5 Al-Ma'idah 5
And if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then
6 Al-An'am 6 marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four.
7 Al-A'raf 7 But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or
those your right hands possess [i.e., slaves]. That is more suitable
8 Al-Anfal 8 that you may not incline [to injustice].

9 At-Tawbah 9
10 Yunus 10 If you fear that you will not do justice to the orphans, then, marry the
11 Hud 11 women you like, in twos, in threes and in fours. But, if you fear that
you will not maintain equity, then (keep to) one woman, or
12 Yusuf 12
bondwomen you own. It will be closer to abstaining from injustice.
— Mufti Taqi Usmani
And, in case you fear that you will not act equitably towards the
orphans, then marry such women as is good to you, two, three, four,
(Literally: in twos and threes and fours) then, in case you fear that
you will not do justice, then one (only), or what your right hands
possess. That (way) is likelier you will not be in want (Or: you will
have too many dependents).
— Dr. Ghali
If you fear that you will not deal fairly with orphan girls, you may
marry whichever [other] women seem good to you, two, three, or
four. If you fear that you cannot be equitable [to them], then marry
only one, or your slave(s): that is more likely to make you avoid bias.
— Abdul Haleem
If you fear that you might not treat the orphans justly, then marry the
1
women that seem good to you: two, or three, or four. If you fear
2
that you will not be able to treat them justly, then marry (only) one,
3
or marry from among those whom your right hands possess. This
will make it more likely that you will avoid injustice.
— Tafheem-ul-Quran - Abul Ala Maududi
And if ye fear that ye will not deal fairly by the orphans, marry of the
women, who seem good to you, two or three or four; and if ye fear
that ye cannot do justice (to so many) then one (only) or (the
captives) that your right hands possess. Thus it is more likely that ye
will not do injustice.
— English Translation (Pickthall)
If ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans,
Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four; but if ye fear that
ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a
captive) that your right hands possess, that will be more suitable, to
prevent you from doing injustice.
— English Translation (Yusuf Ali)
