Al-Baqarah 2:229 الطلاق مرتان فامساك بمعروف او تسريح باحسان ولا يحل لكم ان تاخذوا مما اتيتموهن شييا الا ان يخافا الا يقيما حدود الله فان خفتم الا يقيما حدود الله فلا جناح عليهما فيما افتدت به تلك حدود الله فلا تعتدوها ومن يتعد حدود الله فاولايك هم الظالمون ٢٢٩

ٱلطَّلَٰقُ
مَرَّتَانِۖ
فَإِمۡسَاكُۢ
بِمَعۡرُوفٍ
أَوۡ
تَسۡرِيحُۢ
بِإِحۡسَٰنٖۗ
وَلَا
يَحِلُّ
لَكُمۡ
أَن
تَأۡخُذُواْ
مِمَّآ
ءَاتَيۡتُمُوهُنَّ
شَيۡـًٔا

أَن
يَخَافَآ

فَلَا
جُنَاحَ
عَلَيۡهِمَا
فِيمَا
ٱفۡتَدَتۡ
بِهِۦۗ
تِلۡكَ
حُدُودُ
ٱللَّهِ

And it is not lawful for you that ye take from women aught of that which ye have given them; except (in the case) when both fear that they may not be able to keep within the limits (imposed by) Allah. And if ye fear that they may not be able to keep the limits of Allah, in that case it is no sin for either of them if the woman ransom herself. These are the limits (imposed by) Allah. Transgress them not. For whoso transgresseth Allah's limits: such are wrong-doers.

229. Divorce must be pronounced twice and then (a woman) must be retained in honour or released in kindness. And it is not lawful for you that ye take from women aught of that which ye have given them; except (in the case) when both fear that they may not be able to keep within the limits (imposed by) Allah. And if ye fear that they may not be able to keep the limits of Allah, in that case it is no sin for either of them if the woman ransom herself. These are the limits (imposed by) Allah. Transgress them not. For whoso transgresseth Allah's limits: such are wrong-doers. 230. And if he hath divorced her (the third time), then she is not lawful unto him thereafter until she hath wedded another husband. Then if he (the other husband) divorce her it is no sin for both of them that they come together again if they consider that they are able to observe the limits of Allah. These are the limits of Allah. He manifesteth them for people who have knowledge.
