Say (O’ Muhammad):”I do not find in that Message which has been revealed to me by inspiration anything (meat) forbidden to be eaten by one who wishes to eat it, unless it be a dead meat [cadaver], or blood poured forth (by slaughtering or the like), or the flesh of the swine (pork); for it is surely an abomination an impure or impious (unlawful) meat (of an animal) which is slaughtered as a sacrifice invoked for others than God (i.e. slaughtered for idols, or God’s Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering). But (even so) if whosoever a person is forced by necessity without willful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits (for him) certainly your Lord is Oft-Forgiving- Most Merciful”. (145)  

قُلْ لَا أَجِدُ فِي مَا أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ مُحَرَّمًا عَلَى طَاعِمٍ يَطْعَمُهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ مَيْتَةً أَوْ دَمًا مَسْفُوحًا أَوْ لَحْمَ خِنْزِيرٍ فَإِنَّهُ رِجْسٌ أَوْ فِسْقًا أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ بِهِ فَمَنِ اضْطُرَّ غَيْرَ بَاغٍ وَلَا عَادٍ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ (145)

And for those who are Jews (who followed the Jewish Law), We forbade every (animal) with undivided hoof, and We forbade for them the fat of the ox and the sheep, except what adheres to their backs or their entrails, or what is mixed up with a bone. Thus We recompensed them for their willful rebellion and disobedience; and verily, We are Truthful (In Our ordinance). (146)

وَعَلَى الَّذِينَ هَادُوا حَرَّمْنَا كُلَّ ذِي ظُفُرٍ وَمِنَ الْبَقَرِ وَالْغَنَمِ حَرَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ شُحُومَهُمَا إِلَّا مَا حَمَلَتْ ظُهُورُهُمَا أَوِ الْحَوَايَا أَوْ مَا اخْتَلَطَ بِعَظْمٍ ذَلِكَ جَزَيْنَاهُمْ بِبَغْيِهِمْ وَإِنَّا لَصَادِقُونَ (146)

If they (Jews) accuse you of falsehood and deny you [O’ Muhammad PPBUH] say:”your Lord is the Owner of Vast Mercy all-embracing; but His wrath will never be turned back from the people who are in guilt (criminals-polytheists-sinners). (147)

فَإِنْ كَذَّبُوكَ فَقُلْ رَبُّكُمْ ذُو رَحْمَةٍ وَاسِعَةٍ وَلَا يُرَدُّ بَأْسُهُ عَنِ الْقَوْمِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ (147)

Those who took partners (in worship) with God will say:”If God had Willed/Wished, we would not have taken partners (in worship)with Him, nor would our fathers, nor we would have taken taboos or forbidden anything (against His Will)”. Likewise did their ancestors argued falsely, until they Our wrath. Say:”have you any (certain) knowledge? If so, produce it before us! Verily, you follow nothing but conjecture, and you do nothing but lie/fabricate lies”. (148)   

سَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوا لَوْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ مَا أَشْرَكْنَا وَلَا آَبَاؤُنَا وَلَا حَرَّمْنَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ كَذَلِكَ كَذَّبَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ حَتَّى ذَاقُوا بَأْسَنَا قُلْ هَلْ عِنْدَكُمْ مِنْ عِلْمٍ فَتُخْرِجُوهُ لَنَا إِنْ تَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا الظَّنَّ وَإِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا تَخْرُصُونَ (148)

Say:”With God is the perfect proof and argument that reaches home: if it had been His Will, He would had been guided you all” (149)

قُلْ فَلِلَّهِ الْحُجَّةُ الْبَالِغَةُ فَلَوْ شَاءَ لَهَدَاكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ (149)

Say:”Bring forward your witnesses, who can testify to proof that God has forbidden so and son.” If they –bring such witness and- testify, do not [O’ Muhammad PPBUH] testify with them. And you should not follow the vain desires of such as treat Our Signs as falsehood, and such as believe not in the Hereafter, and they hold others equal with their Guardian Lord”. (150)   

قُلْ هَلُمَّ شُهَدَاءَكُمُ الَّذِينَ يَشْهَدُونَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ هَذَا فَإِنْ شَهِدُوا فَلَا تَشْهَدْ مَعَهُمْ وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ أَهْوَاءَ الَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا بِآَيَاتِنَا وَالَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآَخِرَةِ وَهُمْ بِرَبِّهِمْ يَعْدِلُونَ (150)

Say [O’ Muhammad PPBUH]:”Come, I will rehearse /recite what God has (really) prohibited you from: join not anything as equal with Him, be good and dutiful to your parents, do not kill your children on a plea of want and poverty;- We provide sustenance for you and for them;- do not come near to the shameful deeds-dissolution- whether (committed) openly or secretly;- and do not kill/ take the life, which is forbidden, and God has made it sacred –except by way of justice and law. This He commanded you that you may learn wisdom and understand”. (151)    

قُلْ تَعَالَوْا أَتْلُ مَا حَرَّمَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ أَلَّا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ إِحْسَانًا وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا أَوْلَادَكُمْ مِنْ إِمْلَاقٍ نَحْنُ نَرْزُقُكُمْ وَإِيَّاهُمْ وَلَا تَقْرَبُوا الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ذَلِكُمْ وَصَّاكُمْ بِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ (151)

“And come not near to the orphan’s property, except to improve it, until he (or she) attain the age of full strength; and give measure and weight with (full) justice;- We do not place burden on any person/soul , but that which he can bear;- and whenever you speak (i.e. give your judgment between men or give evidence), speak justly and say the truth even if a near relative is concerned; and the Covenant of God. Thus He commanded you, that you may remember.” (152)  

وَلَا تَقْرَبُوا مَالَ الْيَتِيمِ إِلَّا بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ أَشُدَّهُ وَأَوْفُوا الْكَيْلَ وَالْمِيزَانَ بِالْقِسْطِ لَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا وَإِذَا قُلْتُمْ فَاعْدِلُوا وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَا قُرْبَى وَبِعَهْدِ اللَّهِ أَوْفُوا ذَلِكُمْ وَصَّاكُمْ بِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ (152)

“And verily, this is My Way(Strait Path-verses 151-152) follow it, and do not follow (other) paths; for they will separate and scatter you about from His (great) Path: that is what He Has ordained and commanded you, that you may become pious and be righteous.” (153)

وَأَنَّ هَذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ ذَلِكُمْ وَصَّاكُمْ بِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ (153)

Moreover, We gave Moses the Book (the Torah), completing (Our Favor) to those who would do right, and explaining all things -in details- and a guidance and mercy, that they may believe in the Meeting with their Lord. (154)   

ثُمَّ آَتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ تَمَامًا عَلَى الَّذِي أَحْسَنَ وَتَفْصِيلًا لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً لَعَلَّهُمْ بِلِقَاءِ رَبِّهِمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ (154)

And this is a blessed Book (the Qur’an) which We have sent down, so you follow it and be pious and righteous ( i.e. fear God) that you may receive Mercy. (155)

وَهَذَا كِتَابٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهُ مُبَارَكٌ فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَاتَّقُوا لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ (155)

Lest you (Pagan Arabs) should say:”The Book was sent down only to two peoples/sects before us (the Jews and Christians), and for our part, we –in fact- have remained unaware/unacquainted with all that they learned by assiduous study.” (156)   

أَنْ تَقُولُوا إِنَّمَا أُنْزِلَ الْكِتَابُ عَلَى طَائِفَتَيْنِ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا وَإِنْ كُنَّا عَنْ دِرَاسَتِهِمْ لَغَافِلِينَ (156)

Or lest you should say:”if the Book had only been sent down to us, we would have followed its guidance, and surely we would have been better guided than they are”. So, now has come to you a Clear Signs (the Qur’an) from your Lord, and a guide and a Mercy: then who would does more wrong than the one who rejects God’s Signs, and turns away there-from? We shall requite those who turn away from Our Signs with a dreadful penalty and evil torment, because of their turning away (from them). (157)    

أَوْ تَقُولُوا لَوْ أَنَّا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْنَا الْكِتَابُ لَكُنَّا أَهْدَى مِنْهُمْ فَقَدْ جَاءَكُمْ بَيِّنَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةٌ فَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنْ كَذَّبَ بِآَيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَصَدَفَ عَنْهَا سَنَجْزِي الَّذِينَ يَصْدِفُونَ عَنْ آَيَاتِنَا سُوءَ الْعَذَابِ بِمَا كَانُوا يَصْدِفُونَ (157)

Are they (then) waiting to see if the angels comes to them, or your Lord (Himself), or certain parts of your Lord’s Signs! The day that certain parts of the Signs of your Lord do come, no good will it do to a soul/person to believe in them then, if it did not believed in them before, nor earned righteousness through his Faith. Say:”Wait you! We too are waiting”. (158)

هَلْ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ رَبُّكَ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ بَعْضُ آَيَاتِ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِي بَعْضُ آَيَاتِ رَبِّكَ لَا يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ آَمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمَانِهَا خَيْرًا قُلِ انْتَظِرُوا إِنَّا مُنْتَظِرُونَ (158)

Verily, those who divide their religion and break up into sects; you [O’ Muhammad PPBUH] have no concern (or part) with them in the least. Their affair is only with God, Who then Will -in the end- tell them the truth of all that they used to do. 159 

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَرَّقُوا دِينَهُمْ وَكَانُوا شِيَعًا لَسْتَ مِنْهُمْ فِي شَيْءٍ إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ ثُمَّ يُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ (159)

He whoever does good deed, shall have ten times as much thereof to his credit, and whoever brings and do evil deed shall only be recompensed according to his evil thereof, and they will not be wronged. (160) 

مَنْ جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا وَمَنْ جَاءَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ فَلَا يُجْزَى إِلَّا مِثْلَهَا وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ (160)

Say [O’ Muhammad PPBUH!]:”Verily, truly my Lord has guided me to a Strait Path, a right religion, the path Trod by Ibrahim/Abraham, the true in Faith, and he certainly was not of the polytheists.” (161)   

قُلْ إِنَّنِي هَدَانِي رَبِّي إِلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ دِينًا قِيَمًا مِلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ (161)

Say [O’ Muhammad PPBUH !]:”Verily, truly my prayer, and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death, are all for God, the Cherisher of the worlds. (162)

قُلْ إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ (162)

“He has no partner, and of this I have been commanded, and I am the first of the Muslims (who bow to His Will. (163)

لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَبِذَلِكَ أُمِرْتُ وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ (163)

Say:” Shall I seek a Lord for (my) Cherisher other than God; when He is the Cherisher of all things (that is exists)? Every soul draws the meed of its acts (of sins)on none but itself; and no bearer of burdens shall bear the burden of another. Then your goal is towards your Lord (your return), so He will tell you the truth of the things wherein you are disputed. (164)   

قُلْ أَغَيْرَ اللَّهِ أَبْغِي رَبًّا وَهُوَ رَبُّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَلَا تَكْسِبُ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ إِلَّا عَلَيْهَا وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَى ثُمَّ إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَيُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ فِيهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ (164)

And it is He Who has made you (His) agents (generations coming after generations) replacing each other on the earth. And He has raised you in ranks, some above others, that He may try you in the gifts He has given you. Surely, your Lord is Swift/Quick in punishment and retributions; yet He is certainly is indeed is Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful . (165)

وَهُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَكُمْ خَلَائِفَ الْأَرْضِ وَرَفَعَ بَعْضَكُمْ فَوْقَ بَعْضٍ دَرَجَاتٍ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ فِي مَا آَتَاكُمْ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ سَرِيعُ الْعِقَابِ وَإِنَّهُ لَغَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ (165)
