S:  Forbidden to you is that which dies of itself, and blood, and flesh of swine, and that on which any other name than that of Allah has been invoked, and the strangled (animal) and that beaten to death, and that killed by a fall and that killed by being smitten with the horn, and that which wild beasts have eaten, except what you slaughter, and what is sacrificed on stones set up (for idols) and that you divide by the arrows; that is a transgression.  This day have those who disbelieve despaired of your religion, so fear them not, and fear Me.  This day have I perfected for you your religion and completed My favor on you and chosen for you Islam as a religion; but whoever is compelled by hunger, not inclining willfully to sin, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

005.004 Y:  They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food).  Say:  lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure:  and what ye have taught your trained hunting animals (to catch) in the manner directed to you by Allah:  eat what they catch for you, but pronounce the name of Allah over it:  and fear Allah; for Allah is swift in taking account.

P:  They ask thee (O Muhammad) what is made lawful for them.  Say:  (all) good things are made lawful for you.  And those beasts and birds of prey which ye have trained as hounds are trained, ye teach them that which Allah taught you; so eat of that which they catch for you and mention Allah’s name upon it, and observe your duty to Allah.  Lo!  Allah is swift to take account.

S:  They ask you as to what is allowed to them.  Say:  The good things are allowed to you, and what you have taught the beasts and birds of prey, training them to hunt—­ you teach them of what Allah has taught you—­ so eat of that which they catch for you and mention the name of Allah over it; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; surely Allah is swift in reckoning.

005.005 Y:  This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you.  The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before your time,- when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work, and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).

P:  This day are (all) good things made lawful for you.  The food of those who have received the Scripture is lawful for you, and your food is lawful for them.  And so are the virtuous women of the believers and the virtuous women of those who received the Scripture before you (lawful for you) when ye give them their marriage portions and live with them in honour, not in fornication, nor taking them as secret concubines.  Whoso denieth the faith, his work is vain and he will be among the losers in the Hereafter.
