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.
