Quote:
{22:30} That [has been commanded], and whoever honors the sacred ordinances of God - it is best for him in the sight of his Lord. And permitted to you are the grazing livestock, except what is recited to you. So avoid the uncleanliness of idols and avoid false statement,

I suggest,
{22:30} That, and whoever aggrandizes the rites of God, then it is good for him in the sight of his Lord. And permitted to you [to eat] are the livestock, except what is recited to you. So avoid the uncleanliness of idols and avoid the uttering of falsehood,

Quote:
{22:31} Inclining [only] to God, not associating [anything] with Him. And he who associates with God - it is as though he had fallen from the sky and was snatched by the birds or the wind carried him down into a remote place.

I suggest,
{22:31} Inclining to God, not associating with Him [anything in worship]. And whoever associates with God [anything in worship] - it is as though he had crashed from the sky then birds snatch him or the wind sweeps down with him into a remote place.

Quote:
{22:32} That [is so]. And whoever honors the symbols of God - indeed, it is from the piety of hearts.

I suggest,
{22:32} That. And whoever aggrandizes the rites of God , then verily, it is from the piety of hearts.

Quote:
{22:33} For you the animals marked for sacrifice are benefits for a specified term; then their place of sacrifice is at the ancient House.

I suggest,
{22:33} For you in them (livestock) are benefits for a named term; then their berth is toward the ancient House.
