وَقَالُوا۟ And they say هَـٰذِهِۦٓ These أَنْعَـٰمٌۭ (are) cattle وَحَرْثٌ and crops حِجْرٌۭ forbidden لَّا no (one) يَطْعَمُهَآ can eat them إِلَّا except مَن whom نَّشَآءُ we will بِزَعْمِهِمْ by their claim وَأَنْعَـٰمٌ And cattle حُرِّمَتْ forbidden ظُهُورُهَا (are) their backs وَأَنْعَـٰمٌۭ and cattle لَّا not يَذْكُرُونَ they mention ٱسْمَ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهَا on it ٱفْتِرَآءً (as) an invention عَلَيْهِ ۚ against Him سَيَجْزِيهِم He will recompense them بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَفْتَرُونَ invent ١٣٨

And they say, "These animals and crops are forbidden; no one may eat from them except whom we will," by their claim. And there are those [camels] whose backs are forbidden [by them] and those upon which the name of Allāh is not mentioned - [all of this] an invention of untruth about Him. He will punish them for what they were inventing.

وَقَالُوا۟ And they say مَا What فِى (is) in بُطُونِ (the) wombs هَـٰذِهِ (of) these ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ cattle خَالِصَةٌۭ (is) exclusively لِّذُكُورِنَا for our males وَمُحَرَّمٌ and forbidden عَلَىٰٓ on أَزْوَٰجِنَا ۖ our spouses وَإِن But if يَكُن is مَّيْتَةًۭ (born) dead فَهُمْ then they (all) فِيهِ in it شُرَكَآءُ ۚ (are) partners سَيَجْزِيهِمْ He will recompense them وَصْفَهُمْ ۚ (for) their attribution إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, He حَكِيمٌ (is) All-Wise عَلِيمٌۭ All-Knowing ١٣٩

And they say, "What is in the bellies of these animals is exclusively for our males and forbidden to our females. But if it is [born] dead, then all of them have shares therein." He will punish them for their description. Indeed, He is Wise and Knowing.

قَدْ Certainly خَسِرَ (are) lost ٱلَّذِينَ those who قَتَلُوٓا۟ killed أَوْلَـٰدَهُمْ their children سَفَهًۢا (in) foolishness بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍۢ knowledge وَحَرَّمُوا۟ and forbid مَا what رَزَقَهُمُ (bas been) provided (to) them ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah ٱفْتِرَآءً inventing (lies) عَلَى against ٱللَّهِ ۚ Allah قَدْ Certainly ضَلُّوا۟ they have gone astray وَمَا and not كَانُوا۟ they are مُهْتَدِينَ guided-ones ١٤٠

They will have lost who killed their children in foolishness without knowledge and prohibited what Allāh had provided for them, inventing untruth about Allāh. They have gone astray and were not [rightly] guided.

۞ وَهُوَ And He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One Who أَنشَأَ produced جَنَّـٰتٍۢ gardens مَّعْرُوشَـٰتٍۢ trellised وَغَيْرَ and other than مَعْرُوشَـٰتٍۢ trellised وَٱلنَّخْلَ and the date-palm وَٱلزَّرْعَ and the crops مُخْتَلِفًا diverse أُكُلُهُۥ (are) its taste وَٱلزَّيْتُونَ and the olives وَٱلرُّمَّانَ and the pomegranates مُتَشَـٰبِهًۭا similar وَغَيْرَ and other than مُتَشَـٰبِهٍۢ ۚ similar كُلُوا۟ Eat مِن of ثَمَرِهِۦٓ its fruit إِذَآ when أَثْمَرَ it bears fruit وَءَاتُوا۟ and give حَقَّهُۥ its due يَوْمَ (on the) day حَصَادِهِۦ ۖ (of) its harvest وَلَا And (do) not تُسْرِفُوٓا۟ ۚ (be) extravagant إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, He لَا (does) not يُحِبُّ love ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ the ones who are extravagant ١٤١

And He it is who causes gardens to grow, [both] trellised and untrellised, and palm trees and crops of different [kinds of] food and olives and pomegranates, similar and dissimilar. Eat of [each of] its fruit when it yields and give its due [zakāh] on the day of its harvest. And be not excessive. Indeed, He does not like those who commit excess.

وَمِنَ And of ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ the cattle حَمُولَةًۭ (are some for) burden وَفَرْشًۭا ۚ and (some for) meat كُلُوا۟ Eat مِمَّا of what رَزَقَكُمُ (has been) provided (to) you ٱللَّهُ (by) Allah وَلَا and (do) not تَتَّبِعُوا۟ follow خُطُوَٰتِ (the) footsteps ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنِ ۚ (of) Shaitaan إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, he لَكُمْ (is) to you عَدُوٌّۭ an enemy مُّبِينٌۭ open ١٤٢

And of the grazing livestock are carriers [of burdens] and those [too] small. Eat of what Allāh has provided for you and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.
