    When Talūt set forth With the armies, he said: "God will test you At the stream: if any Drinks of its water, He goes not with my army: Only those who taste not Of it go with me: A mere sip out of the hand Is excused." But they all Drank of it, except a few. When they crossed the river,— He and the faithful ones with him, They said: "This day We cannot cope With Goliath and his forces." But those who were convinced That they must meet God, Said: "How oft, by God's will, Hath a small force Vanquished a big one? God is with those Who steadfastly persevere."

    On those who believe And do deeds of righteousness There is no blame For what they ate (in the past), When they guard themselves From evil, and believe, And do deeds of righteousness,— (Or) again, guard themselves From evil and believe,— (Or) again, guard themselves From evil and do good. For God loveth those Who do good.

    And they say that Such and such cattle and crops Are taboo, and none should Eat of them except those Whom—so they say—We Wish; further, there are Cattle forbidden to yoke Or burden, and cattle On which, (at slaughter), The name of God is not Pronounced;—inventions Against God's name: soon Will He requite them For their inventions.

    Surah Al-An'am, verse 6:138
  4. Each word opens its meaning.

    Say: "I find not In the Message received By me by inspiration Any (meat) forbidden To be eaten by one Who wishes to eat it, Unless it be dead meat, Or blood poured forth, Or the flesh of swine,— For it is an abomination— Or, what is impious, (meat) On which a name has been Invoked, other than God's." But (even so), if a person Is forced by necessity, Without wilful disobedience, Nor transgressing due limits,— Thy Lord is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

    Surah Al-An'am, verse 6:145
  5. Each word opens its meaning.

    O ye who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses,— Until leave is given you, For a meal, (and then) Not (so early as) to wait For its preparation: but when Ye are invited, enter; And when ye have taken Your meal, disperse, Without seeking familiar talk. Such (behaviour) annoys The Prophet: he is ashamed To dismiss you, but God is not ashamed (To tell you) the truth. And when ye Ask (his ladies) For anything ye want, Ask them from before A screen: that makes For greater purity for Your hearts and for theirs. Nor is it right for you That ye should annoy God's Apostle, or that Ye should marry his widows After him at any time. Truly such a thing is In God's sight an enormity.

    Surah Al-Ahzab, verse 33:53

    (Here is) a Parable Of the Garden which The righteous are promised: In it are rivers Of water incorruptible; Rivers of milk Of which the taste Never changes; rivers Of wine, a joy To those who drink; And rivers of honey Pure and clear. In it There are for them All kinds of fruits; And Grace from their Lord. (Can those in such Bliss) Be compared to such as Shall dwell for ever In the Fire, and be given, To drink, boiling water, So that it cuts up Their bowels (to pieces)?

    Surah Muhammad, verse 47:15
