الشَّهْرُ
الْحَرَامُ
بِالشَّهْرِ
الْحَرَامِ
وَالْحُرُمَاتُ
قِصَاصٌ
فَمَنِ

عَلَيْكُمْ
فَاعْتَدُوا
عَلَيْهِ
بِمِثْلِ
مَا
اعْتَدَى
عَلَيْكُمْ
وَاتَّقُوا
اللَّهَ
وَاعْلَمُوا

ash-shahru l-ḥarāmu bi-sh-shahri l-ḥarāmi wa-l-ḥurumātu qiṣāṣun fa-mani ʿtadā ʿalaykum fa-ʿtadū ʿalayhi bi-mithli mā ʿtadā ʿalaykum wa-ttaqū llāha wa-ʿlamū ʾanna llāha maʿa l-muttaqīna
A sacred month for a sacred month, and all sanctities require retribution. So should anyone aggress against you, assail him in the manner he assailed you, and be wary of Allah, and know that Allah is with the Godwary.
— Ali Quli Qarai
The prohibited month for the prohibited month,- and so for all things prohibited,- there is the law of equality. If then any one transgresses the prohibition against you, Transgress ye likewise against him. But fear Allah, and know that Allah is with those who restrain themselves.
