An-Nisa 4:128 وان امراة خافت من بعلها نشوزا او اعراضا فلا جناح عليهما ان يصلحا بينهما صلحا والصلح خير واحضرت الانفس الشح وان تحسنوا وتتقوا فان الله كان بما تعملون خبيرا ١٢٨

4:128
وَإِنِ
ٱمۡرَأَةٌ
خَافَتۡ
مِنۢ
بَعۡلِهَا
نُشُوزًا
أَوۡ
إِعۡرَاضٗا
فَلَا
جُنَاحَ
عَلَيۡهِمَآ
أَن
يُصۡلِحَا
بَيۡنَهُمَا
صُلۡحٗاۚ
وَٱلصُّلۡحُ
خَيۡرٞۗ
وَأُحۡضِرَتِ
ٱلۡأَنفُسُ
ٱلشُّحَّۚ
وَإِن
تُحۡسِنُواْ
وَتَتَّقُواْ
فَإِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
كَانَ
بِمَا
تَعۡمَلُونَ
خَبِيرٗا
١٢٨
If a wife fears high-handedness or alienation from her husband, neither of them will be blamed if they come to a peaceful settlement, for peace is best. Although human souls are prone to selfishness, if you do good and are mindful of God, He is well aware of all that you do.

Chapter 4, Page 99, Juz 5

127. They ask you [Prophet] for a ruling about women. Say, ‘God Himself gives you a ruling about them. You already have what has been recited to you in the Scripture about orphan girls [in your charge] from whom you withhold the prescribed shares [of their inheritance] and whom you wish to marry, and also about helpless children- God instructs you to treat orphans fairly: He is well aware of whatever good you do.’ 128. If a wife fears high-handedness or alienation from her husband, neither of them will be blamed if they come to a peaceful settlement, for peace is best. Although human souls are prone to selfishness, if you do good and are mindful of God, He is well aware of all that you do. 129. You will never be able to treat your wives with equal fairness, however much you may desire to do so, but do not ignore one wife altogether, leaving her suspended [between marriage and divorce]. If you make amends and remain conscious of God, He is most forgiving and merciful, 130. but if husband and wife do separate, God will provide for each out of His plenty: He is infinite in plenty, and all wise.

- M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
