Yusuf Ali
Also (prohibited are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess: Thus hath Allah ordained (Prohibitions) against you: Except for these, all others are lawful, provided ye seek (them in marriage) with gifts from your property,- desiring chastity, not lust, seeing that ye derive benefit from them, give them their dowers (at least) as prescribed; but if, after a dower is prescribed, agree Mutually (to vary it), there is no blame on you, and Allah is All-knowing, All-wise.
Sahih International
And [also prohibited to you are all] married women except those your right hands possess. [This is] the decree of Allah upon you. And lawful to you are [all others] beyond these, [provided] that you seek them [in marriage] with [gifts from] your property, desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse. So for whatever you enjoy [of marriage] from them, give them their due compensation as an obligation. And there is no blame upon you for what you mutually agree to beyond the obligation. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.
Shakir
And all married women except those whom your right hands possess (this is) Allah´s ordinance to you, and lawful for you are (all women) besides those, provided that you seek (them) with your property, taking (them) in marriage not committing fornication. Then as to those whom you profit by, give them their dowries as appointed; and there is no blame on you about what you mutually agree after what is appointed; surely Allah is Knowing, Wise.
Pickthall
And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess. It is a decree of Allah for you. Lawful unto you are all beyond those mentioned, so that ye seek them with your wealth in honest wedlock, not debauchery. And those of whom ye seek content (by marrying them), give unto them their portions as a duty. And there is no sin for you in what ye do by mutual agreement after the duty (hath been done). Lo! Allah is ever Knower, Wise.
محمد جالندھری
اور شوہر والی عورتیں بھی (تم پر حرام ہیں) مگر وہ جو (اسیر ہو کر لونڈیوں کے طور پر) تمہارے قبضے میں آجائیں (یہ حکم) خدا نے تم کو لکھ دیا ہے اور ان (محرمات) کے سوا اور عورتیں تم کو حلال ہیں اس طرح سے کہ مال خرچ کر کے ان سے نکاح کرلو بشرطیکہ (نکاح سے) مقصود عفت قائم رکھنا ہو نہ شہوت رانی تو جن عورتوں سے تم فائدہ حاصل کرو ان کا مہر جو مقرر کیا ہو ادا کردو اور اگر مقرر کرنے کے بعد آپس کی رضامندی سے مہر میں کمی بیشی کرلو تو تم پر کچھ گناہ نہیں بےشک خدا سب کچھ جاننے والا (اور) حکمت والا ہے
