Al-An'am 151

قُلْ تَعَالَوْا اَتْلُ مَا حَرَّمَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ اَلَّا تُشْرِكُوا بِه۪ شَيْـًٔاۜ وَبِالْوَالِدَيْنِ اِحْسَانًاۚ وَلَا تَقْتُلُٓوا اَوْلَادَكُمْ مِنْ اِمْلَاقٍۜ نَحْنُ نَرْزُقُكُمْ وَاِيَّاهُمْۚ وَلَا تَقْرَبُوا الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَۚ وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا النَّفْسَ الَّت۪ي حَرَّمَ اللّٰهُ اِلَّا بِالْحَقِّۜ ذٰلِكُمْ وَصّٰيكُمْ بِه۪ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ ۝١٥١

Perhaps you will use your reason." (6)
