کیا وہ لوگ جو اللہ کی کتاب سے منسلک ہیں ان کا کھانا اور ان کی عورتوں سے نکاح اسلام میں حلال ہیں؟

Surah Al-Ma'idah: 5 - Ayah: 5
Arabic
اَلۡيَوۡمَ اُحِلَّ لَـكُمُ الطَّيِّبٰتُ​ ؕ وَطَعَامُ الَّذِيۡنَ اُوۡتُوۡا الۡكِتٰبَ حِلٌّ لَّـکُمۡ وَطَعَامُكُمۡ حِلٌّ لَّهُمۡ​ وَالۡمُحۡصَنٰتُ مِنَ الۡمُؤۡمِنٰتِ وَالۡمُحۡصَنٰتُ مِنَ الَّذِيۡنَ اُوۡتُوا الۡـكِتٰبَ مِنۡ قَبۡلِكُمۡ اِذَاۤ اٰتَيۡتُمُوۡهُنَّ اُجُوۡرَهُنَّ مُحۡصِنِيۡنَ غَيۡرَ مُسَافِحِيۡنَ وَلَا مُتَّخِذِىۡۤ اَخۡدَانٍ​ؕ وَمَنۡ يَّكۡفُرۡ بِالۡاِيۡمَانِ فَقَدۡ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهٗ وَهُوَ فِى الۡاٰخِرَةِ مِنَ الۡخٰسِرِيۡنَ‏ 
English
This day all good things have been made lawful to you. The food of the People of the Book is permitted to you, and your food is permitted to them. And permitted to you are chaste women, be they either from among the believers or from among those who have received the Book before you,provided you become their protectors in wedlock after paying them their bridal-due, rather than go around committing fornication and taking them as secret-companions. The work of he who refuses to follow the way of faith will go waste, and he will be among the utter losers in the Hereafter.
Urdu
Aaj tumhare liye sari paak cheezein halal kardi gayi hain, ehle kitab ka khana tumhare liye halal hai aur tumhara khana unke liye aur mehfooz auratein bhi tumhare liye halal hain khwa woh ehle iman ke giroh se hon ya un qaumon mein se jinko tumse pehle kitaab di gayi thi, bashart-ye-ke tum unke mehar ada karke nikah mein unke muhafiz (protectors) bano, na yeh ke azad shehwat (lust) rani karne lago ya chori chupe ashnaiyan karo. Aur jo kisi ne iman ki rawish par chalne se inkar kiya to uska sara karnama e zindagi zaye ho jayega aur woh aakhirat mein diwaliya (among the utter losers) hoga
