Quran,Translation and Commentary in Brief (Vol. 03)
Verses 68-69 WATERS, FRUITS, AND CATTLE (VERSES NO. 65 - 67)

      Milk and the products made from it are used as food in almost all nations of the world. The principle source of milk is the dairy cow, goat,sheep and camel. Because of its extensive use as a food, milk is subject to stringent regulations defined legally by the Public Health Services.

      Milk is composed of three general parts; water, fat, and solid-not-fat. The latter component is composed of protein, Lactose, and Minerals.

      Milk is often called, ``NATURAL'S MOST NEARLY PERFECT FOOD'' for it contains nearly all of the essential minerals, especially Calcium and Phosphorus.

      One pint of Cow's milk contains the following component parts:ِA- 385 calories of FOOD ENERGY. B- 17 grams of PROTEIN. C- 0.58 grams of Calcium. D- 0.44 grams of PHOSPHRUS. E- 750 International Units of VITAMIN A F- 0.165 milligrams of THIAMINE. G- 0.83 milligrams of RIBOFLAVIN. H- 4.35 milligrams of NIACIN. I- 7 milligrams of ASCORBI-ACID.

      Then in the next verse (NO.67) reference is made to fruits, and uses of dates and grapes:ِ

      ``And of the date and grapes you get intoxicants, and good sustenance.''

      The Arabic, ``SAKAR'' may have other meanings too, but here alcoholic intoxicant is wanted. It is evident that Qurän, in this verse has not permitted to make intoxicants out of date and grapes, because here the intoxicant is callated with good food or drink (sustenance). We therefore need not to say that this verse revealed in Mecca, and before the prohibition of intoxicants. In contrary, the verse implies that intoxicant is not a good food and it is to be taken as anlawful.
