portions; but if they of their own accord remit unto you a part
thereof, then ye are welcome to absorb it (in your wealth).
S: And give women their dowries as a free gift, but if they of
themselves be pleased to give up to you a portion of it, then eat it
with enjoyment and with wholesome result.

Y: To those weak of understanding Make not over your property, which
Allah hath made a means of support for you, but feed and clothe them
therewith, and speak to them words of kindness and justice.

wealth, which Allah hath given you to maintain; but feed and clothe
them from it, and speak kindly unto them.

Y: Make trial of orphans until they reach the age of marriage; if then
ye find sound judgment in them, release their property to them; but
consume it not wastefully, nor in haste against their growing up. If
the guardian is well-off, Let him claim no remuneration, but if he is
poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable. When ye
release their property to them, take witnesses in their presence: But
all-sufficient is Allah in taking account.
P: Prove orphans till they reach the marriageable age; then, if ye find
them of sound judgment, deliver over unto them their fortune; and
devour it not by squandering and in haste lest they should grow up
Whoso (of the guardians) is rich, let him abstain generously (from

not consume it extravagantly and hastily, lest they attain to full age;
and whoever is rich, let him abstain altogether, and whoever is poor,
let him eat reasonably; then when you make over to them their property,
call witnesses in their presence; and Allah is enough as a Reckoner.
