227.  Wa  ‘in  azamut-talaaqa  fa-‘innAllaaha Samii-‘un  ‘Aliim.

Commentary

Yu’-luuna – (who forswear), this word has been derived from ‘iilaa which means forswear. Idiomatically its aim is to swear for living separate from the wife. It was common custom in the Arabians that whenever they used to come in rage, they forswore remaining separate from their wives.  

 Talaaq – (divorce), according to law, disconnecting the mutual relationship entirely among husband and wife is called ‘divorce’, repudiation. Different ways of divorce were customary in the world before Islam. There was no restriction or responsibility in the matter of divorce among the Jews. Whenever any individual wished, he got rid of his wife writing a divorce letter only. The wife could wed another husband at the same time. Comparing this freedom, the Christians chose very difficult way. They kept no accommodation for husband and wife to be separate, except that the wife becomes guilty of fornication. The same condition is of the Indian religion. The divorce is still unlawful for them till today. On the contrary, Islam adopted the way of temperance.

It was mode of Arabians that after forswearing, which was a kind of divorce according to them, they used to set free from paying the expenditures of their wives, performing other duties and responsibilities for them. Islam corrected this rule and explained that forswearing is not equal to breaking the marriage knot, but it is only the beginning. Islam has determined length of time for meditation, consideration and period for this long time kept four months, which is quite sufficient for this purpose that the husband may think with cool heart on all aspects and this important matter of separation from his wife.

Islam has permitted with the condition that if the husband feels faithfully that if his life partner; either doesn’t cooperate with him or doesn’t fulfill his lawful desires, then he should divorce her, despite it that they pine away their entire lives and remain displeased from each other. It is better that they should be disconnected.
