226لِلَّذينَ يُؤلونَ مِن نِسائِهِم تَرَبُّصُ أَربَعَةِ أَشهُرٍ ۖ فَإِن فاءوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفورٌ رَحيمٌ(Saheeh International)For those who swear not to have sexual relations with their wives1 is a waiting time of four months, but if they return [to normal relations] – then indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful. Without divorcing them. By such an oath the woman is deprived of her right in marriage but is not free to marry another. She may not be kept in such a condition beyond the four-month limit.
