The Holy Quran 38:33 — Surah Sad

Arabic text

رُدُّوهَا عَلَىَّ ۖ فَطَفِقَ مَسْحًۢا بِٱلسُّوقِ وَٱلْأَعْنَاقِ

Translation

(He then commanded his servants saying,) "Return them (the horses) to me." He then began to strike their legs and manes (their necks with his sword, thereby slaughtering them all. He did this as an offering to Allaah to make amends for his mistake. Since eating horses was permissible in his Shari'ah, he fed the meat to the people).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

فقال: إنني آثرت حب المال عن ذكر ربي حتى غابت الشمس عن عينيه، رُدُّوا عليَّ الخيل التي عُرضت من قبل، فشرع يمسح سوقها وأعناقها.
