240. And those of you who die and leave behind wives should
bequeath for their wives a year's maintenance and residence without
turning them out, but if they (wives) leave, there is no sin on you
for that which they do of themselves, provided it is honourable
(e.g. lawful marriage). And Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise. [The
order of this Verse has been cancelled (abrogated) by Verse
