Verse (6:119)

The analysis above refers to the 119th verse of chapter 6 (sūrat l-anʿām):

Sahih International: And why should you not eat of that upon which the name of Allah has been mentioned while He has explained in detail to you what He has forbidden you, excepting that to which you are compelled. And indeed do many lead [others] astray through their [own] inclinations without knowledge. Indeed, your Lord - He is most knowing of the transgressors.
