The purpose of the present study is to explain the jurisprudential theme in the third verse of Surah an-Nesā’ and to review disagreements over its exact date. The method of study is descriptive-analytic and the results show that the approximate revelation date of the verses under study is related to after the battle of Uhod, the late third and the early fourth year of Hijrah. The subjects raised in these verses are mostly about social relations among Muslims. This type of relationship is related to the era after Hijrah and the 10-year time period during the Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) prophethood. Another subject mentioned in these verses is related to the custody of widowed women and orphan children and taking care of them and that upon the marriage of those widowed women, a supporter and instructor would be provided for their children.
