O you who acknowledge, if the acknowledging women come emigrating to you, then you shall test them. God is fully aware of their acknowledgement. Thus, if you establish that they are those who acknowledge, then you shall not return them to those who do not appreciate. They are no longer lawful for them, nor are those who do not appreciate lawful for them. Return the dowries that were paid. There is no sin upon you to marry them, if you have paid their dowries to them. Do not keep the wives who do not acknowledge, and ask back what dowries you paid. Let them ask back what dowries they had paid. Such is God's judgment; He judges between you. God is Knowledgeable, Wise.

[60:10] We should take a lesson from the meticulous care for the rights of individuals that have participated in war. Returning the dowries paid to the women who sought refuge among muslims to those who live with the aggressive enemies demonstrates the highest standard for a peaceful society that puts the value of justice and peace far above financial gain. It is no wonder Muhammed and his followers soon conquered the hearts of the entire population and were able to return peacefully to their hometown as victors. This shows that Muhammed’s mission was not to gain more wealth, as some biased critic claim, since women would be encouraged to smuggle as much as they can from enemy ranks.
