The Holy Quran 65:2 — Surah At-Talaq

Arabic text

فَإِذَا بَلَغْنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَأَمْسِكُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ فَارِقُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَأَشْهِدُوا۟ ذَوَىْ عَدْلٍ مِّنكُمْ وَأَقِيمُوا۟ ٱلشَّهَـٰدَةَ لِلَّهِ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ يُوعَظُ بِهِۦ مَن كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِ ۚ وَمَن يَتَّقِ ٱللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُۥ مَخْرَجًا

Translation

So when they (divorced women) have reached close to completing their Iddah, then either keep them (as your wives) in good faith (without the intention of harming her or divorcing her again so that she has to pass another Iddah) or separate from them in good faith (without causing her any difficulty). (It is best to) Make two reliable persons witness (when you either take her back or separate from her) and (the witnesses should) establish the testimony for (the pleasure of) Allaah (without demanding payment). It is with this (advice) that the one who believes in Allaah and the Last Day is advised. Allaah shall create an escape (from difficulties) for the one who fears (disobeying) Allaah (one who has Taqwa)...

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

فإذا قاربت المطلقات نهاية عدتهن فراجعوهن مع حسن المعاشرة، والإنفاق عليهن، أو فارقوهن مع إيفاء حقهن، دون المضارَّة لهن، وأشهدوا على الرجعة أو المفارقة رجلين عدلين منكم، وأدُّوا -أيها الشهود- الشهادة خالصة لله لا لشيء آخر، ذلك الذي أمركم الله به يوعظ به مَن كان يؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر.
