Ayah 173

إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡمَيۡتَةَ وَٱلدَّمَ وَلَحۡمَ ٱلۡخِنزِيرِ وَمَآ أُهِلَّ بِهِۦ لِغَيۡرِ ٱللَّهِۖ فَمَنِ ٱضۡطُرَّ غَيۡرَ بَاغٖ وَلَا عَادٖ فَلَآ إِثۡمَ عَلَيۡهِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٌ

173. He has only forbidden to you carrion, blood, and the flesh of swine [365], and that which has been slaughtered while invoking the name of other than Allah [366]. But whoever is forced (by necessity) [367], neither desiring it nor transgressing its limits, there is no sin upon him [368]. Indeed, Allah is the Most Forgiving, Ever Merciful [369].

Ayah 115

إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡمَيۡتَةَ وَٱلدَّمَ وَلَحۡمَ ٱلۡخِنزِيرِ وَمَآ أُهِلَّ لِغَيۡرِ ٱللَّهِ بِهِۦۖ فَمَنِ ٱضۡطُرَّ غَيۡرَ بَاغٖ وَلَا عَادٖ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ

115. 115. He has made unlawful [255] to you only these: the dead [256], the blood [257], the flesh of swine [258], and that upon which other than Allah’s name has been pronounced [259] at the time of slaughtering. But whoever is compelled by necessity, without willful disobedience, nor transgressing limits [260], then surely, Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

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]."

Ayah 3

حُرِّمَتۡ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡمَيۡتَةُ وَٱلدَّمُ وَلَحۡمُ ٱلۡخِنزِيرِ وَمَآ أُهِلَّ لِغَيۡرِ ٱللَّهِ بِهِۦ وَٱلۡمُنۡخَنِقَةُ وَٱلۡمَوۡقُوذَةُ وَٱلۡمُتَرَدِّيَةُ وَٱلنَّطِيحَةُ وَمَآ أَكَلَ ٱلسَّبُعُ إِلَّا مَا ذَكَّيۡتُمۡ وَمَا ذُبِحَ عَلَى ٱلنُّصُبِ وَأَن تَسۡتَقۡسِمُواْ بِٱلۡأَزۡلَٰمِۚ ذَٰلِكُمۡ فِسۡقٌۗ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ يَئِسَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِن دِينِكُمۡ فَلَا تَخۡشَوۡهُمۡ وَٱخۡشَوۡنِۚ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ أَكۡمَلۡتُ لَكُمۡ دِينَكُمۡ وَأَتۡمَمۡتُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ نِعۡمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ ٱلۡإِسۡلَٰمَ دِينٗاۚ فَمَنِ ٱضۡطُرَّ فِي مَخۡمَصَةٍ غَيۡرَ مُتَجَانِفٖ لِّإِثۡمٖ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ

3. You are forbidden (to eat) the dead [12], and blood, and the flesh of swine [13], and that on which any name other than Allah has been invoked [14] at the time of slaughtering, and that which dies by strangulation, and that which is beaten to death [15], and that killed by falling, and that which is gored, and that which has been partly eaten by a wild animal—except what you (are able to) slaughter properly [16]—and that which is slaughtered at altars [17], and that on which you divide by drawing lots with arrows [18]. All that is an act of sin. Today, the disbelievers have despaired of (harming) your religion [19], so do not fear them, but fear Me. Today, I have perfected your religion for you [20], completed My favor upon you [21], and have chosen Islam as your religion [22]. But whoever is forced by extreme hunger, without intending to sin [23], then indeed, Allah is Forgiving, Merciful [24].
