The Quran

يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنوا لَيَبلُوَنَّكُمُ اللَّهُ بِشَيءٍ مِنَ الصَّيدِ تَنالُهُ أَيديكُم وَرِماحُكُم لِيَعلَمَ اللَّهُ مَن يَخافُهُ بِالغَيبِ ۚ فَمَنِ اعتَدىٰ بَعدَ ذٰلِكَ فَلَهُ عَذابٌ أَليمٌ

Muhammad Asad

O YOU who have attained to faith! Most certainly God will try you by means of the game which may come within the reach of your hands and your weapons¹ [while you are on pilgrimage], so that God might mark out those who fear Him although He is beyond the reach of human perception.² And as for him who, after all this, transgresses the bounds of what is right-grievous suffering awaits him!

Lit., "with something of the game which your hands and your lances [may] reach".
With this verse, the Qur'an returns to the prohibition of hunting during pilgrimage enunciated in verse 1 of this surah. The "trial" arises from the fact that hunting, although lawful in itself (and therefore included among the things which the believer, according to the preceding verse, may normally partake of), is prohibited in the state of pilgrimage. - As regards the expression bi'l ghayb, rendered by me as "although He is beyond the reach of human perception", see surah 2,. note 3.
