6:119

وَمَا لَكُمْ أَلَّا تَأْكُلُوا۟ مِمَّا ذُكِرَ ٱسْمُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَقَدْ فَصَّلَ لَكُم مَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ إِلَّا مَا ٱضْطُرِرْتُمْ إِلَيْهِ ۗ وَإِنَّ كَثِيرًۭا لَّيُضِلُّونَ بِأَهْوَآئِهِم بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ ۗ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِٱلْمُعْتَدِينَ ١١٩

Saheeh International

And why should you not eat of that upon which the name of Allah has been mentioned while He has explained in detail to you what He has forbidden you, excepting that to which you are compelled. And indeed do many lead [others] astray through their [own] inclinations without knowledge. Indeed, your Lord - He is most knowing of the transgressors.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

وَمَا لَكُمْ أَلاَّ تَأْكُلُواْ مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَقَدْ فَصَّلَ لَكُم مَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْAnd why should you not eat of that on which Allah's Name has been mentioned, while He has explained to you what is forbidden to you...meaning, He has explained and made clear to you what He has prohibited for you in detail,إِلاَّ مَا اضْطُرِرْتُمْ إِلَيْهِexcept under compulsion of necessity.In which case, you are allowed to eat whatever you can find.Allah next mentions the ignorance of the idolators in their misguided ideas, such as eating dead animals and what was sacrificed while other than Allah's Name was mentioned when slaughtering them.Allah said,وَإِنَّ كَثِيرًا لَّيُضِلُّونَ بِأَهْوَايِهِم بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِالْمُعْتَدِينَAnd surely, many do lead astray by their own desires through lack of knowledge. Certainly your Lord knows best the transgressors.He has complete knowledge of their transgression, lies and inventions
