6:86(12) “And it is about Ishmael, and Elisha, and Jonah (Younus), and Lot. And all others did We honor above other people;”
6:145 See 5:3
6:145(28) “Tell them O Messenger : “Whatever has been revealed to me I do not find therein for a seeker of knowledge and intellect (Taa’im – طاعم ) anything prohibited in the knowledge and intellect that he intends to acquire (yat’amu-hu – یطعموہ), except that which may ruin or cause death of his faculty of imagination (al-mayitatah – المیتتہ “Mufarradat Raghib”), or which may cause outpour of impolite and uncivilized behavior (damman masfoohan – دم مسفوحا), or which may cause him join together with (laham –لحم) a devious/cunning person (Khinzeer – خنزیر) it being an unholy (رِجْس) alliance, or which is tantamount to the crime (أَوْ فِسْقً) of proclaiming (أُهِلّ) a non-divine ideology (لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ بِهِ). However, who might have done so under some forced compulsion (اضْطُرّ), without ever having a willful intention of disobedience and transgression on their part, for them their Lord is the dispenser of protection and mercy.”
6:146(28) “And to the Jews we had forbidden all those acts which were Zee Zafarin –ذی ظفر i.e., which involved or connected with acquisition of ownership, domination or victory (ذِي ظُفُرٍ ). (In other words, a state of total passivity, submissiveness, humbleness and austerity was imposed). And in connection with the abundance of wealth and resources (وَمِنَ الْبَقَرِ ), and big flocks and herds (وَالْغَنَمِ), we had also prohibited them (حَرَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ) from showing pride and pomp on these two holdings of theirs (شُحُومَهُمَا), excepting what becomes imminently manifest by the presence of both of these (مَا حَمَلَتْ ظُهُورُهُمَا), or in the course of collection and gathering thereof (الْحَوَايَا ), or they may do whatever they may decide/resolve in this behalf collectively (أَوْ مَا اخْتَلَطَ بِعَظْمٍ). This was what we had subjected them to in return for their arrogance and disobedience (ذَٰلِكَ جَزَيْنَاهُم بِبَغْيِهِمْ ). And We are definitely true to Our Word.”
6:151(3) “Say, “Come to me and I will tell you what actually has Allah forbidden (declared Haraam) to you”. Do not associate anyone or anything with his exclusive sovereignty and extend good and balanced treatment to your elders; Do not ruin your young generation, out of poverty, by keeping them deprived of moral and conscious development (وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا ) as We are responsible to provide for you and them; Do not go near obscene behavior, apparent or concealed; Do not waste a life whom Allah has declared prohibited or respected, except when it becomes a rightful duty. This has He instructed you that you may exercise reason.”
