An Nisa’ Ayah 25

وَمَن لَّمْ يَسْتَطِعْ مِنكُمْ طَوْلاً أَن يَنكِحَ ٱلْمُحْصَنَـٰتِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ فَمِن مَّا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَـٰنُكُم مِّن فَتَيَـٰتِكُمُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنَـٰتِ‌ۚ وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِإِيمَـٰنِكُم‌ۚ بَعْضُكُم مِّنۢ بَعْضٍ‌ۚ فَٱنكِحُوهُنَّ بِإِذْنِ أَهْلِهِنَّ وَءَاتُوهُنَّ أُجُورَهُنَّ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ مُحْصَنَـٰتٍ غَيْرَ مُسَـٰفِحَـٰتٍ وَلَا مُتَّخِذَٲتِ أَخْدَانٍ‌ۚ فَإِذَآ أُحْصِنَّ فَإِنْ أَتَيْنَ بِفَـٰحِشَةٍ فَعَلَيْهِنَّ نِصْفُ مَا عَلَى ٱلْمُحْصَنَـٰتِ مِنَ ٱلْعَذَابِ‌ۚ ذَٲلِكَ لِمَنْ خَشِىَ ٱلْعَنَتَ مِنكُمْ‌ۚ وَأَن تَصْبِرُواْ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ‌ۗ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ ٢٥ But if any of you cannot afford to marry a free believing woman, then ?let him marry? a believing bondwoman possessed by one of you. Allah knows best ?the state of? your faith ?and theirs?. You are from one another. So marry them with the permission of their owners, giving them their dowry in fairness, if they are chaste, neither promiscuous nor having secret affairs. If they commit indecency after marriage, they receive half the punishment of free women. This is for those of you who fear falling into sin. But if you are patient, it is better for you. And Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
