IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE[24:59]
Yet when the children among you attain to puberty, let them ask leave of you [at all times], even as those [who have reached maturity] before them have been enjoined to ask it.
In this way God makes clear unto you His messages: for God is all-knowing, wise!

* v.59 : Lit., “have asked it”: a reference to the injunction laid down in verses 27-28 above. My interpolation, between brackets, of the phrase “who have reached maturity” is based on Zamakhsharī’s interpretation of the words “those before them.”
