ما جعل الله لرجل من قلبين في جوفه ۚ وما جعل أزواجكم اللائي تظاهرون منهن أمهاتكم ۚ وما جعل أدعياءكم أبناءكم ۚ ذلكم قولكم بأفواهكم ۖ والله يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل
Yusuf Ali
Allah has not made for any man two hearts in his (one) body: nor has He made your wives whom ye divorce by Zihar your mothers: nor has He made your adopted sons your sons. Such is (only) your (manner of) speech by your mouths. But Allah tells (you) the Truth, and He shows the (right) Way.
ادعوهم لآبائهم هو أقسط عند الله ۚ فإن لم تعلموا آباءهم فإخوانكم في الدين ومواليكم ۚ وليس عليكم جناح فيما أخطأتم به ولكن ما تعمدت قلوبكم ۚ وكان الله غفورا رحيما
Yusuf Ali
Call them by (the names of) their fathers: that is juster in the sight of Allah. But if ye know not their father's (names, call them) your Brothers in faith, or your maulas. But there is no blame on you if ye make a mistake therein: (what counts is) the intention of your hearts: and Allah is Oft - Returning, Most Merciful.
النبي أولى بالمؤمنين من أنفسهم ۖ وأزواجه أمهاتهم ۗ وأولو الأرحام بعضهم أولى ببعض في كتاب الله من المؤمنين والمهاجرين إلا أن تفعلوا إلى أوليائكم معروفا ۚ كان ذلك في الكتاب مسطورا
Yusuf Ali
The Prophet is closer to the Believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers. Blood - relations among each other have closer personal ties, in the Decree of Allah. Than (the Brotherhood of) Believers and Muhajirs: nevertheless do ye what is just to your closest friends: such is the writing in the Decree (of Allah).

Yusuf Ali
O ye who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses, - until leave is given you, - for a meal, (and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation: but when ye are invited, enter; and when ye have taken your meal, disperse, without seeking familiar talk. Such (behaviour) annoys the Prophet: he is ashamed to dismiss you, but Allah is not ashamed (to tell you) the truth. And when ye ask (his ladies) for anything ye want, ask them from before a screen: that makes for greater purity for your hearts and for theirs. Nor is it right for you that ye should annoy Allah's Messenger, or that ye should marry his widows after him at any time. Truly such a thing is in Allah's sight an enormity.
