28. Let not the
believers take disbelievers for their friends in preference to believers.
Whoso doeth that hath no connection with Allah unless (it be) that ye but
guard yourselves against them, taking (as it were) security. And Allah
biddeth you beware (only) of Himself. And unto Allah is the journeying.

Commentary
It
was described in the previous lesson that Allah Almighty is Able to give honor
and sovereignty to whom He desires and Can snatch these things from whom He
wills. Each kind of government and empire, prestige, honor and possession are
in His control. Therefore, it does not suit the Muslims, who really believe in
Him, if they increase friendship voluntarily or without knowledge with the
disbelievers, enemies of Allah Almighty, and Infidels, leaving their Muslim
brothers or considering them not enough. The enemies of Allah Almighty and His
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) can never be their
friends. One, who opposes it, should think about himself that he has no concern
with the love of Allah Almighty. Entire hopes of a Muslim should be related
only to Allah Almighty.
Three
forms of good behavior are possible into the mankind:
1.
Friendship.
2.
Apparent politeness.
3.
Kindness and doing good.
Religious
Scholars have explained that first form, that is to say; real friendship with
the Infidels is unlawful in all conditions. Third form (Kindness and doing good)
is legal only with those Infidels who would never be ready to fight against the
Muslims. Second form (Apparent politeness) is legal only under three
conditions:
·
For self protection
·
Trying that he should embrace Islam
·
In the form that you are a host, it means that when any Infidel
comes to you as a guest.
Besides
these, three forms, friendship is not allowed anyway to get personal advantage
or wealth, but when there is danger that he will put obstacles in the way of
religion; then also, no friendship is allowed.
Allah Almighty frightens the Muslims from His
torment who keep friendship with the Infidels so that they would bear in mind
that at last every person will have to go back towards Him. He will reward or
punish in accord with everyone’s deeds and it will not be possible to be saved
from His grasp.
