[9:36] Surely the reckoning of months, in the sight of Allah, is twelve months,4

same time make lawful what Allah has forbidden.7 Their foul acts
seem fair to them. Allah does not direct those who deny the Truth to the Right
Way.

[9:40] It will matter little if you do not help the Prophet, for Allah surely
helped him when the unbelievers drove him out of his home and he was but one
of the two when they were in the cave, and when he said to his companion: "Do
not grieve. Allah is with us."2 Then Allah caused His tranquillity
to descend upon him, and supported him with hosts you did not see, He humbled
the word of the unbelievers. As for Allah's Word, it is inherently uppermost.
