Surah Baqarah Ayat 234 meaning in Hindi

और तुममें से जो लोग मर जाएँ और अपने पीछे पत्नियों छोड़ जाएँ, तो वे पत्नियों अपने-आपको चार महीने और दस दिन तक रोके रखें। फिर जब वे अपनी निर्धारित अवधि (इद्दत) को पहुँच जाएँ, तो सामान्य नियम के अनुसार वे अपने लिए जो कुछ करें, उसमें तुमपर कोई गुनाह नहीं। जो कुछ तुम करते हो, अल्लाह उसकी ख़बर रखता है

Quran Urdu translation

اور جو لوگ تم میں سے مرجائیں اور عورتیں چھوڑ جائیں تو عورتیں چار مہینے دس دن اپنے آپ کو روکے رہیں۔ اور جب (یہ) عدت پوری کرچکیں اور اپنے حق میں پسندیدہ کام (یعنی نکاح) کرلیں تو ان پر کچھ گناہ نہیں۔ اور خدا تمہارے سب کاموں سے واقف ہے

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(2:234) If those of you, who die, leave wives behind, they should abstain (from marriage) for four months and ten days. *259 Then when their waiting term expires, they are free to do whatever they choose for themselves, provided that it is decent; you shall not be answerable for this; Allah is fully aware of what you do.

And those who are taken in death among you and leave wives meaning

*259). The waiting period owing to the death of the husband is obligatory even for a woman with whom consummation of marriage has not taken place. A pregnant woman, however, is exempted from this. Her waiting period expires the husband's death and the childbirth is less than the waiting period prescribed by Law.
'To observe a waiting period' does not mean merely that they should refrain from marrying, but also from self-adornment.
Hence we find categorical directives in the Hadith that a widow should neither wear colourful and showy dresses and jewellery, make use of henna, kohl, and perfumes, nor set her hair in an attractive style. There is disagreement, however, as to whether the widow may go out of her house during the waiting period. 'Umar, 'UthmaAn, Ibn 'Umar, Zayd ibn Thabit, Ibn Mas'uid, Ummn Salamah, Said ibn al-Musayyib, Ibrahim al-Nakha'i, Muhammad ibn Sirin and the founders of the four legal schools are of the opinion that during the waiting period a woman should stay in the house in which her husband died. During the daytime she may go out to do necessary errands, but her residence should be her own home. On contrary, 'A'ishah, Ibn 'Abbas, 'Ali, Jabir ibn 'Abd Allah. 'Ata'. Ta'us, Hasan al-Basri. 'Umar ibn'Abd al'Aziz and the Zahiris are of the opinion that a widow may spend her waiting period wherever she likes, and may even go on journeys. (See the commentary on the verse in JassAs. vol. 1, pp. 418 f. - Ed.)
