Other translations:

6: 118

Asad

Eat, then, of that over which God’s name has been pronounced, if you truly believe in His messages.



Pickthall

Eat of that over which the name of Allah hath been mentioned, if ye are believers in His revelations.

6: 119

Asad


and why should you not eat of that over which God’s name has been pronounced, seeing that He has so clearly spelled out to you He has forbidden you unless you are compelled [to do so] ? But, behold, many people lead other astray by their own errant views, without knowledge. Verily, your Sustainer is fully aware of those who transgress the bounds of what is right.



Pickthall

How should ye not eat of that over which the name of Allah hath been mentioned, when He hath explained unto you that which is forbidden unto you, unless ye are compelled thereto. But lo! many are led astray by their own lusts through ignorance. Lo! thy Lord, He is best aware of the transgressors.
