It is not for a believing man or woman—when Allah and His Messenger decree a matter—to have any other choice in that matter.¹ Indeed, whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has clearly gone ˹far˺ astray.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

And ˹remember, O  Prophet,˺ when you said to the one¹ for whom Allah has done a favour and you ˹too˺ have done a favour,² “Keep your wife and fear Allah,” while concealing within yourself what Allah was going to reveal. And ˹so˺ you were considering the people, whereas Allah was more worthy of your consideration. So when Zaid totally lost interest in ˹keeping˺ his wife, We gave her to you in marriage, so that there would be no blame on the believers for marrying the ex-wives of their adopted sons after their divorce. And Allah’s command is totally binding.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

And [remember, O Muḥammad], when you said to the one on whom Allah bestowed favor and you bestowed favor,¹ "Keep your wife and fear Allah," while you concealed within yourself that which Allah is to disclose.² And you feared the people,³ while Allah has more right that you fear Him.⁴ So when Zayd had no longer any need for her, We married her to you in order that there not be upon the believers any discomfort [i.e., guilt] concerning the wives of their claimed [i.e., adopted] sons when they no longer have need of them. And ever is the command [i.e., decree] of Allah accomplished.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
