221. And do not marry Al-Mushrikât (idolatresses, etc.) till
they believe (worship Allâh Alone). And indeed a slave woman who
believes is better than a (free) Mushrikah (idolatress,
etc.), even though she pleases you. And give not (your daughters)
in marriage to Al-Mushrikûn till they believe (in Allâh
Alone) and verily, a believing slave is better than a (free)
Mushrik (idolater, etc.), even though he pleases you. Those
(Al-Mushrikûn) invite you to the Fire, but Allâh invites
(you) to Paradise and Forgiveness by His Leave, and makes His
Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs,
revelations, etc.) clear to mankind that they may remember.
