[6:119]
How should ye not eat of
that over which the name of Allah hath been mentioned, when He hath explained
unto you that which is forbidden unto you unless ye are compelled thereto. But lo! many are led astray by their own
lusts through ignorance. Lo! thy Lord, He is Best
Aware of the transgressors.
[6:120]
Forsake the outwardness of sin and the
inwardness thereof. Lo! those who garner sin will be
awarded that which they have earned.
[6:121]
And eat not of that whereon Allah’s name hath
not been mentioned, for lo! it is abomination. Lo! the devils do inspire their minions to dispute with you. But
if ye obey them, ye will be in truth idolaters.
[6:122]
Is he who was dead and We have raised him unto
life, and set for him a light wherein he walketh among men, as him whose similitude
is in utter darkness whence he cannot emerge ? Thus is their conduct made
fairseeming for the disbelievers.
[6:123]
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.
[6:124]
And when a token cometh unto them, they say: We
will not believe till we are given that which Allah’s messengers are given.
Allah knoweth best with whom to place His message. Humiliation from Allah and
heavy punishment will smite the guilty for their scheming.
