إِنَّمَا ٱلنَّسِىٓءُ زِيَادَةٌۭ فِى ٱلْكُفْرِ ۖ يُضَلُّ بِهِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُحِلُّونَهُۥ عَامًۭا وَيُحَرِّمُونَهُۥ عَامًۭا لِّيُوَاطِـُٔوا۟ عِدَّةَ مَا حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ فَيُحِلُّوا۟ مَا حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ زُيِّنَ لَهُمْ سُوٓءُ أَعْمَٰلِهِمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ
French
Muhammad Hamidullah · Le Saint Coran, traduction Muhammad Hamidullah
Le report d'un mois sacré à un autre est un surcroît de mécréance. Par là, les mécréants sont égarés: une année, ils le font profane, et une année, ils le font sacré, afin d'ajuster le nombre de mois qu'Allah a fait sacrés. Ainsi rendent-ils profane ce qu'Allah a fait sacré. Leurs méfaits leurs sont enjolivés. Et Allah ne guide pas les gens mécréants.
English
Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall · The Meaning of the Glorious Koran (1930)
Postponement (of a sacred month) is only an excess of disbelief whereby those who disbelieve are misled; they allow it one year and forbid it (another) year, that they may make up the number of the months which Allah hath hallowed, so that they allow that which Allah hath forbidden. The evil of their deeds is made fairseeming unto them. Allah guideth not the disbelieving folk.
