54 يَسْتَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْسِرِ قُلْ فِيهِمَا إِثْمُ كَبِيرُ وَمَتَفِعُ لِلنَّاسِ وَإِثْمُهُمَا أَكْبَرُ مِن نَفْعهما. Allah says:. They ask you concerning liquor and gambling. Tell them:There is great harm in both and also some advantages for the people but their harm is greater than their advantage. (2 :220) كُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا وَلَا تُشْرِفُوا. Eat and drink but with moderation. (7:32). ALLAH CREATED ANIMALS وَاللهُ خَلَقَ كُلَّ دَابَّةٍ مِن مَاءِ فَمِنْهُم مَّن يَمْشِي عَلَى بَطْنِهِ، وَمِنْهُم مَّن. E يَمْشِي عَلَى رِجْلَيْنِ وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَمْشِي عَلَى أَرْبَعَ يَخْلُقُ اللهُ مَا يَشَاءُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ *. Allah has created every animal from water. Some of them move on their bellies, some of them on two feet and some on four. Allah creates what He pleases. Surely Allah has power to do all that He wills. (24:46) اللهُ الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَنْعَمَ لِتَرْكَبُوا مِنْهَا وَمِنْهَا تأكُلُونَ وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا مَتَفِعُ. It is Allah Who has made cattle for you, that you may ride some of them, and eat of some of them and you have other advantages in them. (40:80,81)
