Surah Al-Hajj · Ayah 36·Madanī

36

لَكُم مِّن لَكُمْ فِيهَا عَلَيْهَا فَإِذَا مِنْهَا كَذَٰلِكَ لَكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ ﴿٣٦﴾

Translation

Saheeh International

And the camels and cattle We have appointed for you as among the symbols of Allah; for you therein is good. So mention the name of Allah upon them when lined up [for sacrifice]; and when they are [lifeless] on their sides, then eat from them and feed the needy and the beggar. Thus have We subjected them to you that you may be grateful.
