The Holy Quran 6:151 — Surah Al-An'am

Arabic text

۞ قُلْ تَعَالَوْا۟ أَتْلُ مَا حَرَّمَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ ۖ أَلَّا تُشْرِكُوا۟ بِهِۦ شَيْـًٔا ۖ وَبِٱلْوَٰلِدَيْنِ إِحْسَـٰنًا ۖ وَلَا تَقْتُلُوٓا۟ أَوْلَـٰدَكُم مِّنْ إِمْلَـٰقٍ ۖ نَّحْنُ نَرْزُقُكُمْ وَإِيَّاهُمْ ۖ وَلَا تَقْرَبُوا۟ ٱلْفَوَٰحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ ۖ وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا۟ ٱلنَّفْسَ ٱلَّتِى حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ إِلَّا بِٱلْحَقِّ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ وَصَّىٰكُم بِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

Translation

Say, "Draw closer, I shall recite to you the things that your Rabb has forbidden for you. (These are) That you do not ascribe any partner to Him and that you be kind towards your parents. (Allaah has also commanded) That you do not kill (abort) your children for fear of poverty (fearing that you will become poor by providing for them). We provide for you and for them as well (even though you may be poor). And (Allaah commands) that you do not draw near to immoral (indecent) acts that may be open and secret (such as secretly looking at or meeting with a member of the opposite sex or the free intermingling of sexes). And (Allaah commands further) that you do not murder a soul which Allaah has forbidden except with a right (that permits you to kill him. Those who may be lawfully executed are married adulterers, murderers and male Murtaddeen). These are the things which Allaah has (emphatically) commanded you so that you may understand (obey).
