In (to) this worldly life and in the Hereafter. And they ask you
concerning orphans. Say: "The best thing is to work honestly in their
property, and if you mix your affairs with theirs, then they are your brothers.
And Allâh knows him who means mischief (e.g. to swallow their property) from
him who means good (e.g. to save their property). And if Allâh had wished, He
could have put you into difficulties. Truly, Allâh is All-Mighty,
All-Wise." (220) And do not marry Al-Mushrikât
(idolatresses, etc.) till they believe (worship Allâh Alone). And indeed a
slave woman who believes is better than a (free) Mushrikah (idolatress), even
though she pleases you. And give not (your daughters) in marriage to Al-Mushrikûn[] till they believe (in Allâh Alone) and verily, a
believing slave is better than a (free) Mushrik (idolater), even though he
pleases you. Those (Al-Mushrikûn) invite you to the Fire, but Allâh invites
(you) to Paradise and Forgiveness by His Leave, and makes His Ayât (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) clear to mankind that
they may remember. (221) They ask you concerning
menstruation. Say: that is an Adha (a harmful thing for a husband to have a sexual
intercourse with his wife while she is having her menses), therefore keep away
from women during menses and go not unto them till they are purified (from
menses and have taken a bath). And when they have purified themselves, then go
in unto them as Allâh has ordained for you (go in unto them in any manner as
long as it is in their vagina). Truly, Allâh loves those who turn unto Him in
repentance and loves those who purify themselves (by taking a bath and cleaning
and washing thoroughly their private parts, bodies, for their prayers). (222) Your
wives are a tilth for you, so go to your tilth, when or how you will, and send
(good deeds, or ask Allâh to bestow upon you pious offspring) for your
ownselves beforehand. And fear Allâh, and know that you are to meet Him (in the
Hereafter), and give good tidings to the believers (O Muhammad SAW). (223) And make not Allâh's
(Name) an excuse in your oaths against your doing good and acting piously, and
making peace among mankind. And Allâh is All-Hearer, All-Knower (i.e. do not
swear much and if you have sworn against doing something good then give an
expiation for the oath and do good).[] (224)
