انما النسيء زيادة في الكفر يضل به الذين كفروا يحلونه عاما ويحرمونه عاما ليواطئوا عدة ما حرم الله فيحلوا ما حرم الله زين لهم سوء اعمالهم والله لا يهدي القوم الكافرين

Verily the transposing (Of a prohibited month) Is an addition to Unbelief: The Unbelievers are led To wrong thereby: for they make It lawful one year, And forbidden another year, In order to adjust the number Of months forbidden by God And make such forbidden ones Lawful. The evil of their course Seems pleasing to them. But God guideth not Those who reject Faith.
