Salam All...
Hope you are all fine...i came across this verse..."Those who separate themselves from their wives by pronouncing, "To me you are like my mother's back', must concede that they are not their mothers, none are their mothers except those who gave birth to them - surely they utter an evil word and a lie. God is pardoning, forgiving. Those who put away their wives by equating them with their mothers, and then wish to go back on what they have said, must free a slave before the may touch one another again. THis is what you are exhorted to do. God is fully aware of what you do, and anyone who does not have the means must fast for two consecutive months before they touch each other, and who is not able to do that must feed sixty needy people. This is to affirm your faith in God and His messenger. These are the limits set by God. Those who deny the truth shall have a painful punishment."
What does the above verse mean?..For example...sometimes my husband says tat..."u care like my mother.."...is it not allowed to say like this?...and sometimes...out of love..we both call each other..."AMMA"..which means...mother in Tamil...but we do not mean to call each other mother...but..just to show our love..we just say like this..is it not allowed to call like this?...did we do any sin by doing such things?...should we fast two months or feed sixty people?..can you please clear it...?..THank you very much..
