⦿
Ye will not be able to deal equally between (your) wives, however much ye wish (to do so). But turn not altogether away (from one), leaving her as in suspense. If ye do good and keep from evil, lo! Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful. - Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
You will not be able to be fair between wives, even if you are eager to do so. Yet do not turn away from one altogether, leaving her as if in a suspense. But if you are conciliatory and Godwary, Allah is indeed all-forgiving, all-merciful. - Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
You will never be able to maintain justice among your wives and love them all equally, no matter how hard you try. Do not give total preference to one of them, leaving the other as if in suspense. If you do bring about reconciliation and maintain piety, God is All-forgiving and All-merciful. - Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
And you have it not in your power to do justice between wives, even though you may wish (it), but be not disinclined (from one) with total disinclination, so that you leave her as it were in suspense; and if you effect a reconciliation and guard (against evil), then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. - Shakir, Habib
⦿
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]. And if you make amends and act righteously, surely God is most forgiving and merciful. - Wahiduddin Khan
⦿
اور تم کتنا ہی کیوں نہ چاہو عورتوں کے درمیان مکمل انصاف نہیں کرسکتے ہو لیکن اب بالکل ایک طرف نہ جھک جاؤ کہ دوسری کو معلق چھوڑ دو اور اگر اصلاح کرلو اور تقویٰ اختیار کرو تو اللہ بہت بخشنے والا اور مہربان ہے - Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
بیویوں کے درمیان پورا پورا عدل کرنا تمہارے بس میں نہیں ہے تم چاہو بھی تو اس پر قادر نہیں ہوسکتے لہٰذا (قانون الٰہی کا منشا پورا کرنے کے لیے یہ کافی ہے کہ) ایک بیوی کی طرف اِس طرح نہ جھک جاؤ کہ دوسری کو ادھر لٹکتا چھوڑ دو اگر تم اپنا طرز عمل درست رکھو اور اللہ سے ڈرتے رہو تو اللہ چشم پوشی کرنے والا اور رحم فرمانے والا ہے - Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
اور تم سے ہرگز نہ ہوسکے گا کہ عورتوں کو برابر رکھو اور چاہے کتنی ہی حرص کرو تو یہ تو نہ ہو کہ ایک طرف پورا جھک جاؤ کہ دوسری کو ادھر میں لٹکتی چھوڑ دو اور اگر تم نیکی اور پرہیزگاری کرو تو بیشک اللہ بخشنے والا مہربان ہے، - Ahmed Raza
⦿
یہ ٹھیک ہے کہ تم جس قدر چاہو مگر بیویوں میں پورا پورا عدل نہیں کر سکتے۔ مگر بالکل تو ایک طرف نہ جھک جاؤ۔ کہ (دوسری کو) بیچوں بیچ لٹکا چھوڑ دو۔ اور اگر تم اپنی اصلاح کر لو۔ اور تقویٰ اختیار کرو۔ تو خدا بڑا بخشنے والا، بڑا مہربان ہے۔ - Najafi, Muhammad
