4:27
وَاللَّهُ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَيُرِيدُ الَّذِينَ يَتَّبِعُونَ الشَّهَوَاتِ أَنْ تَمِيلُوا مَيْلاً عَظِيما ً
Wa Allāhu Yurīdu 'An Yatūba `Alaykum Wa Yurīdu Al-Ladhīna Yattabi`ūna Ash-Shahawāti 'An Tamīlū Maylāan `Ažīmāan
And God wants to pardon you, but those who follow desires want that you would be diverted into a great diversion.
4:102
وَإِذَا كُنتَ فِيهِمْ فَأَقَمْتَ لَهُمُ الصَّلاَةَ فَلْتَقُمْ طَائِفَة ٌ مِنْهُمْ مَعَكَ وَلْيَأْخُذُوا أَسْلِحَتَهُمْ فَإِذَا سَجَدُوا فَلْيَكُونُوا مِنْ وَرَائِكُمْ وَلْتَأْتِ طَائِفَةٌ أُخْرَى لَمْ يُصَلُّوا فَلْيُصَلُّوا مَعَكَ وَلْيَأْخُذُوا حِذْرَهُمْ وَأَسْلِحَتَهُمْ وَدَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ تَغْفُلُونَ عَنْ أَسْلِحَتِكُمْ وَأَمْتِعَتِكُمْ فَيَمِيلُونَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَيْلَة ً وَاحِدَة ً وَلاَ جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكُمْ إِنْ كَانَ بِكُمْ أَذى ً مِنْ مَطَرٍ أَوْ كُنتُمْ مَرْضَى أَنْ تَضَعُوا أَسْلِحَتَكُمْ وَخُذُوا حِذْرَكُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَعَدَّ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَذَابا ً مُهِينا ً
Wa 'Idhā Kunta Fīhim Fa'aqamta Lahumu Aş-Şalāata Faltaqum Ţā'ifatun Minhum Ma`aka Wa Līa'khudhū 'Asliĥatahum Fa'idhā Sajadū Falyakūnū Min Warā'ikum Wa Lta'ti Ţā'ifatun 'Ukhrá Lam Yuşallū Falyuşallū Ma`aka Wa Līa'khudhū Ĥidhrahum Wa 'Asliĥatahum Wadda Al-Ladhīna Kafarū Law Taghfulūna `An 'Asliĥatikum Wa 'Amti`atikum Fayamīlūna `Alaykum Maylatan Wāĥidatan Wa Lā Junāĥa `Alaykum 'In Kāna Bikum 'Adháan Min Maţarin 'Aw Kuntum MarĐá 'An TaĐa`ū 'Asliĥatakum Wa Khudhū Ĥidhrakum 'Inna Allāha 'A`adda Lilkāfirīna `Adhābāan Muhīnāan
And if you are with them and you hold the contact prayer for them, then let a group from among them stand with you and let them bring their weapons; and when they have prostrated then let them be behind you; and let a group who has not yet made the contact prayer come and make the contact prayer with you, and let them be wary and let them bring their weapons with them. The rejecters hope that you would neglect your weapons and goods so they can come upon you in one blow. There is no sin upon you if you are impeded by rainfall, or if you are ill, that you place down your weapons. And be wary. God has prepared for the rejecters a humiliating retribution.
4:129
وَلَنْ تَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ تَعْدِلُوا بَيْنَ النِسَاء وَلَوْ حَرَصْتُمْ فَلاَ تَمِيلُوا كُلَّ الْمَيْلِ فَتَذَرُوهَا كَالْمُعَلَّقَةِ وَإِنْ تُصْلِحُوا وَتَتَّقُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ غَفُورا ً رَحِيما ً
Wa Lan Tastaţī`ū 'An Ta`dilū Bayna An-Nisā' Wa Law Ĥaraştum Falā Tamīlū Kulla Al-Mayli Fatadharūhā Kālmu`allaqati Wa 'In Tuşliĥū Wa Tattaqū Fa'inna Allāha Kāna Ghafūrāan Raĥīmāan
And you will not be able to be fair regarding the women even if you make every effort; so do not sway too greatly and leave her as one hanging in a void. And if you reconcile and do right, then God is Forgiver, Merciful.
