They ask you about the sacred month - about fighting therein. Say, "Fighting therein is great sin, but averting people from the way of Allāh and disbelief in Him and preventing access to al-Masjid al-Ḥarām and the expulsion of its people therefrom are greater evil in the sight of Allāh. And fitnah is greater than killing." And they will continue to fight you until they turn you back from your religion if they are able. And whoever of you reverts from his religion to disbelief and dies while he is a disbeliever - for those, their deeds have become worthless in this world and the Hereafter, and those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.
