An-Nahl · Ayah 115 · Juz 14 · Page 280

إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡمَيۡتَةَ وَٱلدَّمَ وَلَحۡمَ ٱلۡخِنزِيرِ وَمَآ أُهِلَّ لِغَيۡرِ ٱللَّهِ بِهِۦۖ فَمَنِ ٱضۡطُرَّ غَيۡرَ بَاغٖ وَلَا عَادٖ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ ١١٥

Innamā ḥarrama ʿalaykumul-maytata wad-dama wa laḥmal-khinzīri wa mā uhilla lighayrillāhi bih, famaniḍṭurra ghayra bāghiw wa lā ʿādin fa innallāha ghafūrur raḥīm.

He has only forbidden to you dead animals,1 blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allāh. But whoever is forced [by necessity], neither desiring [it] nor transgressing [its limit] - then indeed, Allāh is Forgiving and Merciful.

Translation: Sahih International
