Al-Ahzaab 33:49

Read the whole surah

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا نَكَحۡتُمُ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنَٰتِ ثُمَّ طَلَّقۡتُمُوهُنَّ مِن قَبۡلِ أَن تَمَسُّوهُنَّ فَمَا لَكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِنَّ مِنۡ عِدَّةٖ تَعۡتَدُّونَهَاۖ فَمَتِّعُوهُنَّ وَسَرِّحُوهُنَّ سَرَاحٗا جَمِيلٗا

Rowwad Translation Center

O you who believe, when you marry believing women and then divorce them before the marriage is consummated[1], you have no reason to ask them to observe any waiting period[2], so give them compensation and release them in a pleasant manner.

Notes

[1] Lit., before you touch them. [2] A divorced woman whose marriage has been consummated normally observes a waiting period (‘iddah) of three menstrual cycles (see 2:228), or three months if she does not menstruate (see 65:4).
