O ye who believe! Choose not My enemy and your enemy for allies. Do ye give them friendship when they disbelieve in that truth whichhath come unto you, driving out the messenger and you because ye believe inAllah, your Lord? If ye have come forth to strive in My way and seeking Mygood pleasure, (show them not friendship). Do ye show friendship unto themin secret, when I am Best Aware of what ye hide and what ye proclaim? Andwhosoever doeth it among you, he verily hath strayed from the right way.
