O ye who believe! Take not my enemies and yours as friends (or protectors),- offering them (your) love, even though they have rejected the Truth that has come to you, and have (on the contrary) driven out the Prophet and yourselves (from your homes), (simply) because ye believe in Allah your Lord! If ye have come out to strive in My Way and to seek My Good Pleasure, (take them not as friends), holding secret converse of love (and friendship) with them: for I know full well all that ye conceal and all that ye reveal. And any of you that does this has strayed from the Straight Path.

信道的人们啊！你们不要以我的敌人和你们的敌人为朋友，而传送消息给他们，以示亲爱。他们不信降临你们的真理，他们为你们信仰真主--你们的主--而将使者和你们驱逐出境。如果你们从故乡迁出，是由於为我而奋斗，是由於寻求我的喜悦，（那么，你们不要以他们为朋友）。你们秘密地传送消息给他们，以示亲爱，其实，我知道你们所隐匿的和你们所显示的。你们中谁做这件事，谁已背离正道。
