Does the Qur'an forbid befriending non-Muslims?

Key findingsEditorial

One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.

  1. 01 2:257 Sets the word the question turns on before any prohibition is reached: God is the patron of those who believe, and those who disbelieve have other patrons. In because it shows the term used of God himself.
  2. 02 3:28 The central prohibition, and the one that carries its own exception in the same sentence - unless ye fear something from them. All four renderings keep both halves.
  3. 03 4:89 Refuses friendship to a specific group - those who want you to disbelieve and who will not leave their homes - and then commands worse. In because it shows the prohibition attached to conduct rather than to belief alone.
  4. 04 4:139 Asks what those who take unbelievers for friends are seeking, and answers that honour belongs to God. In because it gives a motive rather than a rule.
  5. 05 5:51 The verse most often quoted on the question: Palmer has "take not the Jews and Christians for your patrons", and Sale has "take not the Jews, or Christians for your friends". All four say that whoever takes them so is one of them, and Pickthall has "He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them".
  6. 06 5:57 Attaches the prohibition to mockery: it names those who make a jest and sport of the believers' religion, from those given the Scripture before and from the disbelievers. Pickthall has "Choose not for guardians", Palmer "take not for patrons", and Rodwell and Sale "for your friends".
  7. 07 60:8–9 The pair that draws the line: 60:8 does not forbid kindness and justice toward those who have not fought the believers over religion nor driven them from their homes, and 60:9 forbids friendship only with those who have. Pickthall has "Allah forbiddeth you only those who warred against you on account of religion", and Palmer has "make patrons" where the other three write friends or friendship.
  8. 08 3:118 Forbids intimacy with outsiders and gives its reason in the same verse: they wish the believers harm, and hatred has already shown from their mouths. Pickthall has "Take not for intimates others than your own folk", Rodwell "form not intimacies", and Sale "contract not an intimate friendship".
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation

Written by the editors. Not a translation, and not a source. It is an editorial restatement of the verses in this study and carries their name because someone has to answer for it.

The prohibition is real and it is conditioned. 3:28 tells the believers not to take those who disbelieve as friends or patrons in preference to believers - and in the same sentence says unless ye fear something from them. All four renderings keep both halves.

The other verses show what the word is doing. 2:257 uses it of God himself: God is the patron of those who believe. 4:139 asks what those who take unbelievers for friends are looking for, and answers that honour belongs to God - a motive, not a rule. And 4:89 attaches the refusal to a named group: people who want you to disbelieve and who will not leave their homes.

The verses carried with them take the prohibition further and also bound it. 5:51 names the Jews and the Christians, and all four say that whoever takes them so is one of them: Pickthall has "He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them". At 5:51 Palmer has "patrons" where Pickthall, Rodwell and Sale write friends. 5:57 names those who make a jest and sport of the believers' religion, from those given the Scripture before and from the disbelievers. 3:118 forbids intimacy with outsiders and gives its reason in the same verse: they wish the believers harm, and hatred has already shown from their mouths. And 60:8-9 draws the line in two verses: God does not forbid kindness and justice toward those who have not fought the believers over religion nor driven them from their homes, and Pickthall has "Allah forbiddeth you only those who warred against you on account of religion".

What the word covers - a friend, a patron, an ally, a protector - is exactly where the four translators part company, and it is what the whole question turns on. This study shows the divergence and stops. Settling it needs the interpretation layer, which is blocked on rights.

not a scholar — what this signature means

I am not a scholar, and nothing here asks you to treat me as one. The plain words on this site are my restatement of what the five translations shown above say, together with counts derived from the text itself — nothing more. I sign them so that a named person is accountable for every sentence, not so you'll take my word for anything. The authority on this page is the text and its translators. If my words don't match theirs, mine are the ones that are wrong.

Scope of this study

This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.

What this study does not answer, and which uncleared source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: no source has cleared the rights audit. It does not report how any commentator has read them: no has cleared it either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no cleared English edition exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading, because that layer is not built. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.

What this rests on

Opens with 2:257, widening across 8 passages in all.

Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

The versesSource fact 8 passages, each with every cleared translation

8 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.

Each verse opens on the translation that comes first in the site's fixed order, which runs from the newest translation to the oldest. The order is not a preference. Open Compare translations on any verse to read the others.

Allahu është Mbrojtësi i besimtarëve: i nxjerr ata nga errësirat në dritë. Ndërkaq, mbrojtësit e jobesimtarëve janë tagutët (kushdo që adhurohet pos Allahut): i nxjerrin ata nga drita në errësira. Këta janë banorët e Zjarrit, ku do të qëndrojnë përgjithmonë.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 There is no compulsion in religion. The right direction is henceforth distinct from error. And he who rejecteth false deities and believeth in Allah hath grasped a firm handhold which will never break. Allah is Hearer, Knower

Edward Henry Palmer1880 There is no compulsion in religion; the right way has been distinguished from the wrong, and whoso disbelieves in Taghut and believes in God, he has got hold of the firm handle in which is no breaking off; but God both hears and knows

John Medows Rodwell1861 Let there be no compulsion in Religion. Now is the right way made distinct from error. Whoever therefore shall deny Thagout and believe in God - he will have taken hold on a strong handle that shall not be broken: and God is He who Heareth, Knoweth

George Sale1734 Let there be no violence in religion. Now is right direction manifestly distinguished from deceit: Whoever therefore shall deny Tagut(false gods), and believe in God, he shall surely take hold on a strong handle, which shall not be broken; God is he who heareth and seeth

Talal Itani2012 Have you not considered him who argued with Abraham about his Lord, because God had given him sovereignty? Abraham said, "My Lord is He who gives life and causes death." He said, "I give life and cause death." Abraham said, "God brings the sun from the East, so bring it from the West," so the blasphemer was confounded. God does not guide the wrongdoing people.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Bethink thee of him who had an argument with Abraham about his Lord, because Allah had given him the kingdom; how, when Abraham said: My Lord is He Who giveth life and causeth death, he answered: I give life and cause death. Abraham said: Lo! Allah causeth the sun to rise in the East, so do thou cause it to come up from the West. Thus was the disbeliever abashed. And Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Do you not look at him who disputed with Abraham about his Lord, that God had given him the kingdom? When Abraham said, 'My Lord is He who giveth life and death,' he said, 'I give life and death.' Abraham said, 'But verily, God brings the sun from the east, do thou then bring it from the west?' And he who misbelieved was dumbfounded, for God does not guide unjust folk

John Medows Rodwell1861 Hast thou not thought on him who disputed with Abraham about his Lord, because God had given him the kingdom? When Abraham said, "My Lord is He who maketh alive and cause to die:" He said, "It is I who make alive and cause to die!" Abraham said, "Since God bringeth the sun from the East, do thou, then, bring it from the West." The infidel was confounded; for God guideth not the evil doers

George Sale1734 Hast thou not considered him who disputed with Abraham concerning his Lord, because God had given him the kingdom? When Abraham said, my Lord is he who giveth life, and killeth: He answered, I give life, and I kill. Abraham said, verily God bringeth the sun from the east, now do thou bring it from the west. Whereupon the infidel was confounded; for God directeth not the ungoldly people

Talal Itani2012 Or like him who passed by a town collapsed on its foundations. He said, "How can God revive this after its demise?" Thereupon God caused him to die for a hundred years, and then resurrected him. He said, "For how long have you tarried?" He said, "I have tarried for a day, or part of a day." He said, "No. You have tarried for a hundred years. Now look at your food and your drink-it has not spoiled-and look at your donkey. We will make you a wonder for mankind. And look at the bones, how We arrange them, and then clothe them with flesh." So when it became clear to him, he said, "I know that God has power over all things."

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Or (bethink thee of) the like of him who, passing by a township which had fallen into utter ruin, exclaimed: How shall Allah give this township life after its death? And Allah made him die a hundred years, then brought him back to life. He said: How long hast thou tarried? (The man) said: I have tarried a day or part of a day. (He) said: Nay, but thou hast tarried for a hundred years. Just look at thy food and drink which have not rotted! Look at thine ass! And, that We may make thee a token unto mankind, look at the bones, how We adjust them and then cover them with flesh! And when (the matter) became clear unto him, he said: I know now that Allah is Able to do all things

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Or like him who passed by a village, when it was desolate and turned over on its roofs, and said, 'How will God revive this after its death?' And God made him die for a hundred years, then He raised him, and said, 'How long hast thou tarried?' Said he, 'I have tarried a day, or some part of a day.' He said, 'Nay, thou hast tarried a hundred years; look at thy food and drink, they are not spoiled, and look at thine ass; for we will make thee a sign to men. And look at the bones how we scatter them and then clothe them with flesh.' And when it was made manifest to him, he said, 'I know that God is mighty over all

He said, "Nay, thou hast waited an hundred years. Look on thy food and thy drink; they are not corrupted; and look on thine ass: we would make thee a sign unto men: And look on the bones of thine ass, how we will raise them, then clothe them with flesh." And when this was shewn to him, he said, "I acknowledge that God hath power to do all things

God said, nay, thou hast tarried here an hundred years. Now look on thy food and thy drink, they are not yet corrupted; and look on thine ass: And this have we done that we might make thee a sign unto men.

Believers are not to take disbelievers for friends instead of believers. Whoever does that has nothing to do with God, unless it is to protect your own selves against them. God warns you to beware of Him. To God is the destiny.

Allah biddeth you beware of Him. And Allah is Full of Pity for (His) bondmen

The translators word this verse differently

Talal Itani published 2012

They would love to see you disbelieve, just as they disbelieve, so you would become equal. So do not befriend any of them, unless they emigrate in the way of God. If they turn away, seize them and execute them wherever you may find them; and do not take from among them allies or supporters.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall published 1930

They long that ye should disbelieve even as they disbelieve, that ye may be upon a level (with them). So choose not friends from them till they forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) then take them and kill them wherever ye find them, and choose no friend nor helper from among them

Edward Henry Palmer published 1880

They would fain that ye misbelieve as they misbelieve, that ye might be alike; take ye not patrons from among them until they too flee in God's way; but if they turn their backs, then seize them and kill them wheresoever ye find them, and take from them neither patron nor help

John Medows Rodwell published 1861

They desire that ye should be infidels as they are infidels, and that ye should be alike. Take therefore none of them for friends, till they have fled their homes for the cause of God. If they turn back, then seize them, and slay them wherever ye find them; but take none of them as friends or helpers

George Sale published 1734

They desire that ye should become infidels, as they are infidels, and that ye should be equally wicked with themselves. Therefore take not friends from among them, until they fly their country for the religion of God; and if they turn back from the faith, take them, and kill them where-ever ye find them; and take no friend from among them, nor any helper

Hafs/Kufan verse numbering, 6236 ayahs. The bismillah is delivered as a separate `bismillah` attribute on ayah 1 and is NOT fused into the ayah text. 112 surahs carry one: every surah except al-Fatiha, where the bismillah is ayah 1:1 itself, and at-Tawba, which has none. Sourced from the XML output; the plain-text output of the same release DOES fuse it, which is defect D1.

Talal Itani2012 You will find others who want security from you, and security from their own people. But whenever they are tempted into civil discord, they plunge into it. So if they do not withdraw from you, nor offer you peace, nor restrain their hands, seize them and execute them wherever you find them. Against these, We have given you clear authorization.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Ye will find others who desire that they should have security from you, and security from their own folk. So often as they are returned to hostility they are plunged therein. If they keep not aloof from you nor offer you peace nor hold their hands, then take them and kill them wherever ye find them. Against such We have given you clear warrant

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Ye will find others who seek for quarter from you, and quarter from their own people; whenever they return to sedition they shall be overturned therein: but if they retire not from you, nor offer you peace, nor restrain their hands, then seize them and kill them wheresoever ye find them;- over these we have made for you manifest power

John Medows Rodwell1861 Ye will find others who seek to gain your confidence as well as that of their own people: So oft as they return to sedition, they shall be overthrown in it: But if they leave you not, nor propose terms or peace to you nor withhold their hands, then seize them, and slay them, wherever ye find them. Over these have we given you undoubted power

George Sale1734 Ye shall find others who are desirous to enter into a confidence with you, and at the same time to preserve a confidence with their own people: So often as they return to sedition, they shall be subverted therein; and if they depart not from you, and offer you peace, and restrain their hands from warring against you, take them and kill them wheresoever ye find them; over these have we granted you a manifest power

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 He hath already revealed unto you in the Scripture that, when ye hear the revelations of Allah rejected and derided, (ye) sit not with them (who disbelieve and mock) until they engage in some other conversation. Lo! in that case (if ye stayed) ye would be like unto them. Lo! Allah will gather hypocrites and disbelievers, all together, into hell

Edward Henry Palmer1880 He hath revealed this to you in the Book, that when ye hear the signs of God disbelieved in and mocked at, then sit ye not down with them until they plunge into another discourse, for verily, then ye would be like them. Verily, God will gather the hypocrites and misbelievers into hell together

John Medows Rodwell1861 And already hath He sent this down to you in the Book "WHEN YE SHALL HEAR THE SIGNS OF GOD THEY SHALL NOT BE BELIEVED BUT SHALL BE MOCKED AT." Sit ye not therefore with such, until they engage in other discourse; otherwise, ye will become like them. Verily God will gather the hypocrites and the infidels all together in Hell

George Sale1734 And he hath already revealed unto you, in the book of the Koran, the following passage, when ye shall hear the signs of God, they shall not be believed, but they shall be laughed to scorn. Therefore sit not with them who believe not, until they engage in different discourse; for if ye do ye will certainly become like unto them. God will surely gather the ungodly and the unbelievers together in hell

But if the disbelievers get a turn, they say, "Did we not side with you, and defend you from the believers?" God will judge between you on the Day of Resurrection; and God will give the disbelievers no means of overcoming the believers.

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Those who lie in wait for you, and if the victory be yours from God, say, 'Were we not with you?' and if the misbelievers have a chance, they say, 'Did we not get the mastery over you, and defend you from the believers?' But God shall judge between you on the resurrection day; for God will not give the misbelievers a way against believers

John Medows Rodwell1861 They watch you narrowly. Then if God grant you a victory, they say, "Are we not with you?" and if the infidels meet with a success, they say to them, "Were we not superior to you: and did we not defend you from those believers?" God shall judge betwixt ye on the day of the resurrection, and God will by no means make a way for the infidels over the believers

George Sale1734 They who wait to observe what befalleth you, if victory be granted you from God, say, were we not with you? But if any advantage happen to the infidels, they say unto them, were we not superior to you, and have we not defended you against the believers?

But if they turn away, know that God intends to strike them with some of their sins. In fact, a great many people are corrupt.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 So judge between them by that which Allah hath revealed, and follow not their desires, but beware of them lest they seduce thee from some part of that which Allah hath revealed unto thee. And if they turn away, then know that Allah's Will is to smite them for some sin of theirs. Lo! many of mankind are evil-livers

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Wherefore judge thou between them by what God has revealed, and follow not their lusts; but beware lest they mislead thee from part of what God has revealed to thee; yet if they turn back, then know that God wishes to fall on them for some sins of theirs, - verily, many men are evildoers

John Medows Rodwell1861 Wherefore do thou judge between them, by what God hath sent down, and follow not their wishes! but be on thy guard against them lest they beguile thee from any of those precepts which God hath sent down to thee; and if they turn back, then know thou that for some of their crimes doth God choose to punish them: for truly most men are perverse

George Sale1734 Wherefore do thou, O prophet, judge between them according to that which God hath revealed and follow not their desires; but beware of them, lest they cause thee to err from part of those precepts which God hath sent down unto thee; and if they turn back, know that God is pleased to punish them for some of their crimes; for a great number of men are transgressors

Talal Itani2012 You will see those in whose hearts is sickness racing towards them. They say, "We fear the wheel of fate may turn against us." But perhaps God will bring about victory, or some event of His making; thereupon they will regret what they concealed within themselves.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 And thou seest those in whose heart is a disease race toward them, saying: We fear lest a change of fortune befall us. And it may happen that Allah will vouchsafe (unto thee) the victory, or a commandment from His presence. Then will they repent them of their secret thoughts

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Thou wilt see those in whose hearts is a sickness vieing with them; they say, 'We fear lest there befall us a reverse.' It may be God will give the victory, or an order from Himself, and they may awake repenting of what they thought in secret to themselves

John Medows Rodwell1861 So shalt thou see the diseased at heart speed away to them, and say, "We fear lest a change of fortune befall us." But haply God will of himself bring about some victory or event of His own ordering: then soon will they repent them of their secret imaginings

George Sale1734 Thou shalt see those in whose hearts there is an infirmity, to hasten unto them, saying, we fear lest some adversity befall us; but it is easy for God to give victory, or a command from Him, that they may repent of that which they concealed in their minds

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Those who believe say, 'Are these they who swore by God with their most strenuous oath that they were surely with you?' - their works are in vain and they shall wake the losers

John Medows Rodwell1861 Then will the faithful say, "What! are these they who swore, by their most solemn oath, that they were surely with you?" Vain their works; and themselves shall come to ruin

60:9 আল্লাহ কেবল তাদের সাথেই বন্ধুত্ব করতে নিষেধ করেছেন, যারা দ্বীনের ব্যাপারে তোমাদের বিরুদ্ধে যুদ্ধ করেছে এবং তোমাদেরকে তোমাদের ঘর-বাড়ি থেকে বের করে দিয়েছে ও তোমাদেরকে বের করে দেয়ার ব্যাপারে একে অন্যকে সহযোগিতা করেছে। এরপরও (তোমাদের মধ্যে) যারা তাদের সাথে বন্ধুত্ব করে, তারাই তো যালিম।

60:8 Allah; sizinle din hususunda savaşmayan, sizi yurdunuzdan çıkarmayan kimselere iyilik etmenizi, onlara adaletli davranmanızı yasaklamaz. Şüphesiz Allah, adil olanları sever.

60:9 Allah; ancak sizinle din hususunda savaşan, sizi yurtlarınızdan çıkaran ve çıkarılmanıza yardım edenlerle dost olmanızı yasaklar. Kim onları dost edinirse, işte onlar zalimlerin ta kendileridir.

60:8 جن لوگوں نے تم سے دین کے بارے میں لڑائی نہیں لڑی[1] اور تمہیں جلاوطن نہیں کیا[2] ان کے ساتھ سلوک واحسان کرنے اور منصفانہ بھلے برتاؤ کرنے سے اللہ تعالیٰ تمہیں نہیں روکتا[3]، بلکہ اللہ تعالیٰ تو انصاف کرنے والوں سے محبت کرتا ہے.[4]

60:9 اللہ تعالیٰ تمہیں صرف ان لوگوں کی محبت سے روکتا ہے جنہوں نے تم سے دین کے بارے میں لڑائیاں لڑیں اور تمہیں شہر سے نکال دیئے اور شہر سے نکالنے والوں کی مدد کی جو لوگ ایسے کفار سے محبت کریں[1] وه (قطعاً) ﻇالم ہیں.[2]

Talal Itani2012 There is an excellent example in them for you-for anyone who seeks God and the Last Day. But whoever turns away-God is the Self-Sufficient, the Most Praised.

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Ye had in them a good example for him who would hope in God and the last day. But whoso turns his back, verily, God, He is rich and to be praised

Talal Itani2012 Perhaps God will plant affection between you and those of them you consider enemies. God is Capable. God is Forgiving and Merciful.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 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

Talal Itani2012 O you who believe! When believing women come to you emigrating, test them. God is Aware of their faith. And if you find them to be faithful, do not send them back to the unbelievers. They are not lawful for them, nor are they lawful for them. But give them what they have spent. You are not at fault if you marry them, provided you give them their compensation. And do not hold on to ties with unbelieving women, but demand what you have spent, and let them demand what they have spent. This is the rule of God; He rules among you. God is Knowing and Wise.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 O 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

Edward Henry Palmer1880 O ye who believe! when there come believing women who have fled, then try them: God knows their faith. If ye know them to be believers do not send them back to the misbelievers;- they are not lawful for them, nor are the men lawful for these; - but give them what they have expended, and it shall be no crime against you that ye marry them, when ye have given them their hire. And do not ye retain a right over misbelieving women; but ask for what ye have spent, and let them ask for what they have spent. That is God's judgment: He judges between you, for God is knowing, wise

John Medows Rodwell1861 O Believers! when believing women come over to you as refugees (Mohadjers), then make TRIAL of them. God best knoweth their faith; but if ye have also ascertained their faith, let them not go back to the infidels; they are not lawful for them, nor are the unbelievers lawful for these women. But give them back what they have spent for their dowers. No crime shall it be in you to marry them, provided ye give them their dowers. Do not retain any right in the infidel women, but demand back what you have spent for their dowers, and let the unbelievers demand back what they have spent for their wives. This is the ordinance of God which He ordaineth among you: and God is Knowing, Wise

George Sale1734 O true believers, when believing women come unto you as refugees, try them: God well knoweth their faith. And if ye know them to be true believers, send them not back to the infidels: They are not lawful for the unbelievers to have in marriage; neither are the unbelievers lawful for them. But give their unbelieving husbands what they shall have expended for their dowers. Nor shall it be any crime in you if ye marry them, provided ye give them their dowries. And retain not the patronage of the unbelieving women: But demand back that which ye have expended for the dowry of such of your wives as go over to the unbelievers; and let them demand back that which they have expended for the dowry of those who come over to you. This is the judgment of God, which He establisheth among you: And God is knowing and wise

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 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

Edward Henry Palmer1880 And if any of your wives escape from you to the misbelievers, and your turn comes, then give to those whose wives have gone away the like of what they have spent; and fear God, in whom it is that ye believe

Talal Itani published 2012

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall published 1930

O ye who believe! Take not for intimates others than your own folk, who would spare no pains to ruin you; they love to hamper you. Hatred is revealed by (the utterance of) their mouths, but that which their breasts hide is greater. We have made plain for you the revelations if ye will understand

Edward Henry Palmer published 1880

O ye who believe! take not to intimacy with others than yourselves; they will not fail to spoil you; they would fain ye came to trouble,- hatred is shown by their mouths; but what their breasts conceal is greater still. We have made manifest to you our signs, did ye but understand

John Medows Rodwell published 1861

O ye who have believed! form not intimacies among others than yourselves. They will not fail to corrupt you. They long for your ruin. Hatred hath already shewn itself out of their mouths, but more grievous is what their breasts conceal. The tokens thereof we have already made plain to you, if ye will comprehend

George Sale published 1734

O true believers, contract not an intimate friendship with any besides your selves: They will not fail to corrupt you. They wish for that which may cause you to perish: Their hatred hath already appeared from out of their mouths; but what their breasts conceal is yet more inveterate. We have already shewn you signs of their ill will towards you, if ye understand

O besimtarë! Mos merrni për miq të besueshëm askënd jashtë gjirit tuaj, sepse ata nuk kursejnë asgjë për t'ju bërë dëm! Ata jua dëshirojnë vuajtjen. Tashmë është shfaqur urrejtja në gjuhët e tyre, por ajo që fshehin në zemra është edhe më e madhe. Ne jua kemi sqaruar dëshmitë, nëse jeni që kuptoni.

Ey iman edenler! Sizden olmayanı sırdaş edinmeyin. Zira onlar size ellerinden gelen her türlü kötülüğü yaparlar, size sıkıntı verecek şeyleri arzu ederler. Öfkeleri ağızlarından taşmaktadır. İçlerinde gizledikleri (nefret) ise daha da büyüktür. Eğer düşünüp anlıyorsanız size âyetleri açıkladık.

اے ایمان والو! تم اپنا دلی دوست ایمان والوں کے سوا اور کسی کو نہ بناؤ[1] ۔ (تم تو) نہیں دیکھتے دوسرے لوگ تمہاری تباہی میں کوئی کسر اٹھا نہیں رکھتے، وه تو چاہتے ہیں کہ تم دکھ میں پڑو[2] ان کی عداوت تو خود ان کی زبان سے بھی ﻇاہر ہو چکی ہے اور جو ان کے سینوں میں پوشیده ہے وه بہت زیاده ہے، ہم نے تمہارے لئے آیتیں بیان کر دیں اگر عقلمند ہو (تو غور کرو).

Talal Itani2012 As for those who disbelieve, neither their possessions nor their children will avail them anything against God. These are the inhabitants of the Fire, abiding therein forever.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Lo! the riches and the progeny of those who disbelieve will not avail them aught against Allah; and such are rightful owners of the Fire. They will abide therein

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Verily, those who misbelieve, their wealth is of no service to them, nor their children either, against God; they are the fellows of the Fire, and they shall dwell therein for aye

John Medows Rodwell1861 But as for the infidels, their wealth, and their children shall avail them nothing against God. They shall be the inmates of the fire, to abide therein eternally

George Sale1734 As for the unbelievers, their wealth shall not profit them at all, neither their children, against God: They shall be the companions of hell fire; they shall continue therein for ever

Talal Itani2012 The parable of what they spend in this worldly life is that of a frosty wind that strikes the harvest of a people who have wronged their souls, and destroys it. God did not wrong them, but they wronged their own selves.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 The likeness of that which they spend in this life of the world is as the likeness of a biting, icy wind which smiteth the harvest of a people who have wronged themselves, and devastateth it. Allah wronged them not, but they do wrong themselves

Edward Henry Palmer1880 The likeness of what they expend in this life of the world, is as the likeness of wind wherein is a cold blast that falls upon a people's tilth who have wronged themselves and destroys it. It is not God who wrongs them, but it is themselves they wrong

John Medows Rodwell1861 The alms which they bestow in this present life, are like a freezing wind, which falleth upon and destroyeth the cornfields of a people who have been to themselves unjust. God doeth them no injustice, but to themselves are they unjust

George Sale1734 The likeness of that which they lay out in this present life, is as a wind wherein there is a scorching cold: It falleth on the standing corn of those men who have injured their own souls, and destroyeth it. And God dealeth not unjustly with them; but they injure their own souls

Talal Itani2012 There you are, you love them, but they do not love you, and you believe in the entire scripture. And when they meet you, they say, "We believe;" but when they are alone, they bite their fingers in rage at you. Say, "Die in your rage; God knows what is within the hearts."

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 Lo! ye are those who love them though they love you not, and ye believe in all the Scripture. When they fall in with you they say: We believe; but when they go apart they bite their finger-tips at you, for rage. Say: Perish in your rage! Lo! Allah is Aware of what is hidden in (your) breasts

Edward Henry Palmer1880 Ye it is who love them, but they love not you; and ye believe in the Book, all of it. But when they meet you they say, 'We believe;' and when they go aside they bite their finger tips at you through rage. Say, 'Die in your rage, for God doth know the nature of men's breasts

John Medows Rodwell1861 See now! ye love them, but they love not you. Ye believe the entire Book. And when they meet you, they say, "We believe;" but when they are apart, they bite their fingers' ends at you, out of wrath. SAY: "Die in your wrath!" God truly knoweth the very recesses of your breasts

George Sale1734 Behold, ye love them, and they do not love you: Ye believe in all the scriptures, and when they meet you, they say, we believe; but when they assemble privately togeher, they bite their fingers ends out of wrath against you. Say unto them, die in your wrath: Verily God knoweth the innermost part of your breasts

The translators word this verse differently

Talal Itani2012 If something good happens to you, it upsets them; but if something bad befalls you, they rejoice at it. But if you persevere and maintain righteousness, their schemes will not harm you at all. God comprehends what they do.

Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall1930 If a lucky chance befall you, it is evil unto them, and if disaster strike you they rejoice thereat. But if ye persevere and keep from evil their guile will never harm you. Lo! Allah is Surrounding what they do

Edward Henry Palmer1880 If good luck touch you it is bad for them, but if bad luck befall you they rejoice therein; yet if ye are patient and fear, their tricks shall not harm you, for what they do God comprehends

John Medows Rodwell1861 If good befalleth you it grieveth them, and when ill lighteth on you, they rejoice in it. But if ye be steadfast and fear God, their craft shall in no way harm you. For God is round about their doings

George Sale1734 If good happen unto you, it grieveth them; and if evil befall you, they rejoice at it. But if ye be patient, and fear God, their subtlety shall not hurt you at all; for God comprehendeth whatever they do

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it4 of the 5 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page

The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.

Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 2:257, 3:28, 4:89, 4:139, in full, and nothing else. No , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography was consulted, because none has cleared the rights audit. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.

Extended by four entries. The question is most often put with 5:51, which names the Jews and the Christians, and the set did not carry it. It is now carried, with 5:57 and 3:118, which also forbid taking certain people as friends, patrons or intimates, and 60:8-9, which says in two verses whom the prohibition covers and whom it does not. They were read across the same four translations as the rest of the set, in full; Itani was not consulted for them either. Probes over those four, whole word: 'friends' returns 44 verses and reaches 5:51 in Pickthall, Rodwell and Sale, 5:57 in Rodwell and Sale, and 60:9 in Pickthall and Rodwell; 'patrons' returns 36 and reaches 5:51, 5:57 and 60:9 in Palmer alone; 'guardians' returns 12 and reaches 5:57 in Pickthall alone; 'intimates', 'intimacy', 'intimacies' or 'intimate' returns 4 and reaches 3:118 in all four; 'forbid' and its forms return 48 and reach 60:8 and 60:9 in all four.

How this set was arrived at. Candidates came from a conjunctive word search over all four renderings, returned in mushaf order with no relevance ordering, and verses matched in all four were carried forward. Two verses that matched the search on wording alone were proposed for removal and confirmed out. One matched on friendship. It is about a day on which there will be no trafficking, friendship or intercession, and concerns the hereafter, not who may be befriended now. The other matched on friend. It says God took Abraham for a friend, which is the word used of God and a prophet, not a rule about the believers' company. Why each verse is in the study is stated per verse in the selection, and is signed with this prose.

Where the renderings part company, named rather than resolved. The study names the differences it turns on and does not choose between them.
