Surah
‘Al-Baqarah (The Cow) – Chapter – 2)
‘A-‘uu-zu Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
وَإِن طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ مِن قَبْلِ أَن تَمَسُّوهُنَّ وَقَدْ فَرَضْتُمْ لَهُنَّ فَرِيضَةً فَنِصْفُ مَا فَرَضْتُمْ إِلَّآ أَن يَعْفُونَ أَوْيَعْفُوَا۟ ٱلَّذِى بِيَدِهِۦ عُقْدَةُ ٱلنِّكَاحِ وَأَن تَعْفُوٓا۟ أَقْرَبُ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ وَلَا تَنسَوُا۟ ٱلْفَضْلَ بَيْنَكُمْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ 237
237. If ye divorce them before ye have
touched them and ye have appointed unto them a portion, then (pay the) half
of that which ye appointed, unless they (the women) agree to forgo it, or he
agreeth to forgo it in whose hand is the marriage tie. To forgo is nearer to
piety. And forget not kindness among yourselves. Surely Allah is Seer of what
ye do.

Commentary
Some more commandments
regarding the divorced woman and payment of her appointed portion have been
mentioned in this verse. If the portion (maher) was appointed at the
time of marriage tie, and the time of divorce comes before touching the wife,
then half of the appointed portion will be paid compulsorily. But the woman
herself or the person; in whose hand is the marriage tie, if they excuse entire
portion or some part of it, then it is another matter.
After that, it has
been described also that if the husband overlooks then it is more reasonable
close to piety, because God Almighty bestowed him greatness and authorized him
for keeping the marriage tie or to divorce her wife. If the husband doesn’t pay
even half of the portion now, and divorces without touching her, then it is not
reasonable near God fearing. Any kind of failure didn’t exist from the side of
his wife. As though, these became four forms of divorce and portion:
- Neither the portion is appointed, nor did
husband touch his wife. In this form, he should pay some reasonable sum to
his wife.
- The portion was appointed but he did not
touch her. Now half of the appointed portion will be paid by him.
- The Portion was appointed and he
committed also a sexual intercourse. Then he will pay complete appointed
portion.
- The Portion was not appointed but he performed
intercourse. In this case, he would have to pay the similar portion (Maher
Misl).
