يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّخِذُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُوا۟
دِينَكُمْ هُزُوًا وَلَعِبًا مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ
وَٱلْكُفَّارَ أَوْلِيَآءَ ۚ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

57. O Ye who believe!
Choose not for guardians such of those who received the Scripture before you,
and of the disbelievers, who made a jest and sport of your religion. And keep
your duty to Allah if ye are true believers.

Commentary
It
was ordered in the primary verses of previous Section, “Take not the Jews and
the Christians for friends”. This commandment has also been delivered in the
beginning of this Section, but with a little difference. The reason of this
command has been explained here more clearly, and other infidels have also been
included in this category, because the root of the behavior of the both (the
people of the Scripture and the Infidels) is the same.
It
is commanded that you have believed in Allah Almighty. Believing in Allah
Almighty is, believing in the advice that the entire human beings are servants
of Allah Almighty, so all are equal in this respect. Everyone should be
provided necessary things according to one’s necessity. Neither anyone should
make slave to any other of his own and nor anyone should be the slave of any
other but Allah Almighty.
Therefore,
you are advised that you should not rely on the friendship of those people, who
call themselves “the Jews, the Christians” and those who received the Scripture
before you, because they make a jest of your religion and take your thoughts in
the sense of absurdity, and take not your way of life other than a sport.
This
foul imagination has taken place in their heart that they are most superior and
best of all, and all of others should live under their influence. Think with
wisdom now! Can harmony, deep relationship and true friendship be between you
and them? Never, so you should keep your footing in your belief and do not fear
anyone but Allah Almighty.
Like
them, there are other infidels also. It is their old rule to loot one another,
to keep others under influence and make them slaves. They also look their death
in Islam like the Jews and the Christians. They can never be your friends. We
knew from it that the people, who insult the religions of one another, cannot
be friends of one another.
In
short, everyone has right of freedom in religion and imaginations. A mutual
agreement is necessary for provision of the necessities of life to everybody of
the world according to one’s desires and a treaty of safety and peace. Then all
people can live in the world satisfactorily.
