Ey Peygamber'in eşleri! Eğer o sizi boşarsa, Rabbi ona; sizden daha iyi olan, kendini Allah'a veren, inanan, boyun eğen, tevbe eden, kulluk eden, oruç tutan, dul ve bakire eşler verebilir.
If he divorces you, his Lord may well give him in your place wives better than you — women who surrender, who believe, who are devout, who turn back in repentance, who worship, who journey in faith — whether previously married or virgins.
Sā'iḥāt is the unusual item in this list. Its verb means to travel or roam the land, and early commentators read it here as those who fast, taking the fasting person to be a traveller of a kind, while others kept the sense of leaving home for God. The list then closes on two words that describe circumstance instead of character: previously married, or never married.
