ዛሬ መልካሞች ሁሉ ለናንተ ተፈቀዱ ፡ ፡ የእነዚያም መጽሐፍን የተሰጡት ሰዎች ምግብ ( ያረዱት ) ለእናንተ የተፈቀደ ነው ፡ ፡ ምግባችሁም ለነሱ የተፈቀደ ነው ፡ ፡ ከምእመናት ጥብቆቹም ከእነዚያ ከእናንተ በፊት መጽሐፍን ከተሰጡት ሴቶች ጥብቆቹም ፤ ዘማዊዎችና ( ዝሙተኞች ) የምስጢር ወዳጅ ያዢዎች ሳትኾኑ ጥብቆች ኾናችሁ መህሮቻቸውን በሰጣችኋቸው ጊዜ ( ልታገቡዋቸው የተፈቀዱ ናቸው ) ፡ ፡ ከእምነትም የሚመለስ ሰው በእርግጥ ሥራው ተበላሸ ፡ ፡ በመጨረሻም ቀን እርሱ ከከሳሪዎቹ ነው ፡ ፡
This day ( all ) the good things are allowed to you ; and the food of those who have been given the Book is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them ; and the chaste from among the believing women and the chaste from among those who have been given the Book before you ( are lawful for you ) ; when you have given them their dowries , taking ( them ) in marriage , not fornicating nor taking them for paramours in secret ; and whoever denies faith , his work indeed is of no account , and in the hereafter he shall be one of the losers .
