(How should ye not eat of that over which the name of Allah hath been mentioned) of immolated animals, (when He hath explained unto you that which is forbidden unto you) such as the meat of carrion, blood and pork, (unless you are compelled thereto) except if you are forced to eat the meat of carrion. (But lo! Many) Abu'l-Ahwas and his folk (are led astray by their own lusts) call on you to eat the meat of carrion (through ignorance) or proof. (Lo! your Lord, He is best aware of the transgressors) who move from the lawful to that which is unlawful.
