يَا أَيُّهَا
الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا
لَا
تَتَّخِذُوا
الَّذِينَ
اتَّخَذُوا
دِينَكُمْ
هُزُوًا
وَلَعِبًا
مِّنَ
الَّذِينَ
أُوتُوا
الْكِتَابَ
مِن
قَبْلِكُمْ
وَالْكُفَّارَ
أَوْلِيَاءَ
وَاتَّقُوا
اللَّهَ
إِن
كُنتُم
مُّؤْمِنِينَ
yā-ʾayyuhā lladhīna ʾāmanū lā tattakhidhū lladhīna ttakhadhū dīnakum huzuwan wa-laʿiban mina lladhīna ʾūtū l-kitāba min qablikum wa-l-kuffāra ʾawliyāʾa wa-ttaqū llāha ʾin kuntum muʾminīna
O you who have faith! Do not take those who take your religion in derision and play, from among those who were given the Book before you, and the infidels, as friends, and be wary of Allah, should you be faithful.
— Ali Quli Qarai
O ye who believe! take not for friends and protectors those who take your religion for a mockery or sport,- whether among those who received the Scripture before you, or among those who reject Faith; but fear ye Allah, if ye have faith (indeed).
