Verse 36

وَٱلْبُدْنَ And the camels and cattle جَعَلْنَـٰهَا We have made them لَكُم for you مِّن among شَعَـٰٓئِرِ (the) Symbols ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah لَكُمْ for you فِيهَا therein خَيْرٌۭ ۖ (is) good فَٱذْكُرُوا۟ So mention ٱسْمَ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهَا over them صَوَآفَّ ۖ (when) lined up فَإِذَا and when وَجَبَتْ are down جُنُوبُهَا their sides فَكُلُوا۟ then eat مِنْهَا from them وَأَطْعِمُوا۟ and feed ٱلْقَانِعَ the needy who do not ask وَٱلْمُعْتَرَّ ۚ and the needy who ask كَذَٰلِكَ Thus سَخَّرْنَـٰهَا We have subjected them لَكُمْ to you لَعَلَّكُمْ so that you may تَشْكُرُونَ be grateful ٣٦

And the camels and cattle We have appointed for you as among the symbols [i.e., rites] of Allāh; for you therein is good. So mention the name of Allāh upon them when lined up [for sacrifice]; and when they are [lifeless] on their sides, then eat from them and feed the needy [who does not seek aid] and the beggar. Thus have We subjected them to you that you may be grateful.
