127. They ask thy instruction concerning the women say: God doth instruct you about
them: And (remember) what hath been rehearsed unto you in the Book, concerning the
orphans of women to whom ye give not the portions prescribed, and yet whom ye des ire
to marry, as also concerning the children who are weak and oppressed: that ye stand firm
for justice to orphans. There is not a good deed which ye do, but God is well-acquainted
therewith.

128. If a wife fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part, there is no blame on them
if they arrange an amicable settlement between themselves; and such settlement is best;
even though men's souls are swayed by greed. But if ye do good and pr actise self-
restraint, God is well-acquainted with all that ye do.
