And when ye have divorced your women , and they have attained their period , then either retain them reputably or let them off kindly ; and retain them not to their hurt that ye may trespass ; and whosoever doth this assuredly wrongeth his soul . And hold not Allah 's commandments in mockery and remember Allah 's favour upon you , and that he hath sent down unto you the Book and the wisdom wherewith He exhorted you ; and fear Allah , and know that verily Allah is of everything the Knower
