Basic HTML Version
truly believe in His revelations. And why should you not eat of that on
which the name ofAllah is mentioned when He has already made plain
to youwhat is forbidden, except when you are constrained?
Many are those that are misled through ignorance by their fancies:
but your Lord best knows the transgressors.
Sin neither openly nor in secret. Those that commit sin shall be
punished for their sins.
Do not eat of any flesh that has not been consecrated in the name of
Allah; for that is sinful.
The devils will inspire their friends to argue with you. If you obey
them, you shall indeed become polytheists.
Can the dead man whomWe have raised to life and given a light with
which he may be guided among men, be compared to him who
blunders about in darkness from which he will never emerge? Thus
their foul acts seem fair to the unbelievers.
And thus we have placed in every town its arch-transgressors to
scheme there. But they scheme only against themselves, though they
may not perceive it. When a sign is revealed to them they say: 'We will
not believe in it unless we are given that which Allah's apostles have
been given.' ButAllah knows best whom to entrust withHis message.
Allah will humiliate the transgressors and mete out to them a
grievous punishment for their scheming. If Allah wills to guide a man,
He opens his bosom to Islam. But if He pleases to leave him in error, He
makes his bosom small and narrow as though he was climbing up to the
sky. ThusAllah lays the scourge on the unbelievers.
