observe the fast till nightfall and touch
them not, but be at your devotions in the mosques. These are the limits
imposed by Allah, so approach them not. Thus Allah expoundeth His
revelation to mankind that they may ward off (evil).

S: It is made lawful to you to go into your wives on the night of the
fast; they are an apparel for you and you are an apparel for them;
Allah knew that you acted unfaithfully to yourselves, so He has turned
to you (mercifully) and removed from you (this burden); so now be in

That ye may prosper.

P: They ask thee, (O Muhammad), of new moons, say: They are fixed
seasons for mankind and for the pilgrimage. It is not righteousness
that ye go to houses by the backs thereof (as do the idolaters at
certain seasons), but the righteous man is he who wardeth off (evil).
So go to houses by the gates thereof, and observe your duty to Allah,
that ye may be successful.

S: They ask you concerning the new moon. Say: They are times appointed
for (the benefit of) men, and (for) the pilgrimage; and it is not
righteousness that you should enter the houses at their backs, but
righteousness is this that one should guard (ag
