In the Quran
(2:173) He has forbidden (Arab. حَرَّمَ, ḥarrama) for you what is already dead, the blood, the meat of pig, and what was dedicated to other than God. Whoever finds himself forced out of need and without disobedience or animosity, there is no sin upon him. God is Forgiving, Compassionate.
(6:138) They said by asserting that: "These are livestock and crops that are restricted, and none shall eat from them except as we please." Even, livestock whose backs are forbidden (Arab. حُرِّمَتْ, ḥurrimat), and livestock over which they do not mention God's name as invention against Him. He will recompense them for what they invented.
Making lawful what was forbidden
(3:50) "Authenticating what is present with me of the Torah, and to make lawful some of what was forbidden (Arab. حُرِّمَ, ḥurrima) to you; and I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so be aware of God and obey me."
Forbidden Garden
(5:72) Ingrates indeed are those who have said, "God is the Messiah son of Mary!" Although the Messiah had said, "O Children of Israel, serve God, my Lord and your Lord. Whoever sets up partners with God, then God will forbid (Arab. حَرَّمَ, ḥarrama) the Garden for him, and his destiny will be the fire; and the wicked will have no supporters."
The food, that Israel forbade for himself
(3:93) All the food used to be lawful to the Children of Israel, except what Israel forbade (Arab. حَرَّمَ, ḥarrama) for himself before the Torah was sent down. Say, "Bring the Torah and recite it if you are truthful."
Forbidden items
(5:3) Forbidden (Arab. حُرِّمَتْ, ḥurrimat) to you is what is already dead, and the blood, the meat of pig, and animals sacrificed to other than God. The strangled, killed by a blow, fallen from height, gored, eaten by wild animals except what you managed to rescue, and those slaughtered on altars... Also what you divide through gambling. This is all vile. Today the ingrates have given up from your system, so do not revere them, but revere Me. Today I have perfected your system for you, completed My blessings upon you, and I have accepted peaceful surrenderas the system for you. So, whoever is forced by severe hunger and not seeking sin, then God is Forgiving, Compassionate.
