New release from Abū Mālik al-Shāmī: “And Do Not Forget Graciousness Between You”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

The title of this release is in reference to Qur’anic verse 2:237. Here it is in full: “And if you divorce them before you have touched them and you have already specified for them an obligation, then [give] half of what you specified – unless they forego the right or the one in whose hand is the marriage contract foregoes it. And to forego it is nearer to righteousness. And do not forget graciousness between you. Indeed God, of whatever you do, is Seeing.”
