The meanings of the verses 7:31-33 of the Noble Quran:
Verse 7:31says:
O Children of Adam! Don your adornment, that which covers your nakedness, at every place of worship, at prayer and at the circumambulation, and eat and drink, what you want, but do not be excessive;
Do not be prodigal; do not declare unlawful wholesome foods, meat and fat.
He truly does not love those who are excessive and wasters.
Verse 7:32says:
Say O Muhammad to the people: ‘Who has forbidden the adornment of Allah, which He has brought forth for His servants, in the way of garments, and the good things, the delicious foods, of God’s sustenance?’ i.e. the adornment which He created (for His bondmen, and the good things of His providing?
For in the pre-Islamic days they used to forbid themselves meat and fat during the days of pilgrimage, and entered the Sacred Precinct completely naked: the men during the day and the women during the night.
Allah made these practices unlawful. (Say) O Muhammad: (Such) the good things, (on the Day of Resurrection, will be only for those who believed during the life of the world in Muhammad and the Quran, while both believer and sinner will enjoy them during the life of this world.
Thus do we detail our revelations? We elucidate the Quran by explaining the lawful and the unlawful for people who have knowledge and wisdom, for people who believe it is from Allah, for they are the ones to profit from.
Verse 7:33says:
Say to them, O Muhammad: My Lord forbids only indecencies, grave sins, such as fornication, such of them as are apparent and such as are hidden, that is, the overt ones and the secret ones, and sin, the act of disobedience, and wrongful insolence, against people, namely, oppression, and that you associate with God that for which He never revealed any warrant, any definitive proof for such association, and that you say concerning God that which you do not know’, in the way of forbidding what He has not forbidden and other things.
