surah Ahzab aya 4 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿مَّا جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لِرَجُلٍ مِّن قَلْبَيْنِ فِي جَوْفِهِ ۚ وَمَا جَعَلَ أَزْوَاجَكُمُ اللَّائِي تُظَاهِرُونَ مِنْهُنَّ أُمَّهَاتِكُمْ ۚ وَمَا جَعَلَ أَدْعِيَاءَكُمْ أَبْنَاءَكُمْ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ قَوْلُكُم بِأَفْوَاهِكُمْ ۖ وَاللَّهُ يَقُولُ الْحَقَّ وَهُوَ يَهْدِي السَّبِيلَ﴾
[ الأحزاب: 4]
33:4 Allah has not made for a man two hearts in his interior. And He has not made your wives whom you declare unlawful your mothers. And he has not made your adopted sons your [true] sons. That is [merely] your saying by your mouths, but Allah says the truth, and He guides to the [right] way.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishJust as Allah has not placed two hearts in the chest of any man, as some of them believe, likewise He did not make wives like mothers with respect to being forbidden to marry, and likewise He did not make claimed sons like biological sons, because thihar which is for a man to make his wife unlawful for himself, and likewise, claiming the children of others as one’s own are practices of ignorance which Islam has nullified.
That making unlawful through thihar and taking as sons those whose fathers you are not is a statement you repeat with your mouths, which has no reality.
The wife is not a mother nor is the claimed son rightfully for the claimant.
And Allah says the truth so that His servants practice it, and He guides towards the path of truth.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
Allah has not put for any man two hearts inside his body. Neither has He made your wives whom you declare to be like your mothers' backs, your real mothers. [AzZihar is the saying of a husband to his wife, "You are to me like the back of my mother" i.e. You are unlawful for me to approach.], nor has He made your adopted sons your real sons. That is but your saying with your mouths. But Allah says the truth, and He guides to the (Right) Way.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
Allah has not made for any man two hearts in his (one) body: nor has He made your wives whom ye divorce by Zihar your mothers: nor has He made your adopted sons your sons. Such is (only) your (manner of) speech by your mouths. But Allah tells (you) the Truth, and He shows the (right) Way.
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
Allah has not made for any man two hearts inside his body. Neither has He made your wives whom you declare to be like your mothers' backs, your real mothers nor has He made your adopted sons your real sons. That is but your saying with your mouths. But Allah says the truth, and He guides to the way.

33:4 Allah has not made for a man two hearts in his interior. translate in arabic
ما جعل الله لرجل من قلبين في جوفه وما جعل أزواجكم اللائي تظاهرون منهن أمهاتكم وما جعل أدعياءكم أبناءكم ذلكم قولكم بأفواهكم والله يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل
سورة: الأحزاب - آية: ( 4 ) - جزء: ( 21 ) - صفحة: ( 418 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
Never did Allah provide a man with two hearts within his body nor did He make your wives whom you divorce by the diction mothers back your mothers, nor did He ordain that your adopted sons be designated as your sons. This is your story and the allegation to which you give tongue whereas Allah declares the truth as guides you thereto
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(33:4) Allah has never put two hearts within one person's body; *5 nor has He made your wives, whom you compare to your mothers' backs (to divorce them), *6 your true mothers; nor has He made those whom you adopt as sons your own sons. *7 These are only words that you utter with your mouths. But Allah proclaims the Truth and directs you to the Right Path.
Allah has not made for a man two hearts in his interior. meaning
*5) That is, "One and the same person cannot be a believer and a hypocrite, truthful and false, wicked and righteous, at one and the same time. He dces not have two hearts in this chest that one should have sincerity in it and the other fearlessness of God. Therefore, a man can have only one kind of character. at a time: either he will be a believer or a hypocrite, a disbeliever or a Muslim. Now if you call a believer a hypocrite, or a hypocrite a believer, it will not change the reality. The true character of the person will inevitably remain the same."
*6) Zihar is a term in Arabic. In old days when an Arab; in the heat of a domestic quarrel, would say to his wife: "Your back for me is as the back of my mother," it was thought that the woman was no longer lawful for him because he had compared her to his mother. About this Allah says: "A woman does not become a man's mother just because he has called her his mother or compared her to his mother. His mother is the woman who bore him. Only his Balling his wife his mother cannot change the reality." (For the Islamic Law concerning Zihar, see Surah Mujadalah: 2-a).
*7) This is what is intended to be said. The two preceding sentences are meant to support and emphasize this same point.

اللہ نے کسی شخص کے دھڑ میں دو دِل نہیں رکھے ہیں، نہ اس نے تم لوگوں کی اُن بیویوں کو جن سے تم ظہار کرتے ہو تمہاری ماں بنا دیا ہے، اور نہ اس نے تمہارے منہ بولے بیٹوں کو تمہارا حقیقی بیٹا بنایا ہے یہ تو وہ باتیں ہیں جو تم لوگ اپنے منہ سے نکال دیتے ہو، مگر اللہ وہ بات کہتا ہے جو مبنی بر حقیقت ہے، اور وہی صحیح طریقے کی طرف رہنمائی کرتا ہے
