In the Name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful
118. Ya ayyuha
allatheena amanoo la tattakhithoo bitanatan
min doonikum la ya/loonakum khabalan waddoo ma AAanittum
qad badati albaghdao min afwahihim wama tukhfee sudooruhum
akbaru qad bayyanna lakumu al-ayati in kuntum taAAqiloona
3:118. O you
who believe! Develop no intimacy with those outside your circle who leave no
stone unturned to ruin you, loving to see you suffer. Hatred spews from their
mouths, and what their hearts conceal is far worse. We have certainly made the
Signs/Verses clear to you if you could but understand.133
133. This Verse, along with the next two Verses 119 and
120, clearly spells out the description of the people who should be shunned. In
Verses 60:8 and 60:9, the Qur'aan makes it further clear that Allah does not
forbid the believers to deal justly and kindly with those who had not fought
against them because of their religion and had not driven them out of their
houses.
