6. Surah Al-An'am (The Cattles)


1-30 | 31-60 | 61-90 | 91-120 | 121-150 | 151-165

121. And eat not of that whereon Allah's name has not been mentioned, for lo! it is abomination. Lo! the devils do inspire you minions to dispute with you. But if you obey them, you will be in truth idolaters.
122. Is he who was dead and We have raised him unto life, and set for him a light wherein he walks among men, as him whose similitude is in utter darkness whence he cannot emerge? Thus is their conduct made fair-seeming for the disbelievers.
123. And thus have We made in every city great ones of its wicked ones, that they should plot therein. They do but plot against themselves, though they perceive not.
124. And when a token comes unto them, they say: We will not believe till we are given that which Allah's messengers are given. Allah knows best with whom to place His message. Humiliation from Allah and heavy punishment will smite the guilty for their scheming.
125. And whomsoever it is Allah's will to guide, He expands his bosom unto the Surrender, and whomsoever it is His will to send astray, He makes his bosom close and narrow as if he were engaged in sheer ascent. Thus Allah lays ignominy upon those who believe not.
126. This is the path of your Lord, a straight path. We have detailed Our revelations for a people who take heed.
127. For them is the abode of peace with their Lord. He will be their Protecting Friend because of what they used to do.
128. In the day when He will gather them together (He will say): O you assembly of the jinn! Many of humankind did you seduce. And their adherents among humankind will say: Our Lord! We enjoyed one another, but now we have arrived at the appointed term which You appointed for us. He will say: Fire is your home. Abide therein for ever, save him whom Allah wills (to deliver). Lo! your Lord is Wise, Aware {Al-'Alim}.
129. Thus We let some of the wrong-doers have power over others because of what they are wont to earn.
130. O you assembly of the jinn and humankind! Came there not unto you messengers of your own who recounted unto you My tokens and warned you of the meeting of this your Day? They will say: We testify against ourselves. And the life of the world beguiled them. And they testify against themselves that they were disbelievers.
131. This is because your Lord destroys not the townships arbitrarily while their people are unconscious (of the wrong they do).
132. For all there will be ranks from what they did. Your Lord is not unaware of what they do.
133. Your Lord is the Absolute, the Lord of Mercy. If He will, He can remove you and can cause what He will to follow after you, even as He raised you from the seed of other folk.
134. Lo! that which you are promised will surely come to pass, and you cannot escape.
135. Say (O Muhammad) : O my people! Work according to your power. Lo! I too am working. Thus you will come to know for which of us will be the happy sequel. Lo! the wrong- doers will not be successful.
136. They assign unto Allah, of the crops and cattle which He created, a portion, and they say: "This is Allah's"--in their make-believe--"and this is for (His) partners in regard to us." Thus that which (they assign) unto His partners in them reaches not Allah and that which (they assign) unto Allah goes to their (so-called) partners. Evil is their ordinance.
137. Thus have their (so-called) partners (of Allah) made the killing of their children to seem fair unto many of the idolaters, that they may ruin them and make their faith obscure for them. Had Allah willed (it otherwise), they had not done so. So leave them alone with their devices.
138. And they say: Such cattle and crops are forbidden. No one is to eat of them save whom We will--in their make-believe--cattle whose backs are forbidden, cattle over which they mention not the name of Allah. (All that is) a lie against Him. He will repay them for that which they invent.
139. And they say: That which is in the bellies of such cattle is reserved for our males and is forbidden to our wives; but if it be born dead, then they (all) may be partakers thereof. He will reward them for their attribution (ordinances unto Him). Lo, He is Wise, Aware {Al-'Alim}.
140. They are losers who besottedl have slain their children without knowledge, and have forbidden that which Allah bestowed upon them, inventing a lie against Allah. They indeed have gone astray and are not guided.
141. He it is Who produces gardens trellised and untrellised, and the date-palm, and crops of divers flavor, and the olive and the pomegranate, like and unlike. Eat you of the fruit thereof when it fruits, and pay the due thereof upon the harvest day, and be not prodigal. Lo! Allah loves not the prodigals.
142. And of the cattle (He produces) some for burdens, some for food. Eat of that which Allah has bestowed upon you, and follow not the footsteps of the devil, for lo! he is an open foe to you.
143. Eight pairs: Of the sheep twain, and of the goats twain. Say: Has He forbidden the two males or the two females, or that which the wombs of the two females contain? Expound to me (the case) with knowledge, if you are truthful.
144. And of the camels twain and of the oxen twain. Say: Has He forbidden the two males or the two females, or that which the wombs of the two females contain; or were you by to witness when Allah commanded you (all) this? Then who does greater wrong than he who devises a lie concerning Allah, that he may lead mankind astray without knowledge. Lo! Allah guides not wrongdoing folk.
145. Say: I find not in that which is revealed unto me aught prohibited to an eater that he eat thereof, except it be carrion, or blood poured forth, or swineflesh for that verily is foul or the abomination which was immolated to the name of other than Allah. But whoso is compelled (thereto), neither craving nor transgressing, (for him) lo ! your Lord is Forgiving, Merciful.
146. Unto those who are Jews We forbade every animal with claws. And of the oxen and the sheep forbade We unto them the fat thereof save that upon the backs or the entrails, or that which is mixed with the bone. That We awarded them for their rebellion. And lo! We verily are Truthful.
147. So if they give the lie to you (Muhammad), say: Your Lord is a Lord of all- embracing mercy, and His wrath will never be withdrawn from guilty folk.
148. They who are idolaters will say: Had Allah willed, we had not ascribed (unto Him) partners neither had our fathers, nor had we forbidden aught. Thus did those who were before them give the lie (to Allah's messengers) till they tasted of the fear of Us. Say: Have you any knowledge that you can adduce for us? Lo! you follow naught but an opinion. Lo! you do but guess.
149. Say--For Allah's is the final argument--Had He willed He could indeed have guided all of you.
150. Say: Come, bring your witnesses who can bear witness that Allah forbade (all) this. And if they bear witness, do not you bear witness with them. Follow you not the whims of those who deny Our revelations, those who believe not in the Hereafter and deem (others) equal with their Lord.
