Ayah 145

قُل لَّآ أَجِدُ فِي مَآ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ مُحَرَّمًا عَلَىٰ طَاعِمٖ يَطۡعَمُهُۥٓ إِلَّآ أَن يَكُونَ مَيۡتَةً أَوۡ دَمٗا مَّسۡفُوحًا أَوۡ لَحۡمَ خِنزِيرٖ فَإِنَّهُۥ رِجۡسٌ أَوۡ فِسۡقًا أُهِلَّ لِغَيۡرِ ٱللَّهِ بِهِۦۚ فَمَنِ ٱضۡطُرَّ غَيۡرَ بَاغٖ وَلَا عَادٖ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ

145. Say, "I do not find in what has been revealed to me anything forbidden [328] to an eater except it be a dead body [329], or flowing blood [330], or the flesh of swine—for that is surely impure—or disobedience through which a name other than Allah has been invoked during slaughter [331]. But whoever is compelled by necessity, neither desiring it nor exceeding the limit, then surely your Lord is Most Forgiving, Ever Merciful [332]."

Surah Name : Al-Anam   Surah Number : 6   Ayat Number: 145

Ayah 121

وَلَا تَأۡكُلُواْ مِمَّا لَمۡ يُذۡكَرِ ٱسۡمُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡهِ وَإِنَّهُۥ لَفِسۡقٞۗ وَإِنَّ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينَ لَيُوحُونَ إِلَىٰٓ أَوۡلِيَآئِهِمۡ لِيُجَٰدِلُوكُمۡۖ وَإِنۡ أَطَعۡتُمُوهُمۡ إِنَّكُمۡ لَمُشۡرِكُونَ

121. And eat not that over which the name of Allah has not been pronounced [266], for surely that is disobedience. And indeed, the Shaitaan inspire their friends to argue with you [267]. And if you obey them, then indeed you are polytheists [268].

Ayah 119

وَمَا لَكُمۡ أَلَّا تَأۡكُلُواْ مِمَّا ذُكِرَ ٱسۡمُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡهِ وَقَدۡ فَصَّلَ لَكُم مَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ إِلَّا مَا ٱضۡطُرِرۡتُمۡ إِلَيۡهِۗ وَإِنَّ كَثِيرٗا لَّيُضِلُّونَ بِأَهۡوَآئِهِم بِغَيۡرِ عِلۡمٍۚ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعۡلَمُ بِٱلۡمُعۡتَدِينَ

119. And what has happened to you that you do not eat of that on which the name of Allah has been pronounced [259]? He has explained to you in detail [260] what is forbidden to you, except that you are compelled to do so. And indeed, many lead others astray with their desires without knowledge [261]. Surely, your Lord knows well the transgressors [262].

Ayah 118

فَكُلُواْ مِمَّا ذُكِرَ ٱسۡمُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيۡهِ إِن كُنتُم بِـَٔايَٰتِهِۦ مُؤۡمِنِينَ

118. Then eat of that on which the name of Allah has been mentioned [257] if you are believers in His signs [258].

Ayah 1

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَوۡفُواْ بِٱلۡعُقُودِۚ أُحِلَّتۡ لَكُم بَهِيمَةُ ٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمِ إِلَّا مَا يُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡكُمۡ غَيۡرَ مُحِلِّي ٱلصَّيۡدِ وَأَنتُمۡ حُرُمٌۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَحۡكُمُ مَا يُرِيدُ

1. O believers! Fulfill your promises [1]. Lawful for you are the four-legged animals, except those which will be recited to you [2]—and do not permit hunting while you are in the state of Ihram [3]. Indeed, Allah commands whatever He wills.
