إِنَّ عِدَّةَ ٱلشُّهُورِ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِى كِتَـٰبِ ٱللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ مِنْهَآ أَرْبَعَةٌ حُرُمٌ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلدِّينُ ٱلْقَيِّمُ ۚ فَلَا تَظْلِمُوا۟ فِيهِنَّ أَنفُسَكُمْ ۚ وَقَـٰتِلُوا۟ ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ كَآفَّةً كَمَا يُقَـٰتِلُونَكُمْ كَآفَّةً ۚ وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ

Translations of Quran 9:36
EnglishTalal Itani

The number of months, according to Allah, is twelve months—in the decree of Allah—since the Day He created the heavens and the earth, of which four are sacred. This is the correct religion. So do not wrong yourselves during them. And fight the polytheists collectively, as they fight you collectively, and know that Allah is with the righteous.

EnglishPickthall, 1930

Lo! the number of the months with Allah is twelve months by Allah's ordinance in the day that He created the heavens and the earth. Four of them are sacred: that is the right religion. So wrong not yourselves in them. And wage war on all of the idolaters as they are waging war on all of you. And know that Allah is with those who keep their duty (unto Him).

TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935

Doğrusu, ayların sayısı Allah yanında on iki aydır, Gökleri, Yeri halkettiği günkü Allah yazısında; bunlardan dördü haram olanlardır, bu işte en pâydâr, en doğru dindir, onun için bunlar hakkında nefislerinize zulmetmeyin de müşrikler size kâffeten harbettikleri gibi siz de onlara kâffeten harbedin ve bilin ki Allah korunanlarla beraberdir

FrenchKazimirski, 1840

Le nombre des mois est de douze devant Dieu, tel il est dans le livre de Dieu, depuis le jour ou il créa les cieux et la terre. Quatre de ces mois sont sacrés ; c’est la croyance constante. Pendant ces mois, n’agissez point avec iniquité envers vous-mêmes, mais combattez les idolâtres dans tous les mois, de même qu’ils vous combattent dans tous les temps, et sachez que Dieu est avec ceux qui le craignent.

DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French

Het volkomen getal van Gods maanden is twaalf, die door Gods boek werden ingesteld, op den dag, dat hij de hemelen en de aarde schiep: vier daarvan zijn geheiligd. Dit is de ware godsdienst. Handel hierin dus niet onrechtvaardig met u zelven. Maar val de afgodendienaars in alle maanden aan, daar zij u evens in alle maanden aanvallen, en weet, dat God met degenen is die hem vreezen.

ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French

Il numero dei mesi è di dodici innanzi a Dio così è nel libro di Dio dal giorno in cui creò i cieli, e la terra. Quattro di questi mesi sono sacri; è di fede; durante questi mesi non agite iniquamente verso voi stessi, ma combattete gl’idolatri in tutti i mesi, come essi vi combattono in tutti i tempi, e sappiate che Dio è con coloro che lo temono.
