surely the reckoning of months in the sight of allah is twelve months laid down in allahs decree on the day when he created the heavens and the earth and out of these months four are sacred. that is the true ordainment. do not therefore wrong yourselves with respect to these months. and fight all together against those who associate others with allah in his divinity in the manner that they fight against you all together and know well that allah is with the godfearing.
إن عدة الشهور عند الله اثنا عشر شهرا في كتاب الله يوم خلق السماوات والأرض منها أربعة حرم ذلك الدين القيم فلا تظلموا فيهن أنفسكم وقاتلوا المشركين كافة كما يقاتلونكم كافة واعلموا أن الله مع المتقين
