وَمَآ أُرۡسِلُواْ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَٰفِظِينَ

سَنَدۡعُ ٱلزَّبَانِيَةَ

18. We shall just call our guards [17].

Surah Name : Al-Alaq   Surah Number : 96   Ayat Number: 18

Ayah 34

ٱلرِّجَالُ قَوَّـٰمُونَ عَلَى ٱلنِّسَآءِ بِمَا فَضَّلَ ٱللَّهُ بَعۡضَهُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضٖ وَبِمَآ أَنفَقُواْ مِنۡ أَمۡوَٰلِهِمۡۚ فَٱلصَّـٰلِحَٰتُ قَٰنِتَٰتٌ حَٰفِظَٰتٞ لِّلۡغَيۡبِ بِمَا حَفِظَ ٱللَّهُۚ وَٱلَّـٰتِي تَخَافُونَ نُشُوزَهُنَّ فَعِظُوهُنَّ وَٱهۡجُرُوهُنَّ فِي ٱلۡمَضَاجِعِ وَٱضۡرِبُوهُنَّۖ فَإِنۡ أَطَعۡنَكُمۡ فَلَا تَبۡغُواْ عَلَيۡهِنَّ سَبِيلًاۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيّٗا كَبِيرٗا

34. Men are in charge [131] of women because Allah has made one excel over the other [132] and because they spend from their wealth [133]. Therefore, the righteous women are devoutly obedient and guard, in the husband's absence, what Allah commands them to guard [134]. As for those (wives) from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them [135], leave them alone in their beds [136], and (as a last resort) strike them lightly [137]. But if they return to obedience, do not seek a means against them. Surely, Allah is Most High, Most Great [138].

Surah Name : An-Nisa   Surah Number : 4   Ayat Number: 34

Ayah 64

قَالَ هَلۡ ءَامَنُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ إِلَّا كَمَآ أَمِنتُكُمۡ عَلَىٰٓ أَخِيهِ مِن قَبۡلُ فَٱللَّهُ خَيۡرٌ حَٰفِظٗاۖ وَهُوَ أَرۡحَمُ ٱلرَّـٰحِمِينَ

64. He said, "May I trust you about him in the way I trusted you before about his brother [134]? Then Allah is the best Guard; He is the Most Merciful of the merciful [135]."

Surah Name : Yusuf   Surah Number : 12   Ayat Number: 64

Ayah 65

وَلَمَّا فَتَحُواْ مَتَٰعَهُمۡ وَجَدُواْ بِضَٰعَتَهُمۡ رُدَّتۡ إِلَيۡهِمۡۖ قَالُواْ يَـٰٓأَبَانَا مَا نَبۡغِيۖ هَٰذِهِۦ بِضَٰعَتُنَا رُدَّتۡ إِلَيۡنَاۖ وَنَمِيرُ أَهۡلَنَا وَنَحۡفَظُ أَخَانَا وَنَزۡدَادُ كَيۡلَ بَعِيرٖۖ ذَٰلِكَ كَيۡلٞ يَسِيرٞ

65. And when they opened their goods, they found their belongings returned to them. They said, "O our father, we desire nothing more. Here is our merchandise that has been returned to us. We will bring provisions for our family, safeguard our brother [137], and obtain an extra load of grain. This is an easy measure [138]."

Ayah 11

لَهُۥ مُعَقِّبَٰتٞ مِّنۢ بَيۡنِ يَدَيۡهِ وَمِنۡ خَلۡفِهِۦ يَحۡفَظُونَهُۥ مِنۡ أَمۡرِ ٱللَّهِۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوۡمٍ حَتَّىٰ يُغَيِّرُواْ مَا بِأَنفُسِهِمۡۗ وَإِذَآ أَرَادَ ٱللَّهُ بِقَوۡمٖ سُوٓءٗا فَلَا مَرَدَّ لَهُۥۚ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن دُونِهِۦ مِن وَالٍ

11. For each person, there are angels in succession before [28] and behind him, guarding him by Allah’s command [29]. Indeed, Allah does not change the condition of a people until they change what is within themselves [30]. And when Allah intends to bring calamity upon a people, it cannot be averted [31], and they have no protector besides Him [32].

Surah Name : Ar-Rad   Surah Number : 13   Ayat Number: 11

Ayah 30

31. And order [61] the Muslim women to lower their sights [62] a little and guard their chastity [63], and show not their adornment except that which is apparent [64], and to place their head coverings over their bosoms [65]. And disclose not their adornment except to their husbands, or the fathers [66] of their husbands, or to their sons, or the sons of their husbands [67], or their brothers, or the sons of their brothers, or the sons of their sisters [68], or the women of their religion [69], or their handmaids who are the property of their hands [70], or servants provided they are not men of sexual desire [71], or the private parts [72] of the women. And do not strike your feet forcibly on the ground so that hidden adornment [73] may be known. And repent to Allah, O you who believe [75], altogether, so that you may achieve prosperity.

وَأَنِ ٱحۡكُم بَيۡنَهُم بِمَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعۡ أَهۡوَآءَهُمۡ وَٱحۡذَرۡهُمۡ أَن يَفۡتِنُوكَ عَنۢ بَعۡضِ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَيۡكَۖ فَإِن تَوَلَّوۡاْ فَٱعۡلَمۡ أَنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ أَن يُصِيبَهُم بِبَعۡضِ ذُنُوبِهِمۡۗ وَإِنَّ كَثِيرٗا مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَفَٰسِقُونَ
