தங்கள் மனைவியருடன் கூடுவதில்லையென்று சத்தியம் செய்து கொண்டு (விலகி) இருப்பவர்களுக்கு நான்கு மாதத் தவணையுள்ளது. எனவே, (அதற்குள்) அவர்கள் மீண்டு(ம் சேர்ந்துக்) கொண்டால் நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் மன்னிப்போனாகவும், மிக்க கருணையுடையோனுமாகவும் இருக்கின்றான்.

Tafsir of 2:226

If the vow of Ila' was for less than four months, the man has to wait for the vow's period to end and then is allowed to have sexual intercourse with his wife. She has to be patient and she cannot ask her husband, in this case, to end his vow before the end of its term. It is reported in the Two Sahihs that `A'ishah said that Allah's Messenger ﷺ swore he would stay away from with his wives for a month. He then came down after twenty-nine days saying: «الشَّهْرُ تِسْعٌ وَعِشْرُون» (The (lunar) month is twenty-nine days.) Similar was narrated by `Umar bin Al-Khattab and reported in the Two Sahihs. If the period of Ila' is for more than four months, the wife is allowed in this case to ask her husband, upon the end of the four months, to end the Ila' and have sexual relations with her. Otherwise, he should divorce her, by being forced to do so by the authorities if necessary, so that the wife is not harmed.…
