692 If an animal dies by strangling, or by a violent blow, or a headlong fall, or by being gored to death, or by being<br />

attacked by a wild animal, the presumption is that it becomes carrion, as the life-blood is congealed before being<br />

taken out of the body. But the presumption can be rebutted. If the life-blood still flows and the solemn mode of<br />

slaughter (zabh in the name of Allah is carried out, it becomes lawful as food. (5.3)<br />

693 This was also an idolatrous rite, different from that in which a sacrifice was devoted to a particular idol or a false god.<br />

(5.3)<br />

694 Gambling of all kinds is forbidden; ii. 291. A sort of lottery or raffle practised by Pagan Arabs has been described in n.<br />

241. Division of meat in this way is here forbidden, as it is a form of gambling. (5.3)<br />

697 The previous verse was negative; it defined what was not lawful for food, viz., things gross, or disgusting, or dedicated<br />

to superstition. This verse is positive: it defines what is lawful, viz., all things that are good and pure. (5.4)<br />

6:145 - Say: "I find not in the Message received by me by inspiration any (meat) forbidden to be<br />

eaten by one who wishes to eat it unless it be dead meat or blood poured forth or the flesh of<br />

swine for it is an abomination or what is impious (meat) on which a name has been invoked<br />

other than Allah's." But (even so) if a person is forced by necessity without wilful disobedience<br />

nor transgressing due limits thy Lord is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. 969<br />

969 Blood poured forth: as distinguished from blood adhering to flesh, or the liver, or such other internal organs purifying<br />

the blood. (6.145)<br />

16:115 - He has only forbidden you dead meat and blood and the flesh of swine and any (food) over<br />

which the name of other than Allah has been invoked. But if one is forced by necessity<br />

without willful disobedience nor transgressing due limits then Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most<br />

Merciful. 2152<br />

Sunan of Abu-Dawood<br />

Hadith 3808<br />

Narrated by<br />

Al-Faji' ibn Abdullah al-Am<br />

Al-Faji' came to the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) and asked: Is not dead meat lawful for us? He said: What is your<br />

food? We said: Some food in the evening and some in the morning. AbuNu'aym said: Uqbah explained it to me saying: a cup<br />

(of milk) in the morning and a cup in the evening; this does not satisfy the hunger. So made the carrion lawful for them in this<br />

condition.<br />

Selling Animals in Exchange for Meat<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 2.569 Narrated by<br />

Ibn Abbas<br />

The Prophet saw a dead sheep which had been given in charity to a freed slave-girl of Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet .<br />

The Prophet said, "Why don't you get the benefit of its hide?" They said, "It is dead." He replied, "Only to eat (its meat) is<br />

illegal."<br />

DEAF:<br />

2:18 - - Deaf dumb and blind they will not return (to the path).<br />

2:171 - The parable of those who reject faith is as if one were to shout like a goat-herd to things<br />

that listen to nothing but calls and cries; deaf dumb and blind they are void of wisdom. 170171<br />

170 If you reject all faith, the highest wisdom and the most salutary regulations are lost on you. You are like "dumb driven<br />

cattle" who can merely hear calls, but cannot distinguish intelligently between shades of meaning or subtle differences<br />

of values. (2.171)<br />

171 Cf ii. 18, where we are told that the rejectors of faith are "deaf, dumb and blind: they will not return to the path." Here<br />

the consequence of their not using their senses is that they have no wisdom. In each context there is just the<br />

appropriate deduction. (2.171)<br />
