  1. 22

    وَلَا تَنكِحُوا۟ مَا نَكَحَ ءَابَآؤُكُم مِّنَ ٱلنِّسَآءِ إِلَّا مَا قَدْ سَلَفَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ فَـٰحِشَةً وَمَقْتًا وَسَآءَ سَبِيلًا

    (22) And do not marry those [women] whom your fathers married, except what has already occurred.[175] Indeed, it was an immorality and hateful [to Allāh] and was evil as a way.

    Footnotes

    [175]- Before Islām. After the ruling was revealed by Allāh, men were required to release those women unlawful to them (e.g., a stepmother, one of two sisters, or any wives over the limit of four). The same obligation applies to one once he has accepted Islām.

    Covers verses 22

    {22} أي: لا تتزوَّجوا من النساء ما تزوَّجهنَّ آباؤكم؛ أي: الأب وإن علا. {إنه كان فاحشة}؛ أي: أمراً قبيحاً يفحُشُ ويعظُمُ قبحُهُ. {ومَقْتاً}: من الله لكم، ومن الخلق، بل يَمْقُتُ بسبب ذلك الابن أباه والأب ابنه مع الأمر ببرِّه. {وساء سبيلاً}؛ أي: بئس الطريق طريقاً لمن سلكه؛ لأنَّ هذا من عوائد الجاهلية التي جاء الإسلام بالتنزُّه عنها والبراءة منها.
