If any of you have not the means wherewith to wed free believing women , they may wed believing girls from among those whom your right hands possess : And Allah hath full knowledge about your faith . Ye are one from another : Wed them with the leave of their owners , and give them their dowers , according to what is reasonable : They should be chaste , not lustful , nor taking paramours : when they are taken in wedlock , if they fall into shame , their punishment is half that for free women .
