Surah Al-An'am (The cattle)
• 6th surah (chapter) of The Qur’an.
• 165 ayaat (verses).
• Revealed in Makkah.

They would say it was forbidden to eat certain meat from the cattles and that females were not allowed to drink from the milk and only those whom they chose were allowed to eat from their meat.
All these rules were made up by people and not at all what Allah had instructed from us for Allah is the most fair and just Lord. Allah tells us many times in the Qur’an to eat from what Allah has given us! ie. Cattle. Allah says he will repay them for the lies that they speak!
