228. Divorced women shall wait concerning themselves for three monthly periods. Nor is
it lawful for them to hide what Allah Hath created in their wombs, if they have faith in
Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands have the better right to take them back in that
period, if they wish for reconciliation. And women shall have rights similar to the rights
against them, according to what is equitable; but men have a degree (of advantage) over
them. And Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.
