Sahih International
Those  will  have  lost  who  killed  their  children  in  foolishness  without  knowledge  and prohibited  what Allah had  provided  for  them,  inventing  untruth  about Allah .  They have  gone  astray  and  were  not  [rightly]  guided.
Sahih International
And  He  it  is  who  causes  gardens  to  grow,  [both]  trellised  and  untrellised,  and  palm trees  and  crops  of  different  [kinds  of]  food  and  olives  and  pomegranates,  similar  and dissimilar.  Eat  of  [each  of]  its  fruit  when  it  yields  and  give  its  due  [zakah]  on  the  day  of its  harvest.  And  be  not  excessive.  Indeed,  He  does  not  like  those  who  commit  excess.
Sahih International
And  of  the  grazing  livestock  are  carriers  [of  burdens]  and  those  [too]  small.  Eat  of  what Allah has  provided  for  you  and  do  not  follow  the  footsteps  of  Satan.  Indeed,  he  is  to you  a  clear  enemy.
Sahih International
[They  are]  eight  mates  -   of  the  sheep,  two  and  of  the  goats,  two.  Say,  "Is  it  the  two males  He  has  forbidden  or  the  two  females  or  that  which  the  wombs  of  the  two  females contain?  Inform  me  with  knowledge,  if  you  should  be  truthful."
Sahih International
And  of  the  camels,  two  and  of  the  cattle,  two.  Say,  "Is  it  the  two  males  He  has forbidden  or  the  two  females  or  that  which  the  wombs  of  the  two  females  contain?  Or were  you  witnesses  when Allah charged  you  with  this?  Then  who  is  more  unjust  than one  who  invents  a  lie  about Allah to  mislead  the  people  by  [something]  other  than knowledge?  Indeed, Allah does  not  guide  the  wrongdoing  people."
Sahih International
Say,  "I  do  not  find  within  that  which  was  revealed  to  me  [anything]  forbidden  to  one who  would  eat  it  unless  it  be  a  dead  animal  or  blood  spilled  out  or  the  flesh  of  swine  - for  indeed,  it  is  impure  -   or  it  be  [that  slaughtered  in]  disobedience,  dedicated  to  other than Allah .  But  whoever  is  forced  [by  necessity],  neither  desiring  [it]  nor  transgressing [its  limit],  then  indeed,  your  Lord  is  Forgiving  and  Merciful."
Sahih International
And  to  those  who  are  Jews  We  prohibited  every  animal  of  uncloven  hoof;  and  of  the cattle  and  the  sheep  We  prohibited  to  them  their  fat,  except  what  adheres  to  their backs  or  the  entrails  or  what  is  joined  with  bone.  [By]  that  We  repaid  them  for  their injustice.  And  indeed,  We  are  truthful.
Sahih International
So  if  they  deny  you,  [O  Muhammad],  say,  "Your  Lord  is  the  possessor  of  vast  mercy; but  His  punishment  cannot  be  repelled  from  the  people  who  are  criminals."
Sahih International
Those  who  associated  with Allah will  say,  "If Allah had  willed,  we  would  not  have associated  [anything]  and  neither  would  our  fathers,  nor  would  we  have  prohibited anything."  Likewise  did  those  before  deny  until  they  tasted  Our  punishment.  Say,  "Do you  have  any  knowledge  that  you  can  produce  for  us?  You  follow  not  except assumption,  and  you  are  not  but  falsifying."
Sahih International
Say,  "With Allah is  the  far-reaching  argument.  If  He  had  willed,  He  would  have  guided you  all."
Sahih International
Say,  [O  Muhammad],  "Bring  forward  your  witnesses  who  will  testify  that Allah has prohibited  this."  And  if  they  testify,  do  not  testify  with  them.  And  do  not  follow  the desires  of  those  who  deny  Our  verses  and  those  who  do  not  believe  in  the  Hereafter, while  they  equate  [others]  with  their  Lord.
Sahih International
Say,  "Come,  I  will  recite  what  your  Lord  has  prohibited  to  you.  [He  commands]  that you  not  associate  anything  with  Him,  and  to  parents,  good  treatment,  and  do  not  kill your  children  out  of  poverty;  We  will  provide  for  you  and  them.  And  do  not  approach immoralities  -   what  is  apparent  of  them  and  what  is  concealed.  And  do  not  kill  the soul  which Allah has  forbidden  [to  be  killed]  except  by  [legal]  right.  This  has  He instructed  you  that  you  may  use  reason."
Sahih International
And  do  not  approach  the  orphan's  property  except  in  a  way  that  is  best  until  he reaches  maturity.  And  give  full  measure  and  weight  in  justice.  We  do  not  charge  any soul  except  [with  that  within]  its  capacity.  And  when  you  testify,  be  just,  even  if  [it concerns]  a  near  relative.  And  the  covenant  of Allah fulfill.  This  has  He  instructed  you that  you  may  remember.
