After divorce, woman can marry any other husband
Surah ‘Al-Baqarah (The Cow) – Chapter – 2)
Stage – 1, Verses – 232 of 286, Section – 30 of
40 (Part - 2)
BisMIllaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful
And when ye have divorced women and they reach their term,
place not difficulties in the way of their marrying their husbands if it is
agreed between them in kindness. This is admonition for him among you who
believeth in Allah and the Last Day. That is more virtuous for you, and
cleaner. And Allah knoweth; and ye know not.

Lesson
fabalagna ‘ajalahunna – (when they
reach their term), translation of fabalagna is ‘when they
reach’ that is to say; they complete. Meaning of ‘ajalahunna is
‘their term’, specific period, according to Divine Law of Religion which is
called ‘iddat.
‘izaa tallaqtum – (when you have divorced),
here it has been addressed state forward to the husbands, but this speech is
for the entire nation.
‘azwaajahunna – (their husbands), it means
“their those husbands whom the women like after divorce from first husband”,
either they wish to wed any new man or the previous husband who have divorced
them once.
Taraazaw – (when) it
is agreed (between them). It reveals from this word that
‘affirmation’ and ‘approval/reception’ both are pillars of marriage. It is a
separate thing that if, instead of husband and wife, their guardians or agents
(father or any other patron from any side) do ‘affirmation’ and ‘approval/reception’,
and they (husband and wife) admit it. Otherwise, if they don’t agree then there
is no marriage.
Reason for
revelation of this verse is that a woman was divorced by her husband once or
twice and he didn’t incline during the period of term. When the period of ‘iddat expired,
then along with other persons, he also sent message for marriage. The woman was
agreeing but her brother was in a rage and he stopped her sister’s marriage
with her first husband. So, then it was revealed in the Holy Qur-’an that; pleasure and welfare of
the woman should be kept in front, the marriage should be done with her
agreement. One’s thought and displeasure shouldn’t interfere. However, if there
is something wrong according to rules, for example; if she wants to wed any
other person during her first husband’s term, then surely he has right to stop
this marriage.
