Sura Al-Ma'idah from 3 to 5


3. Forbidden to you ( for food ) are: Al- Maitah ( the dead animals - cattle - beast not slaughtered ) , blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which Allâh’s Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering, ( that which has been slaughtered as a sacrifice for others than Allâh, or has been slaughtered for idols ) and that which has been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by the goring of horns - and that which has been ( partly ) eaten by a wild animal - unless you are able to slaughter it ( before its death ) - and that which is sacrificed ( slaughtered ) on An- Nusub [ 1 ] ( stone- altars ) . ( Forbidden ) also is to use arrows seeking luck or decision; ( all ) that is Fisqun ( disobedience of Allâh and sin ) . This day, those who disbelieved have given up all hope of your religion; so fear them not, but fear Me. This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islâm as your religion. But as for him who is forced by severe hunger, with no inclination to sin ( such can eat these above mentioned meats ) , then surely, Allâh is Oft- Forgiving, Most Merciful.
4. They ask you ( O Muhammad ( saas ) ) what is lawful for them ( as food ) . Say: « Lawful unto you are At- Tayyibât [ all kind of Halâl ( lawful- good ) foods which Allâh has made lawful ( meat of slaughtered eatable animals, milk products, fats, vegetables and fruits ) ] . And those beasts and birds of prey which you have trained as hounds, training and teaching them ( to catch ) in the manner as directed to you by Allâh; so eat of what they catch for you, but pronounce the Name of Allâh over it, and fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is Swift in reckoning. »
5. Made lawful to you this day are At- Tayyibât [ all kinds of Halâl ( lawful ) foods, which Allâh has made lawful ( meat of slaughtered eatable animals, milk products, fats, vegetables and fruits ) ] . The food ( slaughtered cattle, eatable animals ) of the people of the Scripture ( Jews and Christians ) is lawful to you and yours is lawful to them. ( Lawful to you in marriage ) are chaste women from the believers and chaste women from those who were given the Scripture ( Jews and Christians ) before your time when you have given their due Mahr ( bridal- money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage ) , desiring chastity ( i.e. taking them in legal wedlock ) not committing illegal sexual intercourse, nor taking them as girl- friends. And whosoever disbelieves in Faith [ i.e. in the Oneness of Allâh and in all the other Articles of Faith i.e. His ( Allâh’s ) Angels, His Holy Books, His Messengers, the Day of Resurrection and Al- Qadar ( Divine Preordainments ) ] , then fruitless is his work; and in the Hereafter he will be among the losers.
