.
محمد جالندھری
اور جو لوگ اپنی بیویوں کو ماں کہہ بیٹھیں پھر اپنے قول سے رجوع کرلیں تو (ان کو) ہم بستر ہونے سے پہلے ایک غلام آزاد کرنا (ضروری) ہے۔ (مومنو) اس (حکم) سے تم کو نصیحت کی جاتی ہے۔ اور جو کچھ تم کرتے ہو خدا اس سے خبردار ہے
