[ This is
a compilation of all the verses in Qur’an that refer to "women". ]
From 002.TheCow
49. And when We delivered you from Firon's
people, who subjected you to severe torment, killing your sons and sparing your women, and in this there was a great trial
from your Lord.
221. And do not marry the idolatresses until they believe, and certainly a believing maid is
better than an idolatress woman, even though she should please you; and do not give (believing women) in marriage to idolaters
until they believe, and certainly a believing servant is better than an idolater, even though he should please you; these
invite to the fire, and Allah invites to the garden and to forgiveness by His will, and makes clear His communications to
men, that they may be mindful.
222. And they ask you about menstruation. Say: It is a discomfort; therefore keep
aloof from the women during the menstrual discharge and do not go near them until they have become clean; then when they have
cleansed themselves, go in to them as Allah has commanded you; surely Allah loves those who turn much (to Him), and He loves
those who purify themselves.
228. And the divorced women should keep themselves in waiting for three courses;
and it is not lawful for them that they should conceal what Allah has created in their wombs, if they believe in Allah and
the last day; and their husbands have a better right to take them back in the meanwhile if they wish for reconciliation; and
they have rights similar to those against them in a just manner, and the men are a degree above them, and Allah is Mighty,
Wise.
231. And when you divorce women and they reach their prescribed time, then either retain them in good fellowship
or set them free with liberality, and do not retain them for injury, so that you exceed the limits, and whoever does this,
he indeed is unjust to his own soul; and do not take Allah's communications for a mockery, and remember the favour of Allah
upon you, and that which He has revealed to you of the Book and the Wisdom, admonishing you thereby; and be careful (of your
duty to) Allah, and know that Allah is the Knower of all things.
232. And when you have divorced women and they
have ended-- their term (of waiting), then do not prevent them from marrying their husbands when they agree among themselves
in a lawful manner; with this is admonished he among you who believes in Allah and the last day, this is more profitable and
purer for you; and Allah knows while you do not know.
235. And there is no blame on you respecting that which
you speak indirectly in the asking of (such) women in marriage or keep (the proposal) concealed within your minds; Allah knows
that you win mention them, but do not give them a promise in secret unless you speak in a lawful manner, and do not confirm
the marriage tie until the writing is fulfilled, and know that Allah knows what is in your minds, therefore beware of Him,
and know that Allah is Forgiving, Forbearing.
236. There is no blame on you if you divorce women when you have
not touched them or appointed for them a portion, and make provision for them, the wealthy according to his means and the
straitened in circumstances according to his means, a provision according to usage; (this is) a duty on the doers of good
(to others).
241. And for the divorced women (too) provision (must be made) according to usage; (this is) a duty
on those who guard (against evil).
282. O you who believe! when you deal with each other in contracting a debt
for a fixed time, then write it down; and let a scribe write it down between you with fairness; and the scribe should not
refuse to write as Allah has taught him, so he should write; and let him who owes the debt dictate, and he should be careful
of (his duty to) Allah, his Lord, and not diminish anything from it; but if he who owes the debt is unsound in understanding,
or weak, or (if) he is not able to dictate himself, let his guardian dictate with fairness; and call in to witness from among
your men two witnesses; but if there are not two men, then one man and two women from among those whom you choose to be witnesses,
so that if one of the two errs, the second of the two may remind the other; and the witnesses should not refuse when they
are summoned; and be not averse to writing it (whether it is) small or large, with the time of its falling due; this is more
equitable in the sight of Allah and assures greater accuracy in testimony, and the nearest (way) that you may not entertain
doubts (afterwards), except when it is ready merchandise which you give and take among yourselves from hand to hand, then
there is no blame on you in not writing it down; and have witnesses when you barter with one another, and let no harm be done
to the scribe or to the witness; and if you do (it) then surely it will be a transgression in you, and be careful of (your
duty) to Allah, Allah teaches you, and Allah knows all things.
From 003.TheFamilyofImran:
14. The
love of desires, of women and sons and hoarded treasures of gold and silver and well bred horses and cattle and tilth, is
made to seem fair to men; this is the provision of the life of this world; and Allah is He with Whom is the good goal (of
life).
41. He said: My Lord! appoint a sign for me. Said He: Your sign is that you should not speak to men for
three days except by signs; and remember your Lord much and glorify Him in the evening and the morning. f42. And when the
angels said: O Marium! surely Allah has chosen you and purified you and chosen you above the women of the world.
61.
But whoever disputes with you in this matter after what has come to you of knowledge, then say: Come let us call our sons
and your sons and our women and your women and our near people and your near people, then let us be earnest in prayer, and
pray for the curse of Allah on the liars.
From 004.Women:
O people! be careful of (your duty to)
your Lord, Who created you from a single being and created its mate of the same (kind) and spread from these two, many men
and women; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah, by Whom you demand one of another (your rights), and (to) the ties of relationship;
surely Allah ever watches over you.
And if you fear that you cannot act equitably towards orphans, then marry
such women as seem good to you, two and three and four; but if you fear that you will not do justice (between them), then
(marry) only one or what your right hands possess; this is more proper, that you may not deviate from the right course.
And
give women their dowries as a free gift, but if they of themselves be pleased to give up to you a portion of it, then eat
it with enjoyment and with wholesome result.
Men shall have a portion of what the parents and the near relatives
leave, and women shall have a portion of what the parents and the near relatives leave, whether there is little or much of
it; a stated portion.
And as for those who are guilty of an indecency from among your women, call to witnesses
against them four (witnesses) from among you; then if they bear witness confine them to the houses until death takes them
away or Allah opens some way for them.
O you who believe! it is not lawful for you that you should take women
as heritage against (their) will, and do not straiten them m order that you may take part of what you have given them, unless
they are guilty of manifest indecency, and treat them kindly; then if you hate them, it may be that you dislike a thing while
Allah has placed abundant good in it.
And all married women except those whom your right hands possess (this
is) Allah's ordinance to you, and lawful for you are (all women) besides those, provided that you seek (them) with your property,
taking (them) in marriage not committing fornication. Then as to those whom you profit by, give them their dowries as appointed;
and there is no blame on you about what you mutually agree after what is appointed; surely Allah is Knowing, Wise.
And
whoever among you has not within his power ampleness of means to marry free believing women, then (he may marry) of those
whom your right hands possess from among your believing maidens; and Allah knows best your faith: you are (sprung) the one
from the other; so marry them with the permission of their masters, and give them their dowries justly, they being chaste,
not fornicating, nor receiving paramours; and when they are taken in marriage, then if they are guilty of indecency, they
shall suffer half the punishment which is (inflicted) upon free women. This is for him among you who fears falling into evil;
and that you abstain is better for you, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
And do not covet that by which Allah
has made some of you excel others; men shall have the benefit of what they earn and women shall have the benefit of what they
earn; and ask Allah of His grace; surely Allah knows all things.
Men are the maintainers of women because Allah
has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient,
guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them
alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.
O
you who believe! do not go near prayer when you are Intoxicated until you know (well) what you say, nor when you are under
an obligation to perform a bath-- unless (you are) travelling on the road-- until you have washed yourselves; and if you are
sick, or on a journey, or one of you come from the privy or you have touched the women, and you cannot find water, betake
yourselves to pure earth, then wipe your faces and your hands; surely Allah is Pardoning, Forgiving.
And what
reason have you that you should not fight in the way of Allah and of the weak among the men and the women and the children,
(of) those who say: Our Lord! cause us to go forth from this town, whose people are oppressors, and give us from Thee a guardian
and give us from Thee a helper.
And they ask you a decision about women. Say: Allah makes known to you His decision
concerning them, and that which is recited to you in the Book concerning female orphans whom you do not give what is appointed
for them while you desire to marry them, and concerning the weak among children, and that you should deal towards orphans
with equity; and whatever good you do, Allah surely knows it.
They ask you for a decision of the law. Say: Allah
gives you a decision concerning the person who has neither parents nor offspring; if a man dies (and) he has no son and he
has a sister, she shall have half of what he leaves, and he shall be her heir she has no son; but if there be two (sisters),
they shall have two-thirds of what he leaves; and if there are brethren, men and women, then the male shall have the like
of the portion of two females; Allah makes clear to you, lest you err; and Allah knows all things.
From
005.TheFood:
5. This day (all) the good things are allowed to you; and the food of those who have been given
the Book is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them; and the chaste from among the believing women and the chaste
from among those who have been given the Book before you (are lawful for you); when you have given them their dowries, taking
(them) in marriage, not fornicating nor taking them for paramours in secret; and whoever denies faith, his work indeed is
of no account, and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers.
6. O you who believe! when you rise up to
prayer, wash your faces and your hands as far as the elbows, and wipe your heads and your feet to the ankles; and if you are
under an obligation to perform a total ablution, then wash (yourselves) and if you are sick or on a journey, or one of you
come from the privy, or you have touched the women, and you cannot find water, betake yourselves to pure earth and wipe your
faces and your hands therewith, Allah does not desire to put on you any difficulty, but He wishes to purify you and that He
may complete His favour on you, so that you may be grateful.
From 007.TheElevatedPlaces:
127. And
the chiefs of Firon's people said: Do you leave Musa and his people to make mischief in the land and to forsake you and your
gods? He said: We will slay their sons and spare their women, and surely we are masters over them.
141. And when
We delivered you from Firon's people who subjected you to severe torment, killing your sons and sparing your women, and in
this there was a great trial from your Lord.
From 009.Repentance:
67. The hypocritical men and the
hypocritical women are all alike; they enjoin evil and forbid good and withhold their hands; they have forsaken Allah, so
He has forsaken them; surely the hypocrites are the transgressors.
68. Allah has promised the hypocritical men
and the hypocritical women and the unbelievers the fire of hell to abide therein; it is enough for them; and Allah has cursed
them and they shall have lasting punishment.
71. And (as for) the believing men and the believing women, they
are guardians of each other; they enjoin good and forbid evil and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, and obey Allah and
His Apostle; (as for) these, Allah will show mercy to them; surely Allah is Mighty, Wise.
72. Allah has promised
to the believing men and the believing women gardens, beneath which rivers flow, to abide in them, and goodly dwellings in
gardens of perpetual abode; and best of all is Allah's goodly pleasure; that is the grand achievement.
From 012.Yusuf:
28.
So when he saw his shirt rent from behind, he said: Surely it is a guile of you women; surely your guile is great:
30.
And women in the city said: The chiefs wife seeks her slave to yield himself (to her), surely he has affected her deeply with
(his) love; most surely we see her in manifest error.
50. And the king said: Bring him to me. So when the messenger
came to him, he said: Go back to your lord and ask him, what is the case of the women who cut their hands; surely my Lord
knows their guile.
From 014.Ibrahim:
6. And when Musa said to his people: Call to mind Allah's favour
to you when He delivered you from Firon's people, who subjected you to severe torment, and slew your sons and spared your
women; and in this there was a great trial from your Lord.
From 024.TheLight
4. And those who accuse
free women then do not bring four witnesses, flog them, (giving) eighty stripes, and do not admit any evidence from them ever;
and these it is that are the transgressors,
12. Why did not the believing men and the believing women, when you
heard it, think well of their own people, and say: This is an evident falsehood?
23. Surely those who accuse
chaste believing women, unaware (of the evil), are cursed in this world and the hereafter, and they shall have a grievous
chastisement.
26. Bad women are for bad men and bad men are for bad women. Good women are for good men and good
men are for good women
31. And say to the believing women that they cast down their looks and guard their private
parts and do not display their ornaments except what appears thereof, and let them wear their head-coverings over their bosoms,
and not display their ornaments except to their husbands or their fathers, or the fathers of their husbands, or their sons,
or the sons of their husbands, or their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or those
whom their right hands possess, or the male servants not having need (of women), or the children who have not attained knowledge
of what is hidden of women; and let them not strike their feet so that what they hide of their ornaments may be known; and
turn to Allah all of you, O believers! so that you may be successful.
60. And (as for) women advanced in years
who do not hope for a marriage, it is no sin for them if they put off their clothes without displaying their ornaments; and
if they restrain themselves it is better for them; and Allah is Hearing, Knowing.
From 027.TheAnt:
55.
What! do you indeed approach men lustfully rather than women? Nay, you are a people who act ignorantly.
From
028.TheNarrative:
4. Surely Firon exalted himself in the land and made its people into parties, weakening one
party from among them; he slaughtered their sons and let their women live; surely he was one of the mischief makers.
23.
And when he came to the water of Madyan, he found on it a group of men watering, and he found besides them two women keeping
back (their flocks). He said: What is the matter with you? They said: We cannot water until the shepherds take away (their
sheep) from the water, and our father is a very old man.
25. Then one of the two women came to him walking bashfully.
She said: My father invites you that he may give you the reward of your having watered for us. So when he came to him and
gave to him the account, he said: Fear not, you are secure from the unjust people.
From 003.TheAllies:
32.
O wives of the Prophet! you are not like any other of the women; If you will be on your guard, then be not soft in (your)
speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease yearn; and speak a good word.
35. Surely the men who submit and the
women who submit, and the believing men and the believing women, and the obeying men and the obeying women, and the truthful
men and the truthful women, and the patient men and the patient women and the humble men and the humble women, and the almsgiving
men and the almsgiving women, and the fasting men and the fasting women, and the men who guard their private parts and the
women who guard, and the men who remember Allah much and the women who remember-- Allah has prepared for them forgiveness
and a mighty reward.
49. O you who believe! when you marry the believing women, then divorce them before you
touch them, you have in their case no term which you should reckon; so make some provision for them and send them forth a
goodly sending forth.
52. It is not allowed to you to take women afterwards, nor that you should change them
for other wives, though their beauty be pleasing to you, except what your right hand possesses and Allah is Watchful over
all things.
55. There is no blame on them in respect of their fathers, nor their brothers, nor their brothers'
sons, nor their sisters' sons nor their own women, nor of what their right hands possess; and be careful of (your duty to)
Allah; surely Allah is a witness of all things.
58. And those who speak evil things of the believing men and
the believing women without their having earned (it), they are guilty indeed of a false accusation and a manifest sin.
59.
O Prophet! say to your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers that they let down upon them their over-garments;
this will be more proper, that they may be known, and thus they will not be given trouble; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
73.
So Allah will chastise the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women and the polytheistic men and the polytheistic women,
and Allah will turn (mercifully) to the believing women, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
From 040.TheBeliever:
25.
So when he brought to them the truth from Us, they said: Slay the sons of those who believe with him and keep their women
alive; and the struggle of the unbelievers will only come to a state of perdition.
From 047.Muhammad:
19.
So know that there is no god but Allah, and, ask protection for your fault and for the believing men and the believing women;
and Allah knows the place of your returning and the place of your abiding.
From 048.TheVictory:
5.
That He may cause the believing men and the believing women to enter gardens beneath which rivers flow to abide therein and
remove from them their evil; and that is a grand achievement with Allah
6. And (that) He may punish the hypocritical
men and the hypocritical women, and the polytheistic men and the polytheistic women, the entertainers of evil thoughts about
Allah. On them is the evil turn, and Allah is wroth with them and has cursed them and prepared hell for them, and evil is
the resort.
25. It is they who disbelieved and turned you away from the Sacred Mosque and (turned off) the offering
withheld from arriving at its destined place; and were it not for the believing men and the believing women, whom, not having
known, you might have trodden down, and thus something hateful might have afflicted you on their account without knowledge--
so that Allah may cause to enter into His mercy whomsoever He pleases; had they been widely separated one from another, We
would surely have punished those who disbelieved from among them with a painful punishment.
From 057.TheIron:
12.
On that day you will see the faithful men and the faithful women-- their light running before them and on their right hand--
good news for you today: gardens beneath which rivers flow, to abide therein, that is the grand achievement.
13.
On the day when the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women will say to those who believe: Wait for us, that we may have
light from your light; it shall be said: Turn back and seek a light. Then separation would be brought about between them,
with a wall having a door in it; (as for) the inside of it, there shall be mercy in it, and (as for) the outside of it, before
it there shall be punishment.
18. Surely (as for) the charitable men and the charitable women and (those who)
set apart for Allah a goodly portion, it shall be doubled for them and they shall have a noble reward.
From 060.TheExaminedOne:
10.
O you who believe! when believing women come to you flying, then examine them; Allah knows best their faith; then if you find
them to be believing women, do not send them back to the unbelievers, neither are these (women) lawful for them, nor are those
(men) lawful for them, and give them what they have spent; and no blame attaches to you in marrying them when you give them
their dowries; and hold not to the ties of marriage of unbelieving women, and ask for what you have spent, and kt them ask
for what they have spent. That is Allah's judgment; He judges between you, and Allah is Knowing, Wise.
12. O
Prophet! when believing women come to you giving you a pledge that they will not associate aught with Allah, and will not
steal, and will not commit fornication, and will not kill their children, and will not bring a calumny which they have forged
of themselves, and will not disobey you in what is good, accept their pledge, and ask forgiveness for them from Allah; surely
Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
From 065.TheDivorce:
O Prophet! when you divorce women, divorce them
for~ their prescribed time, and calculate the number of the days prescribed, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah, your
Lord. Do not drive them out of their houses, nor should they themselves go forth, unless they commit an open indecency; and
these are the limits of Allah, and whoever goes beyond the limits of Allah, he indeed does injustice to his own soul. You
do not know that Allah may after that bring about reunion.
And (as for) those of your women who have despaired
of menstruation, if you have a doubt, their prescribed time shall be three months, and of those too who have not had their
courses; and (as for) the pregnant women, their prescribed time is that they lay down their burden; and whoever is careful
of (his duty to) Allah He will make easy for him his affair. From 071.Nuh:
28. My Lord! forgive me and
my parents and him who enters my house believing, and the believing men and the believing women; and do not increase the unjust
in aught but destruction!
From 085.TheMansionsOfTheStars:
10. Surely (as for) those who persecute
the believing men and the believing women, then do not repent, they shall have the chastisement of hell, and they shall have
the chastisement of burning.
