Surah at-Talaq (The Divorce ) 65 : 7

لِيُنفِقْ ذُو سَعَةٍ مِّن سَعَتِهِۦ ۖ وَمَن قُدِرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقُهُۥ فَلْيُنفِقْ مِمَّآ ءَاتَىٰهُ ٱللَّهُ ۚ لَا يُكَلِّفُ ٱللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا مَآ ءَاتَىٰهَا ۚ سَيَجْعَلُ ٱللَّهُ بَعْدَ عُسْرٍ يُسْرًا

Let a man of wealth spend from his wealth, and he whose provision is limited - let him spend from what Allāh has given him. Allāh does not burden any soul except [according to] what He has given it. Allāh will bring about, after hardship, ease [i.e., relief].

Explanatory Note

The person to whom God has given in plenty should be generous in what he gives to his divorced wife in respect of her housing, maintenance and compensation for breast-feeding their child. The one who has limited provisions is not to be blamed for giving according to his means. God does not require anyone to spend above their means. It is He who gives us what we have. No one can have anything other than what God has given him, because there is no other source from which people may take anything. His is the only treasure on which all creatures depend.

Then follows a gentle touch that is bound to please and open a window of hope for both parties. It is through God alone that hardship is followed by ease and generous provisions are given after means have been restricted. It behoves both parties then to pin their hopes on Him alone, watching Him in their dealings with each other and maintaining an attitude based on fearing Him in all their affairs. It is to Him that they look up with hope, and it is He who provides comfort and ease after difficulty and hardship.

7. Period of Revelation

[ edit ]

Abdullah bin Masud (a famous companion) has pointed out, and the internal evidence of the subject matter of the Surah confirms the same, that it must have been sent down after the verses of Surah 2: al-Baqarah (The Cow) in which commandments concerning divorce were given for the first time.
