6:122

وَلَا تَأْكُلُوا۟ مِمَّا لَمْ يُذْكَرِ ٱسْمُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنَّهُۥ لَفِسْقٌ ۗ وَإِنَّ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينَ لَيُوحُونَ إِلَىٰٓ أَوْلِيَآئِهِمْ لِيُجَٰدِلُوكُمْ ۖ وَإِنْ أَطَعْتُمُوهُمْ إِنَّكُمْ لَمُشْرِكُونَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

And eat not of that on which the name of Allah has not been pronounced, for surely that is disobedience. And certainly the evil ones inspire their friends that they may dispute with you. And if you obey them, you will indeed be setting up gods with God.

English - Five Volume Translation

And [a]eat not of that on which the name of Allah has not been pronounced, for surely that is disobedience. And certainly the evil ones inspire their friends that they may dispute with you. And if you obey them, you will indeed be setting up gods with God.[863]

5:4; 6:146.

Commentary:

The verse points out that if believers eat of the flesh of those animals on which the name of God has not been pronounced, it will be an act of disobedience and transgression.

One sin leads to another. If a believer fails to pronounce the name of God on his food, his heart becomes devoid of reverence for Him and this gradually leads to شرك i.e. associating partners with God.

English - Short Commentary Translation

And [a]eat not of that on which the name of Allah has not been pronounced,[905] for surely that is abomination. And certainly the evil ones inspire their friends with such thoughts that they may dispute with you. And if you obey them, you will indeed be of those who set up gods with Allah.

5:4; 6:146.

The verse explains why it is forbidden to eat such animals as die of themselves or such as are not duly slaughtered with an invocation of the name of God. The pronouncement of the name of God produces sanctifying effect on man’s heart which nullifies the hardening effect which the killing of the animal is likely to produce.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اور اس میں سے نہ کھاؤ جس پر اللہ کا نام نہ لیا گیا ہو۔ یقیناً وہ ناپاک ہے۔ اور لازماً شیاطین اپنے دوستوں کی طرف وحی کرتے ہیں تا کہ وہ تم سے جھگڑا کریں اور اگر تم ان کی اطاعت کرو گے تو تم یقیناً مشرک ہو جاؤ گے۔

French

Et ne mangez pas de ce sur quoi le nom d’Allāh n’aura pas été prononcé, car certainement, c’est là une abomination. Et il est certain que les malins inspirent leurs amis pour qu’ils disputent avec vous. Et si vous leur obéissez, vous serez certainement des associateurs.

German

Und esset nicht von dem, worüber Allahs Name nicht ausgesprochen ward, denn fürwahr, das ist Ungehorsam. Und gewiss werden die Teufel ihren Freunden eingeben, mit euch zu streiten. Und wenn ihr ihnen gehorcht, so werdet ihr Götzendiener sein.

Chinese

[b]你们不要吃那未诵[456]安拉之名 (而宰) 的东西, 这的确是背逆的 (行为)。恶魔常在其友人心中贯注(这样的思想), 以便他们与你们争辩。假如你们顺从他们, 那么, 你们无疑地将变成多神教徒。

5:4; 6:146.

这节经文说明禁止吃诸如自行死亡的牲畜, 或未诵安拉之名而宰杀的牲畜的理由。诵呼安拉之名在人类心灵上会产生一种神圣效应, 它可以抵消宰杀牲畜所可能产生的冷酷无情的效应。

Italian

E non mangiate niente su cui non sia stato pronunciato il nome di Allah, poiché certamente questa è disobbedienza. E indubbiamente i malvagi ispirano i loro amici a discutere con voi. E se voi ubbidirete loro, davvero metterete altri dei alla pari di Dio.

Spanish

Y no comáis de aquello sobre lo que no ha sido invocado el nombre de Al-lah porque, en verdad, es una desobediencia. Y ciertamente los malvados inspiran a sus amigos para que discutan con vosotros. Pero si es obedecéis, ciertamente estaréis levantando a otros dioses a la altura de Dios.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور تم اس میں سے جس پر اللہ کا نام نہیں لیا گیا نہ کھاؤ اور یہ (فعل) یقیناً نافرمانی ہے اور شیطان یقیناً اپنے دوستوں کے دل میں (ایسے خیال) ڈالتے رہتے ہیں تا کہ وہ تم سے جھگڑیں‘ اور اگر تم ان کی فرمانبرداری کرو گے تو یقیناً تم مشرک ہو جاؤ گے۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اور جس جانور کو اللہ کا نام لے کر ذبح نہ کیا گیا ہو اس کا گوشت نہ کھاؤ، ایسا کرنا فسق ہے شیاطین اپنے ساتھیوں کے دلوں میں شکوک و اعتراضات القا کرتے ہیں تاکہ وہ تم سے جھگڑا کریں لیکن اگر تم نے اُن کی اطاعت قبول کر لی تو یقیناً تم مشرک ہو

English - Sahih

And do not eat of that upon which the name of Allah 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].

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

اور جس چیز پر الله کا نام نہیں لیا گیا اس میں سے نہ کھاؤ اور بے شک یہ کھانا گناہ ہے اور بے شک شیطان اپنے دوستوں کے دلو ں میں ڈالتے ہیں تاکہ وہ تم سے جھگڑیں اور اگر تم نے ان کا کہا مانا تو تم بھی مشرک ہو جاؤ گے

English - Talal Itani

And (do) not eat of that, not has been mentioned (the) name (of) Allah on it, and indeed, it (is) grave disobedience. And indeed, the devils inspire to their friends so that they dispute with you, and if you obey them, indeed, you (would) be the polytheists.

English - Arberry

And eat not of that over which God's Name has not been mentioned; it is ungodliness. The Satans inspire their friends to dispute with you; if you obey them, you are idolaters.

English - Maududi

Do not eat of (the animal) over which the name of Allah has not been pronounced (at the time of its slaughtering), for that is a transgression. And behold, the evil ones do inspire doubts and objections into the hearts of their friends so that they dispute with you; but if you obey them, you will surely yourselves turn into those who associate others with Allah in His divinity.

English - Ahmed Ali

Do not eat of that over which God's name has not been pronounced, for that would amount to exceeding the limits of law. Certainly the devils inspire their proteges to dispute with you: If you obey them, you will surely become an idolater.

English - Yusuf Ali

Eat not of (meats) on which Allah's name hath not been pronounced: That would be impiety. But the evil ones ever inspire their friends to contend with you if ye were to obey them, ye would indeed be Pagans.

English - Sir Muhammad Zafrullah Khan ^ra

Eat not that on which the name of Allah has not been pronounced, for that, surely, is disobedience. The rebellious ones keep inciting their friends that they may contend with you. If you obey them you will become of those who associate partners with Allah.
