آيات AYAT.ONE
وَمَا لَـكُمۡ اَلَّا تَاۡكُلُوۡا مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسۡمُ اللّٰهِ عَلَيۡهِ وَقَدۡ فَصَّلَ لَـكُمۡ مَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ اِلَّا مَا اضۡطُرِرۡتُمۡ اِلَيۡهِؕ وَاِنَّ كَثِيۡرًا لَّيُضِلُّوۡنَ بِاَهۡوَآٮِٕهِمۡ بِغَيۡرِ عِلۡمٍ​ؕ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ اَعۡلَمُ بِالۡمُعۡتَدِيۡنَ‏ ۝
Wama lakum alla ta/kuloo mimmathukira ismu Allahi AAalayhi waqad fassalalakum ma harrama AAalaykum illa ma idturirtumilayhi wa-inna katheeran layudilloona bi-ahwa-ihimbighayri AAilmin inna rabbaka huwa aAAlamu bilmuAAtadeen
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.

Tadabbur (Reflection)

Theme of the Ayat

The Prohibition of the Unsanctified: Questioning the necessity of consuming forbidden meat.

The Insight

The verse questions why believers should not eat lawful meat and admonishes those who forbid what God has not forbidden. **Avoid needless restrictions.** Do not invent prohibitions where God has not placed them. The consumption of unlawful meat is forbidden because God's name was not pronounced, making it impure.
