Qur'an, Sura 60
In the name of Allah, the
Beneficent, the Merciful.
[60.1] O you who believe! do not take My enemy and your enemy
for friends: would you offer them love while they deny what has
come to you of the truth, driving out the Apostle and yourselves
because you believe in Allah, your Lord? If you go forth
struggling hard in My path and seeking My pleasure, would you
manifest love to them? And I know what you conceal and what you
manifest; and whoever of you does this, he indeed has gone
astray from the straight path.
[60.2] If they find you, they will be your enemies, and will
stretch forth towards you their hands and their tongues with
evil, and they ardently desire that you may disbelieve.
[60.3] Your relationship would not profit you, nor your children
on the day of resurrection; He will decide between you; and
Allah sees what you do.
[60.4] Indeed, there is for you a good example in Ibrahim and
those with him when they said to their people: Surely we are
clear of you and of what you serve besides Allah; we declare
ourselves to be clear of you, and enmity and hatred have
appeared between us and you forever until you believe in Allah
alone-- but not in what Ibrahim said to his father: I would
certainly ask forgiveness for you, and I do not control for you
aught from Allah-- Our Lord! on Thee do we rely, and to Thee do
we turn, and to Thee is the eventual coming:
[60.5] Our Lord! do not make us a trial for those who
disbelieve, and forgive us, our Lord! surely Thou art the
Mighty, the Wise.
[60.6] Certainly there is for you in them a good example, for
him who fears Allah and the last day; and whoever turns back,
then surely Allah is the Self-sufficient, the Praised.
[60.7] It may be that Allah will bring about friendship between
you and those whom you hold to be your enemies among them; and
Allah is Powerful; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[60.8] Allah does not forbid you respecting those who have not
made war against you on account of (your) religion, and have not
driven you forth from your homes, that you show them kindness
and deal with them justly; surely Allah loves the doers of
justice.
[60.9] Allah only forbids you respecting those who made war upon
you on account of (your) religion, and drove you forth from your
homes and backed up (others) in your expulsion, that you make
friends with them, and whoever makes friends with them, these
are the unjust.
[60.10] O you who believe! when believing women come to you
flying, then examine them; Allah knows best their faith; then if
you find them to be believing women, do not send them back to
the unbelievers, neither are these (women) lawful for them, nor
are those (men) lawful for them, and give them what they have
spent; and no blame attaches to you in marrying them when you
give them their dowries; and hold not to the ties of marriage of
unbelieving women, and ask for what you have spent, and kt them
ask for what they have spent. That is Allah's judgment; He
judges between you, and Allah is Knowing, Wise.
[60.11] And if anything (out of the dowries) of your wives has
passed away from you to the unbelievers, then your turn comes,
give to those whose wives have gone away the like of what they
have spent, and be careful of (your duty to) Allah in Whom you
believe.
[60.12] O Prophet! when believing women come to you giving you a
pledge that they will not associate aught with Allah, and will
not steal, and will not commit fornication, and will not kill
their children, and will not bring a calumny which they have
forged of themselves, and will not disobey you in what is good,
accept their pledge, and ask forgiveness for them from Allah;
surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[60.13] O you who believe! do not make friends with a people
with whom Allah is wroth; indeed they despair of the hereafter
as the unbelievers despair of those in tombs.
