لَّا
يَتَّخِذِ
الْمُؤْمِنُونَ
الْكَافِرِينَ
أَوْلِيَاءَ
مِن
دُونِ
الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
وَمَن
يَفْعَلْ
ذَلِكَ
فَلَيْسَ
مِنَ
اللَّهِ
فِي
شَيْءٍ
إِلَّا
أَن
تَتَّقُوا
مِنْهُمْ
تُقَاةً
وَيُحَذِّرُكُمُ
اللَّهُ
نَفْسَهُ
وَإِلَى
اللَّهِ
الْمَصِيرُ
lā yattakhidhi l-muʾminūna l-kāfirīna ʾawliyāʾa min dūni l-muʾminīna wa-man yafʿal dhālika fa-laysa mina llāhi fī shayʾin ʾillā ʾan tattaqū minhum tuqātan wa-yuḥadhdhirukumu llāhu nafsahū wa-ʾilā llāhi l-maṣīru
The faithful should not take the faithless for allies instead of the faithful, and Allah will have nothing to do with those who do that, except when you are wary of them, out of caution. Allah warns you to beware of [disobeying] Him, and toward Allah is the return.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Let not the believers Take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah: except by way of precaution, that ye may Guard yourselves from them. But Allah cautions you (To remember) Himself; for the final goal is to Allah.
