Sura 5
Aya 96
96
أُحِلَّ لَكُم صَيدُ البَحرِ وَطَعامُهُ مَتاعًا لَكُم وَلِلسَّيّارَةِ ۖ وَحُرِّمَ عَلَيكُم صَيدُ البَرِّ ما دُمتُم حُرُمًا ۗ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ الَّذي إِلَيهِ تُحشَرونَ

Yusuf Ali

Lawful to you is the pursuit1 of water-game and its use for food,- for the benefit of yourselves and those who travel; but forbidden is the pursuit of landgame;- as long as ye are in the sacred precincts or in pilgrim garb. And fear God, to Whom ye shall be gathered back.
  • Water game: i.e., game found in water, e.g., water fowl, fish, etc. “Water” includes sea, river, lake, pond, etc.
