The Hoof and Cruelty in the Three Religions
Before dealing with the topic of the Hoof in Quran versus Bible versus sciences, it is mandatory to remember that the total words in the Bible are 788,280 while the total words in the Quran are 77,473. It follows that, the Bible is more than 10 times the Quran word-wise. The Hoof is mentioned 18 times in the Bible and only once in the Quran, i.e. the Bible mentions the Hoof 18 times as does the Quran. In other words, the Bible has the potential of more than 10 times (word-wise) and 18 times (subject-wise) than the Quran to talk about the Hoof.

The Hoof in the Bible:
The Hoof's verses versus the Humanity:
The Lord says: I will give you hoofs of bronze and you will break to pieces many nations,
Micah 4:13
"Rise and thresh, O Daughter of Zion, for I will give you horns of iron; I will give you hoofs of bronze and you will break to pieces many nations." You will devote their ill-gotten gains to the Lord, their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
The Lord says: I will destroy all her cattle from beside abundant waters Ezekiel 32:13
I will destroy all her cattle from beside abundant waters no longer to be stirred by the foot of man or muddied by the hoofs of cattle.
The Lord says: The hoofs of his horses will trample all your streets; he will kill your people with the sword,
Ezekiel 26:11
The hoofs of his horses will trample all your streets; he will kill your people with the sword, and your strong pillars will fall to the ground
The Lord says: I am going to raise up a shepherd over the land who will not care for the lost, or seek the young, or heal the injured,

The Hoof's verses versus the Sciences:
Biologists say that the Coney DOES NOT chews the cud
Biologists say that the Rabbit DOES NOT chews the cud
However, the Bible says that the Coney chews the cud and the Rabbit chews the cud. Hence, the Bible contradicts with the Science (Biology).
Leviticus 11:5
The Coney, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you.
Leviticus 11:6
The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you.
The other Hoof's verses
Exodus 10:26
Our livestock too must go with us; not a hoof is to be left behind. We have to use some of them in worshiping the Lord our God, and until we get there we will not know what we are to use to worship the Lord."
Leviticus 11:3
You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud.
Leviticus 11:4
"'There are some that only chew the cud or only have a split hoof, but you must not eat them. The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you.
Leviticus 11:5
The Coney, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you.
Leviticus 11:6
The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you.
Leviticus 11:7
And the pig, though it has a split hoof completely divided, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you.
Leviticus 11:26
"'Every animal that has a split hoof not completely divided or that does not chew the cud is unclean for you; whoever touches the carcass of any of them will be unclean.
Deuteronomy 14:6
You may eat any animal that has a split hoof divided in two and that chews the cud.
Deuteronomy 14:7
However, of those that chew the cud or that have a split hoof completely divided you may not eat the camel, the rabbit or the Coney. Although they chew the cud, they do not have a split hoof; they are ceremonially unclean for you.
Deuteronomy 14:8
The pig is also unclean; although it has a split hoof, it does not chew the cud. You are not to eat their meat or touch their carcasses.
Judges 5:22
Then thundered the horses' hoofs- galloping, galloping go his mighty steeds.
Psalm 69:31
This will please the Lord more than an ox, more than a bull with its horns and hoofs.
Isaiah 5:28
Their arrows are sharp, all their bows are strung; their horses' hoofs seem like flint, their chariot wheels like a whirlwind.

The Hoof in the Quran:
The Quran says that the reason that Allah forbade the Jews all with undivided hoofs is because of their transgressions. However, if they belie you, then say: your lord is the lord of all-encompassing mercy; and his punishment cannot be averted from the evildoers people
Surah 6:146 (Four different translations)
QARIB: we forbade the Jews all with undivided hoofs and the fat of sheep and cattle, except what is on their backs and entrails, and what is mixed with their bones. as such we recompensed them for their transgress ions. Indeed, we are truthful.
SHAKIR: and to those who were Jews we made unlawful every animal having claws, and of oxen and sheep we made unlawful to them the fat of both, except such as was on their backs or the entrails or what was mixed with bones: this was a punishment we gave them on account of their rebellion, and we are surely truthful
PICKTHAL: unto those who are Jews we forbade every animal with claws. and of the oxen and the sheep forbade we unto them the fat thereof save that upon the backs or the entrails, or that which is mixed with the bone. that we awarded them for their rebellion. and lo! we verily are truthful.
YUSUFALI: for those who followed the Jewish law, we forbade every (animal) with undivided hoof, and we forbade them that fat of the ox and the sheep, except what adheres to their backs or their entrails, or is mixed up with a bone: this in recompense for their willful disobedience: for we are true (in our ordinances).
Then read the next verse:
6:147 (Four different translations)
QARIB: if they belie you, say: 'your lord is the owner of all encompassing mercy, but his might cannot be withheld from the nation, the evildoers. '
SHAKIR: but if they give you the lie, then say: your lord is the lord of all-encompassing mercy; and his punishment cannot be averted from the guilty people
PICKTHAL: so if they give the lie to thee (Muhammad), say: your lord is a lord of all-embracing mercy, and his wrath will never be withdrawn from guilty folk.
YUSUFALI: if they accuse thee of falsehood, say: "your lord is full of mercy all-embracing; but from people in guilt never will his wrath be turned back.
