the number of months with god is twelve in accordance with gods law since the day he created the heavens and the earth. of these four are holy. this is the straight reckoning. so do not exceed yourselves during them but fight the idolaters to the end as they fight you in like manner and remember god is with those who preserve themselves from evil and do the right.
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
