Al-An'am 6:121 ولا تاكلوا مما لم يذكر اسم الله عليه وانه لفسق وان الشياطين ليوحون الى اوليايهم ليجادلوكم وان اطعتموهم انكم لمشركون ١٢١

6:121
وَلَا
تَأۡكُلُواْ
مِمَّا
لَمۡ
يُذۡكَرِ
ٱسۡمُ
ٱللَّهِ
عَلَيۡهِ
وَإِنَّهُۥ
لَفِسۡقٞۗ
وَإِنَّ
ٱلشَّيَٰطِينَ
لَيُوحُونَ
إِلَىٰٓ
أَوۡلِيَآئِهِمۡ
لِيُجَٰدِلُوكُمۡۖ
وَإِنۡ
أَطَعۡتُمُوهُمۡ
إِنَّكُمۡ
لَمُشۡرِكُونَ
١٢١
And do not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has not been mentioned, for indeed, it is grave disobedience. And indeed do the devils inspire their allies [among men] to dispute with you. And if you were to obey them, indeed, you would be associators [of others with Him].1

Chapter 6, Page 143, Juz 8

116. And if you obey most of those upon the earth, they will mislead you from the way of Allāh. They follow not except assumption, and they are not but misjudging. 117. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who strays from His way, and He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided. 118. So eat of that [meat] upon which the name of Allāh has been mentioned, if you are believers in His verses [i.e., revealed law]. 119. And why should you not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh 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. 120. And leave [i.e., desist from] what is apparent of sin and what is concealed thereof. Indeed, those who earn [blame for] sin will be recompensed for that which they used to commit. 121. And do not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has not been mentioned, for indeed, it is grave disobedience. And indeed do the devils inspire their allies [among men] to dispute with you. And if you were to obey them, indeed, you would be associators [of others with Him].
