(21) وَكَيْفَ تَأْخُذُونَهُ وَقَدْ أَفْضَى بَعْضُكُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ وَأَخَذْنَ مِنكُم مِّيثَاقًا غَلِيظًا
21. " And how can you take it (back) when one of you has already gone in to the other and they have taken from you a firm covenant ? "
Commentary :
This verse indicates that in the fulfilment of propagations and forbidding wrong, human's affections should be utilized either. (You that, for a long time, have had a whole relationship with your wife and have obtained your wishes, why do you take back her dower unjustly now ? ) Then, at the time of misfortunes of life, former pleasures should be remembered, too.
" And how can you take it (back) when one of you has already gone in to the other? ..."
The marriage contract is a firm covenant; therefore, breach of promise is not proper.
"... and they have taken from you a firm covenant."
