وَإِنْ أَرَدتُّمُ ٱسْتِبْدَالَ زَوْجٍۢ مَّكَانَ زَوْجٍۢ وَءَاتَيْتُمْ إِحْدَىٰهُنَّ قِنطَارًۭا فَلَا تَأْخُذُوا۟ مِنْهُ شَيْـًٔا ۚ أَتَأْخُذُونَهُۥ بُهْتَٰنًۭا وَإِثْمًۭا مُّبِينًۭا ﴿20﴾

Wa in arattumustib daala zawjim makaana zawjin wa aataitum ihdaahunna qintaaran falaa taakhuzoo minhu shai'aa; ataakhuzoonahoo buhtaannanw wa ismam mubeenaa

4:20. But if you want to replace one wife with another and you have given one of them a great amount [in gifts], do not take [back] from it anything. Would you take it in injustice and manifest sin?

اور اگر تم ایک عورت کو چھوڑ کر دوسری عورت کرنی چاہو۔ اور پہلی عورت کو بہت سال مال دے چکے ہو تو اس میں سے کچھ مت لینا۔ بھلا تم ناجائز طور پر اور صریح ظلم سے اپنا مال اس سے واپس لے لوگے؟
