Ayah: 51

۞ تُرۡجِي مَن تَشَآءُ مِنۡهُنَّ وَتُـٔۡوِيٓ إِلَيۡكَ مَن تَشَآءُۖ وَمَنِ ٱبۡتَغَيۡتَ مِمَّنۡ عَزَلۡتَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡكَۚ ذَٰلِكَ أَدۡنَىٰٓ أَن تَقَرَّ أَعۡيُنُهُنَّ وَلَا يَحۡزَنَّ وَيَرۡضَيۡنَ بِمَآ ءَاتَيۡتَهُنَّ كُلُّهُنَّۚ وَٱللَّهُ يَعۡلَمُ مَا فِي قُلُوبِكُمۡۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَلِيمٗا

51. You may postpone 'the turn of' whom you will of them 'your wives', and you may receive whom you will, and whom you desire of those whom you have set aside 'her turn temporarily'; no blame is on you 'to receive her again'. This is most proper, so that they may be comforted and not grieve, and that all of them should be pleased with what you give them. Allāh knows what is in your hearts. For Allāh is All-Knowing, Most Forbearing.
