قوله تعالى: ﴿أيحب أحدكم أن يأكل لحم أخيه ميتا﴾ [الحجرات: 12] كنى بذلك عن تناول الأعراض بما لا يليق، والغيبة، فصور لهم أن المغتاب بمنزلة من يأكل لحم أخيه ميتا، وفيه منفرات كثيرة:
Verses 1–12 of 12
He hath only forbidden you Dead meat, and blood, And the flesh of swine, And that on which Any other name hath been invoked Besides that of God. But if one is forced by necessity, Without wilful disobedience, Nor transgressing due limits,— Then is he guiltless. For God is Oft-forgiving Most Merciful.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:173Or (take) the similitude Of one who passed By a hamlet, all in ruins To its roofs. He said: "Oh! how shall God Bring it (ever) to life, After (this) its death?" But God caused him To die for a hundred years, Then raised him up (again). He said: "How long Didst thou tarry (thus)?" He said: "(Perhaps) a day Or part of a day." He said: "Nay, thou hast tarried Thus a hundred years; But look at thy food And thy drink; they show No signs of age; and look At thy donkey: and that We may make of thee A Sign unto the people, Look further at the bones, How We bring them together And clothe them with flesh." When this was shown clearly To him, he said: "I know That God hath power Over all things."
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:259Forbidden to you (for food) Are: dead meat, blood, The flesh of swine, and that On which hath been invoked The name of other than God; That which hath been Killed by strangling, Or by a violent blow, Or by a headlong fall, Or by being gored to death; That which hath been (partly) Eaten by a wild animal; Unless ye are able To slaughter it (in due form); That which is sacrificed On stone (altars); (Forbidden) also is the division (Of meat) by raffling With arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who Reject Faith given up All hope of your religion: Yet fear them not But fear Me. This day have I Perfected your religion For you, completed My favour upon you, And have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced By hunger, with no inclination To transgression, God is Indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.
Surah Al-Ma'idah, verse 5:3Say: "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 6:145It is He Who has made The sea subject, that ye May eat thereof flesh That is fresh and tender, And that ye may extract Therefrom ornaments to wear; And thou seest the ships Therein that plough the waves, That ye may seek (thus) Of the bounty of God And that ye may be grateful.
Surah An-Nahl, verse 16:14He has only forbidden you Dead meat, and blood, And the flesh of swine, And any (food) over which The name of other than God Has been invoked. But if one is forced by necessity, Without wilful disobedience, Nor transgressing due limits,— Then God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Surah An-Nahl, verse 16:115It is not their meat Nor their blood, that reaches God: it is your piety That reaches Him: He Has thus made them subject To you, that ye may glorify God for his guidance to you: And proclaim the Good News To all who do right.
Surah Al-Hajj, verse 22:37Then We made the sperm Into a clot of congealed blood; Then of that clot We made A (fœtus) lump; then We Made out of that lump Bones and clothed the bones With flesh; then We developed Out of it another creature. So blessed be God, The Best to create!
Surah Al-Mu'minun, verse 23:14Nor are the two bodies Of flowing water alike,— The one palatable, sweet, And pleasant to drink, And the other, salt And bitter. Yet from each (Kind of water) do ye Eat flesh fresh and tender, And ye extract ornaments To wear; and thou seest The ships therein that plough The waves, that ye may Seek (thus) of the Bounty Of God that ye May be grateful.
Surah Fatir, verse 35:12O ye who believe! Avoid suspicion as much (As possible): for suspicion In some cases is a sin: And spy not on each other, Nor speak ill of each other Behind their backs. Would any Of you like to eat The flesh of his dead Brother? Nay, ye would Abhor it… But fear God: For God is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.
