یَـأَیُّهَا الَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا لاَ تَتَّخِذُوا الْیَهُودَ وَالنَّصَـرَى أَوْلِیَآءَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِیَآءُ بَعْض وَمَن یَتَوَلَّهُم مِّنکُمْ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْهُمْ إِنَّ اللهَ لاَیَهْدِى الْقَوْمَ الظَّـلِمِینَ (51)

51- O, YOU WHO BELIEVE! DO NOT TAKE THE JEWS AND CHRISTIANS AS FRIENDS. SOME OF THEM ARE FRIENDS TO SOME OTHER. AND WHOEVER OF YOU MAKES FRIENDS WITH THEM, THEN HE IS ONE OF THEM; THAT ALLAH GUIDES NOT A PEOPLE WHO ARE OPPRESSORS.

فَتَرَى الَّذِینَ فِى قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ یُسَـرِعُونَ فِیهِمْ یَقُولُونَ نَخْشَى أَن تُصِیبَنَا دَآئِرَةٌ فَعَسَى اللهُ أَن یَأْتِىَ بِالْفَتْحِ أَوْ أَمْر مِّنْ عِندِهِ فَیُصْبِحُوا عَلَى مَآ أَسَرُّوا فِى أَنفُسِهِمْ نَـدِمِینَ (52)

52- YET YOU SEE THOSE IN WHOSE HEARTS IS A DISEASE, VYING WITH ONE ANOTHER IN THEM (TO BEFRIEND THEM)? THEY SAY:- `WE FEAR A TURN OF FORTUNE TO SMITE US.'

THEN MIGHT IT BE THAT TOO, THAT ALLAH BRINGS A VICTORY, OR AN AFFAIR, (SOMETHING NEW AND UNEXPECTED) FROM HIM, AND THEN THEY WILL FIND THEMSELVES REMORSEFUL FOR WHAT THEY HID IN THEMSELVES.

وَیَقُولُ الَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا أَهَـؤُلاَءِ الَّذِینَ أَقْسَمُوا بِاللهِ جَهْدَ أَیْمَـنِهِمْ إِنَّهُمْ لَـمَعَکُمْ حَبِطَتْ أَعْمَـلُهُمْ فَأَصْبَحُوا خَـسِرِینَ (53)

53- AND THOSE WHO BELIEVE SAY:- ARE THESE (HYPOCRITES) THEY WHO SWORE BY ALLAH, THEIR MOST EARNEST OATHS, THAT THEY WERE WITH YOU? THEIR WORKS HAVE FAILD, AND THEY BECAME LOSERS.
