Say, to them: 'Allahu ta’ālā pronounces to you concerning them, and what is recited to you in the Book, the Qur'ān, in the 'inheritance' verse [Q. 4:11], and He also pronounces to you, concerning the orphan women to whom you do not give what is prescribed, [what] is obligatory, for them, of inheritance, for you, O guardians, [who] desire, not, to marry them, because of their ugliness, and you prevent them from marrying [others], coveting their inheritance: in other words, Allahu ta’ālā pronounces to you not to do this; and, concerning, the oppressed, young, children, that you give them what is their due, and, He also commands you, that you deal justly, equitably, with orphans, with respect to inheritance and dowry. Whatever good you do, Allahu ta’ālā is ever Knower of it', and He will requite you for it.
