And as for the sacrifice of cattle, We have ordained it for you as one of the symbols set up by God,1 in which there is [much] good for you. Hence, extol the name of God over them when they are lined up [for sacrifice]; and after they have fallen lifeless to the ground, eat of their flesh,2 and feed the poor who is contented with his lot [and does not beg], as well as him who is forced to beg. It isto this end3 that We have made them4 subservient to your needs, so that you might have cause to be grateful.
