يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّخِذُوا۟ ٱلْيَهُودَ وَٱلنَّصَٰرَىٰٓ
أَوْلِيَآءَ ۘ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّهُم مِّنكُمْ
فَإِنَّهُۥ مِنْهُمْ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ

51. O ye who believe!
Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to
another. And he among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo!
Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.

Commentary
‘Awli-yaaa-‘u – (friends), it is
plural of walii. Walii means “the best friend, the partial, the helper, the
well-wisher and the confident”.
We
recited in the previous verse that the Muslim nation is for introducing the
commands of Holy Qur’aan in the
world. There is no work of this nation other than it. When the nation of
Muslims began to come into existence and prevail the Qur’aanic Law gradually, then the people of all around, who were
interested in their own worldly gains and did not like to see anyone powerful
than themselves, observed their clear death in the progress of the Muslims. So
they decided, “It is our duty to oppose Islam until we are living, happen what
may”. They were caused to know very much that Islam desires to teach the entire
world a best method of dwelling. So they should not go against it. But bandage
of selfishness was dressed on their eyes. They were unable to observe anything
other than their own loss in Islam.
They
listened to nothing. Their only purpose was, “The good should be ours only,
whether any other dies or lives”. It was open announcement of Islam, “The good
should be for all. Nobody can suppress any other. The entire human beings
should live with kindness and goodness”. Accordingly, two big groups of
humankind were born in the world forever; the Believers i.e. the well-wishers
for all equally and the Disbelievers i.e. well-wishers for themselves only. It
is the biggest difference between a Believer and a Disbeliever. The Jews and
the Christians decided to co-operate with the Disbelievers (Infidels), whereas
it was not expected from them, because they had the Torah and the Bible. And
the Holy Qur’aan was protector of
original verses of all former Scriptures. It could be hoped that they would be
partial of the Muslims immediately. But it was happened that an evil spirit of
selfishness rode upon them too. Moreover, these people became more selfish than
the entire disbelievers. The history of the world is evident that instead of
being partial of Islam by understanding it, on the contrary, they tried to
mislead the Muslims also to astray, because the selfishness pulls the human
being towards itself easily.
