The Koran (Al-Qur'an) IN THE NAME OF THE MOST MERCIFUL GOD. / CHAPTER LXV. / ENTITLED, DIVORCE; REVEALED AT MEDINA. / IN THE NAME OF THE MOST MERCIFUL GOD.; lines 36252-36326 confidence: high
The Prophet is told that when women are divorced, they are to be put away at their appointed term, the term is to be computed exactly, and the women are not to be expelled or to leave before the term except for manifest uncleanness; these are called the statutes of God.
Divorce is treated as a transition governed by appointed terms, residence rules, witnesses, support obligations, and stated divine statutes.
