0 SAQ 60. She That Is To Be Examined 60

O ye who believe! Choose not My enemy and your enemy for allies. Do ye give them friendship when they disbelieve? 60:1

Trivia:

My enemy and your enemy
IntoleranceFamily Values 60:1-3

1O ye who believe! Choose not My enemy and your enemy for allies. Do ye give them friendship when they disbelieve in that truth which hath come unto you, driving out the messenger and you because ye believe in Allah, your Lord? If ye have come forth to strive in My way and seeking My good pleasure, (show them not friendship). Do ye show friendship unto them in secret, when I am Best Aware of what ye hide and what ye proclaim? And whosoever doeth it among you, he verily hath strayed from the right way.

2 If they have the upper hand of you, they will be your foes, and will stretch out their hands and their tongues toward you with evil (intent), and they long for you to disbelieve.

3Your ties of kindred and your children will avail you naught upon the Day of Resurrection. He will part you. Allah is Seer of what ye do.

Believers: Don't be friends with my enemy and your enemy.

Don't be friends with disbelievers,

and have no secret friends among them.

If they have authority over you,

they will be your enemies and do evil to you,

and will entice you to disbelieve.

Your family and children won't help you on the day of resurrection.

Allah sees what you're doing.

Be like Abraham:
Hate your family if they don't believe in Allah
Family ValuesIntolerance 60:4-9

4There is a goodly pattern for you in Abraham and those with him, when they told their folk: Lo! we are guiltless of you and all that ye worship beside Allah. We have done with you. And there hath arisen between us and you hostility and hate for ever until ye believe in Allah only - save that which Abraham promised his father (when he said): I will ask forgiveness for thee, though I own nothing for thee from Allah - Our Lord! In Thee we put our trust, and unto Thee we turn repentant, and unto Thee is the journeying.

5 Our Lord! Make us not a prey for those who disbelieve, and forgive us, our Lord! Lo! Thou, only Thou, are the Mighty, the Wise.

6 Verily ye have in them a goodly pattern for everyone who looketh to Allah and the Last Day. And whosoever may turn away, lo! still Allah, He is the Absolute, the Owner of Praise.

7 It may be that Allah will ordain love between you and those of them with whom ye are at enmity. Allah is Mighty, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

8 Allah forbiddeth you not those who warred not against you on account of religion and drove you not out from your homes, that ye should show them kindness and deal justly with them. Lo! Allah loveth the just dealers.

Abraham set a good example for you when he said to his family,

We reject everything you worship besides Allah,

and we reject you.

We will hate you forever until you believe only in Allah.

9Allah forbiddeth you only those who warred against you on account of religion and have driven you out from your homes and helped to drive you out, that ye make friends of them. Whosoever maketh friends of them - (All) such are wrong- doers.

Allah forbids you to be friends with those who fought against you because of your religion.

A lie devised between their hands and feet
WomenSexAbsurdityIntolerance 60:10-13

10O ye who believe! When believing women come unto you as fugitives, examine them. Allah is Best Aware of their faith. Then, if ye know them for true believers, send them not back unto the disbelievers. They are not lawful for them (the disbelievers), nor are they (the disbelievers) lawful for them. And give them (the disbelievers) that which they have spent (upon them). And it is no sin for you to marry such women when ye have given them their dues. And hold not to the ties of disbelieving women; and ask for (the return of) that which ye have spent; and let them (the disbelievers) ask for that which they have spent.That is the judgment of Allah. He judgeth between you. Allah is Knower, Wise.

When believing women come to you as fugitives, examine them.

If they are believers, don't send them back to the disbelievers.

You may marry them after you have paid dues for them.

Return the disbelieving women back to the disbelievers (after they pay you for them).

11 And if any of your wives have gone from you unto the disbelievers and afterward ye have your turn (of triumph), then give unto those whose wives have gone the like of that which they have spent, and keep your duty to Allah in Whom ye are believers.

If any of your wives have gone to the disbelievers, and their wives have gone to you, then just make sure that all of the wives are properlay paid for.

12O Prophet! If believing women come unto thee, taking oath of allegiance unto thee that they will ascribe no thing as partner unto Allah, and will neither steal nor commit adultery nor kill their children, nor produce any lie that they have devised between their hands and feet, nor disobey thee in what is right, then accept their allegiance and ask Allah to forgive them. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Oh Prophet [Muhammad], if any believing women come to you, promise to obey you, don't say Allah has any partners, don't steal, commit adultery, or kill their children, or lie about things they've devised between their hands and feet, [1]

then go ahead and accept them.

13O ye who believe! Be not friendly with a folk with whom Allah is wroth, (a folk) who have despaired of the Hereafter as the disbelievers despair of those who are in the graves.

Believers: Don't be friendly with those who Allah is angry with -- people who disbelieve in the hereafter.
