Koran 4:3 — soera An-Nisa, vers 3

وَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ أَلَّا تُقۡسِطُواْ فِي ٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ فَٱنكِحُواْ مَا طَابَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلنِّسَآءِ مَثۡنَىٰ وَثُلَٰثَ وَرُبَٰعَۖ فَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ أَلَّا تَعۡدِلُواْ فَوَٰحِدَةً أَوۡ مَا مَلَكَتۡ أَيۡمَٰنُكُمۡۚ ذَٰلِكَ أَدۡنَىٰٓ أَلَّا تَعُولُواْ

En als jullie vrezen, dat jullie niet rechtvaardig met de wezenmeisjes kunnen handelen, trouw dan (andere) vrouwen naar keuze, twee of drie of vier, maar als jullie vrezen dat jullie niet rechtvaardig (met hen) kunnen handelen dan slechts één of wat jullie rechterhand bezit. Zo kunnen jullie beter voorkomen onrechtvaardig te handelen.

And if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four. But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or those your right hand possesses. That is more suitable that you may not incline [to injustice]

Andere vertalingen 4:3

• Hilali & Khan: And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan-girls then marry (other) women of your choice, two or three, or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one or (the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is nearer to prevent you from doing injustice.
• Rowwad Translation Center (en): If you fear that you may not maintain justice with orphan girls [by marrying them] then marry women of your choice—two, three, or four; but if you fear that you may not maintain justice, then marry only one, or slave-girls you may own. That is more likely to avoid committing injustice.
