وَمَا And what لَكُمْ for you أَلَّا that not تَأْكُلُوا۟ you eat مِمَّا of what ذُكِرَ has been mentioned ٱسْمُ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهِ on it وَقَدْ when indeed فَصَّلَ He (has) explained in detail لَكُم to you مَّا what حَرَّمَ He (has) forbidden عَلَيْكُمْ to you إِلَّا except مَا what ٱضْطُرِرْتُمْ you are compelled إِلَيْهِ ۗ to it وَإِنَّ And indeed كَثِيرًۭا many لَّيُضِلُّونَ surely lead astray بِأَهْوَآئِهِم by their (vain) desires بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍ ۗ knowledge إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord هُوَ He أَعْلَمُ (is) most knowing بِٱلْمُعْتَدِينَ of the transgressors ١١٩

And why should you not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has been mentioned while He has explained in detail to you what He has forbidden you, excepting that to which you are compelled. And indeed do many lead [others] astray through their [own] inclinations without knowledge. Indeed, your Lord - He is most knowing of the transgressors.

And leave [i.e., desist from] what is apparent of sin and what is concealed thereof. Indeed, those who earn [blame for] sin will be recompensed for that which they used to commit.

وَلَا And (do) not تَأْكُلُوا۟ eat مِمَّا of that لَمْ not يُذْكَرِ has been mentioned ٱسْمُ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهِ on it وَإِنَّهُۥ and indeed, it (is) لَفِسْقٌۭ ۗ grave disobedience وَإِنَّ And indeed ٱلشَّيَـٰطِينَ the devils لَيُوحُونَ inspire إِلَىٰٓ to أَوْلِيَآئِهِمْ their friends لِيُجَـٰدِلُوكُمْ ۖ so that they dispute with you وَإِنْ and if أَطَعْتُمُوهُمْ you obey them إِنَّكُمْ indeed, you لَمُشْرِكُونَ (would) be the polytheists ١٢١

And do not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has not been mentioned, for indeed, it is grave disobedience. And indeed do the devils inspire their allies [among men] to dispute with you. And if you were to obey them, indeed, you would be associators [of others with Him].

أَوَمَن Is (one) who كَانَ was مَيْتًۭا dead فَأَحْيَيْنَـٰهُ and We gave him life وَجَعَلْنَا and We made لَهُۥ for him نُورًۭا light يَمْشِى he walks بِهِۦ whereby فِى among ٱلنَّاسِ the people كَمَن like (one) who مَّثَلُهُۥ [similar to him] فِى (is) in ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ the darknesses لَيْسَ not بِخَارِجٍۢ he comes out مِّنْهَا ۚ of it كَذَٰلِكَ Thus زُيِّنَ is made fair-seeming لِلْكَـٰفِرِينَ to the disbelievers مَا what كَانُوا۟ they were يَعْمَلُونَ doing ١٢٢

And is one who was dead and We gave him life and made for him light by which to walk among the people like one who is in darkness, never to emerge therefrom? Thus it has been made pleasing to the disbelievers that which they were doing.

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus جَعَلْنَا We placed فِى in كُلِّ every قَرْيَةٍ city أَكَـٰبِرَ greatest مُجْرِمِيهَا (of) its criminals لِيَمْكُرُوا۟ so that they plot فِيهَا ۖ therein وَمَا And not يَمْكُرُونَ they plot إِلَّا except بِأَنفُسِهِمْ against themselves وَمَا and not يَشْعُرُونَ they perceive ١٢٣

And thus We have placed within every city the greatest of its criminals to conspire therein. But they conspire not except against themselves, and they perceive [it] not.

وَإِذَا And when جَآءَتْهُمْ comes to them ءَايَةٌۭ a Sign قَالُوا۟ they say لَن Never نُّؤْمِنَ we will believe حَتَّىٰ until نُؤْتَىٰ we are given مِثْلَ like مَآ what أُوتِىَ was given رُسُلُ (to the) Messengers ٱللَّهِ ۘ (of) Allah ٱللَّهُ Allah أَعْلَمُ knows best حَيْثُ where يَجْعَلُ He places رِسَالَتَهُۥ ۗ His Message سَيُصِيبُ Will afflict ٱلَّذِينَ those who أَجْرَمُوا۟ committed crimes صَغَارٌ a humiliation عِندَ from ٱللَّهِ Allah وَعَذَابٌۭ and a punishment شَدِيدٌۢ severe بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَمْكُرُونَ plot ١٢٤

And when a sign comes to them, they say, "Never will we believe until we are given like that which was given to the messengers of Allāh." Allāh is most knowing of where [i.e., with whom] He places His message. There will afflict those who committed crimes debasement before Allāh and severe punishment for what they used to conspire.
