يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنوا لَيَبلُوَنَّكُمُ اللَّهُ بِشَيءٍ مِنَ الصَّيدِ تَنالُهُ أَيديكُم وَرِماحُكُم لِيَعلَمَ اللَّهُ مَن يَخافُهُ بِالغَيبِ ۚ فَمَنِ اعتَدىٰ بَعدَ ذٰلِكَ فَلَهُ عَذابٌ أَليمٌ

O you who believe, God will test you through some game animals that your hands and spears obtain. In this manner, God distinguishes those who fear Him unseen. Whoever transgresses after this will have a severe punishment.

يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنوا لا تَقتُلُوا الصَّيدَ وَأَنتُم حُرُمٌ ۚ وَمَن قَتَلَهُ مِنكُم مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزاءٌ مِثلُ ما قَتَلَ مِنَ النَّعَمِ يَحكُمُ بِهِ ذَوا عَدلٍ مِنكُم هَديًا بالِغَ الكَعبَةِ أَو كَفّارَةٌ طَعامُ مَساكينَ أَو عَدلُ ذٰلِكَ صِيامًا لِيَذوقَ وَبالَ أَمرِهِ ۗ عَفَا اللَّهُ عَمّا سَلَفَ ۚ وَمَن عادَ فَيَنتَقِمُ اللَّهُ مِنهُ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَزيزٌ ذُو انتِقامٍ

O you who believe, don’t kill game while you are in the state of pilgrimage sanctity. Whoever among you kills it intentionally, the penalty is a domestic animal, equivalent to the one he killed, judged by two just men among you, to be delivered to the Kaaba as an offering, or expiation by feeding the needy, or its equivalent in fasting, so that he may taste the consequences of his action. God has pardoned what is past. But whoever repeats it, God will take retribution from him. God is Mighty, Capable of Retribution.

أُحِلَّ لَكُم صَيدُ البَحرِ وَطَعامُهُ مَتاعًا لَكُم وَلِلسَّيّارَةِ ۖ وَحُرِّمَ عَلَيكُم صَيدُ البَرِّ ما دُمتُم حُرُمًا ۗ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ الَّذي إِلَيهِ تُحشَرونَ

The catch of the sea and its food is permissible for you, a provision for you and for travelers. But you are forbidden to hunt on land while you are in the state of pilgrimage sanctity. Fear God, before whom you will be gathered.

جَعَلَ اللَّهُ الكَعبَةَ البَيتَ الحَرامَ قِيامًا لِلنّاسِ وَالشَّهرَ الحَرامَ وَالهَديَ وَالقَلائِدَ ۚ ذٰلِكَ لِتَعلَموا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَعلَمُ ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَما فِي الأَرضِ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَيءٍ عَليمٌ

God has designated the Kaaba, the Sacred House, as a sanctuary for people, along with the sacred months, the sacrificial animals, and the garlands. This is so that you may know that God knows what’s in the heavens and on earth, and that God is All-Knowing of all things.

اعلَموا أَنَّ اللَّهَ شَديدُ العِقابِ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ غَفورٌ رَحيمٌ

Know that God is severe in penalty, yet also Forgiving and Merciful.

قُل لا يَستَوِي الخَبيثُ وَالطَّيِّبُ وَلَو أَعجَبَكَ كَثرَةُ الخَبيثِ ۚ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ يا أُولِي الأَلبابِ لَعَلَّكُم تُفلِحونَ

Say, “Insincerity and sincerity aren’t equal, even if the abundance of insincerity may impress you. So, revere God, O people of discernment, so you may thrive.”

يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنوا لا تَسأَلوا عَن أَشياءَ إِن تُبدَ لَكُم تَسُؤكُم وَإِن تَسأَلوا عَنها حينَ يُنَزَّلُ القُرآنُ تُبدَ لَكُم عَفَا اللَّهُ عَنها ۗ وَاللَّهُ غَفورٌ حَليمٌ

O you who believe, don’t inquire about matters that, if they were made apparent to you, may distress you. But if you ask about them while the Quran is being revealed, they will be made clear to you. God has pardoned that; God is Forgiving and Forbearing.

قَد سَأَلَها قَومٌ مِن قَبلِكُم ثُمَّ أَصبَحوا بِها كافِرينَ

Some people before you did ask such questions, and then became unbelievers because of it.

ما جَعَلَ اللَّهُ مِن بَحيرَةٍ وَلا سائِبَةٍ وَلا وَصيلَةٍ وَلا حامٍ ۙ وَلـٰكِنَّ الَّذينَ كَفَروا يَفتَرونَ عَلَى اللَّهِ الكَذِبَ ۖ وَأَكثَرُهُم لا يَعقِلونَ

God didn’t institute the superstitions of Bahirah, Saibah, Wasilah, or Hami. Those who disbelieve invent lies about God, and most of them lack understanding.

وَإِذا قيلَ لَهُم تَعالَوا إِلىٰ ما أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ وَإِلَى الرَّسولِ قالوا حَسبُنا ما وَجَدنا عَلَيهِ آباءَنا ۚ أَوَلَو كانَ آباؤُهُم لا يَعلَمونَ شَيئًا وَلا يَهتَدونَ

When called to what God revealed and to the Messenger, they say, “What we found our ancestors following is good enough for us.” Even if their ancestors had no knowledge or guidance?
