This article examines the lexical-semantic and linguocultural features of food names in religious texts. Based on the Qur'an and Hadith, it explores the role of gastronomic vocabulary in religious discourse and analyzes its denotative, normative, and symbolic meanings. Particular attention is paid to semantic oppositions such as halal–haram, rizq–blessing, gratitude–wastefulness, and pure–impure, which reveal the spiritual and ethical dimensions of food-related lexical units. The study also investigates the religious, cultural, and conceptual significance of food names such as milk, honey, dates, grapes, olives, meat, and other food products. The findings contribute to the study of the religious-gastronomic lexicon of the Uzbek language, religious discourse, ethnolinguistics, and linguocultural studies, while also providing a deeper understanding of the conceptual representation of food in the linguistic worldview.
