24.31 - And say to the believing women to lower their visions and guard their private parts and not show their adornment except what appears thereof. And let them draw their veils over their bosoms and not show their adornment except to their husbands or their fathers or the fathers of their husbands or their sons or the sons of their husbands or their brothers or the sons of their brothers or the sons of their sisters or their women or those whom their oaths possess or the attendants of men who do not have need (for women) or the children who are not aware of the private parts of women. And let them (the believing women) not strike their legs to make known what they conceal of their adornment. And repent to Allah, all of you , O believers, that perhaps you will succeed. 24.32 - And marry the unmarried women among you and the pious from among your male slaves and your female slaves; if they should be poor, Allah will enrich them out of His grace. And Allah is Vast, Knowing. 24.33 - And let those, who do not find (means of) marriage, be chaste until Allah enrich them out of His grace. And those who ask for the book (of marriage) from among those whom your oaths possess, make a (marriage) contract with them if you know in them goodness, and give them from the wealth of Allah which He has given you. And do not compel your young women to prostitution, if they desire protection (though marriage), to seek thereby the span of the life of this world; and whoever compels them, then indeed, Allah is, after their compulsion, Forgiving, Merciful. 24.34 - And We have certainly sent down to you clear signs and an example of those who have passed on before you and an admonition for those who fear. 24.35 - Allah is the light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is like a niche in which is a lamp, the lamp is in a glass, the glass is like a shining planet lit from a blessed olive tree, neither eastern nor western, its oil almost gives light even if not touched by fire. Light upon light. Allah guides to His light whom He wills. And Allah strikes examples for the people; and Allah is of everything Knowing. 24.36 - (Such niches are) in houses which Allah has permitted to be raised and that His name be mentioned therein; glorifying Him therein in the morning and the evenings. 24.37 - Men whom neither trading nor sale distracts from the remembrance of Allah and the establishment of prayer and the giving of Zakah (Alms). They fear a day in which the hearts and visions will turn about. 24.38 - That Allah may reward them for the best of what they have done and increase them out of His grace. And Allah provides for whom He wills without measure. 24.39 - And those who have disbelieved, their deeds are like mirage in a lowland which a thirsty one thinks is water until, when he comes to it, he finds not to be a thing and finds Allah before him, and He will pay him in full his reckoning. And Allah is swift in reckoning. 24.40 - Or (they are) like darkness within deep sea which is covered by waves, upon which are waves, over which are clouds. Darkness, some of it is above others. When he holds out his hand, he will not be able to see it. And one to whom Allah has not make light, then there will be no light for him.
