this day all good things have been made lawful to you. the food of the people of the book is permitted to you and your food is permitted to them. and permitted to you are chaste women be they either from among the believers or from among those who have received the book before you provided you become their protectors in wedlock after paying them their bridaldue rather than go around committing fornication and taking them as secretcompanions. the work of he who refuses to follow the way of faith will go waste and he will be among the utter losers in the hereafter.
اليوم أحل لكم الطيبات وطعام الذين أوتوا الكتاب حل لكم وطعامكم حل لهم والمحصنات من المؤمنات والمحصنات من الذين أوتوا الكتاب من قبلكم إذا آتيتموهن أجورهن محصنين غير مسافحين ولا متخذي أخدان ومن يكفر بالإيمان فقد حبط عمله وهو في الآخرة من الخاسرين
