- O ye who believe! Choose not My enemy and your enemy for
allies. Do ye give them friendship when they disbelieve in that truth
which hath come unto you, driving out the messenger and you because ye
believe in Allah, your Lord ? If ye have come forth to strive in My
way and seeking My good pleasure, (show them not friendship). Do ye
show friendship unto them in secret, when I am Best Aware of what ye
hide and what ye proclaim ? And whosoever doeth it among you, he
verily hath strayed from the right way.
- If they have the upper hand of you, they will be your foes,
and will stretch out their hands and their tongues toward you with
evil (intent), and they long for you to disbelieve.
- Your ties of kindred and your children will avail you naught
upon the Day of Resurrection. He will part you. Allah is Seer of what
ye do.
- There is a goodly pattern for you in Abraham and those with
him, when they told their folk: Lo! we are guiltless of you and all
that ye worship beside Allah. We have done with you. And there hath
arisen between us and you hostility and hate for ever until ye believe
in Allah only - save that which Abraham promised his father (when he
said): I will ask forgiveness for thee, though I own nothing for thee
from Allah - Our Lord! In Thee we put our trust, and unto Thee we turn
repentant, and unto Thee is the journeying.
- Our Lord! Make us not a prey for those who disbelieve, and
forgive us, our Lord! Lo! Thou, only Thou, are the Mighty, the Wise.
- Verily ye have in them a goodly pattern for everyone who
looketh to Allah and the Last Day. And whosoever may turn away, lo!
still Allah, He is the Absolute, the Owner of Praise.
- It may be that Allah will ordain love between you and those of
them with whom ye are at enmity. Allah is Mighty, and Allah is
Forgiving, Merciful.
- Allah forbiddeth you not those who warred not against you on
account of religion and drove you not out from your homes, that ye
should show them kindness and deal justly with them. Lo! Allah loveth
the just dealers.
- Allah forbiddeth you only those who warred against you on
account of religion and have driven you out from your homes and helped
to drive you out, that ye make friends of them. Whosoever maketh
friends of them - (All) such are wrong-doers.
- O ye who believe! When believing women come unto you as
fugitives, examine them. Allah is Best Aware of their faith. Then, if
ye know them for true believers, send them not back unto the
disbelievers. They are not lawful for them (the disbelievers), nor are
they (the disbelievers) lawful for them. And give them (the
disbelievers) that which they have spent (upon them). And it is no sin
for you to marry such women when ye have given them their dues. And
hold not to the ties of disbelieving women; and ask for (the return
of) that which ye have spent; and let them (the disbelievers) ask for
that which they have spent. That is the judgment of Allah. He judgeth
between you. Allah is Knower, Wise.
- And if any of your wives have gone from you unto the
disbelievers and afterward ye have your turn (of triumph), then give
unto those whose wives have gone the like of that which they have
spent, and keep your duty to Allah in Whom ye are believers.
- O Prophet! If believing women come unto thee, taking oath of
allegiance unto thee that they will ascribe no thing as partner unto
Allah, and will neither steal nor commit adultery nor kill their
children, nor produce any lie that they have devised between their
hands and feet, nor disobey thee in what is right, then accept their
allegiance and ask Allah to forgive them. Lo! Allah is Forgiving,
Merciful.
- O ye who believe! Be not friendly with a folk with whom Allah
is wroth, (a folk) who have despaired of the Hereafter as the
disbelievers despair of those who are in the graves.
