Sura 9
Aya 37
37
إِنَّمَا النَّسيءُ زِيادَةٌ فِي الكُفرِ ۖ يُضَلُّ بِهِ الَّذينَ كَفَروا يُحِلّونَهُ عامًا وَيُحَرِّمونَهُ عامًا لِيُواطِئوا عِدَّةَ ما حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ فَيُحِلّوا ما حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ ۚ زُيِّنَ لَهُم سوءُ أَعمالِهِم ۗ وَاللَّهُ لا يَهدِي القَومَ الكافِرينَ

M. M. Pickthall

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.
