dear Dr. Sahib,
Salamun Alaikum.
23:6 Holding off their desire except for their spouses whom they each other rightfully possess [Malakat aimanuhum]. They are then, free of all blame.
24:58 O You who have chosen to be graced with belief! Let your servants [Malakat aiamanukum] and children who have not yet come of age ask your permission before coming in to see you on three occasions: Before you engage in your assignments at dawn, at noon when you are resting with light clothes, and after you have completed your assignments at night. These are your three times of privacy. At other times it is not wrong for you or for them to move about freely, attending to one another. In this way, God makes clear to you the revelations, for, God is All Knowing, Wise.
In the above verses same wordings (malakat aimanukum/nuhum) are used. but rather two different meanings are stated. I'll be grateful if you please shed some light on these verses.
Regards,
Mahadi
