4:145

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّخِذُوا۟ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَوْلِيَآءَ مِن دُونِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۚ أَتُرِيدُونَ أَن تَجْعَلُوا۟ لِلَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ سُلْطَٰنًا مُّبِينًا

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

O ye who believe! take not disbelievers for friends, in preference to believers. Do you mean to give Allah a manifest proof against yourselves?

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اے لوگو جو ایمان لائے ہو! مومنوں کو چھوڑ کر کافروں کو دوست نہ پکڑا کرو۔ کیا تم چاہتے ہو کہ اللہ کو اپنے خلاف کھلی کھلی حجت دے دو۔

French

Ô vous qui croyez ! Ne choisissez pas les mécréants comme amis de préférence aux croyants. Avez-vous l’intention de fournir à Allāh un argument clair contre vous-mêmes ?

O die ihr glaubt, nehmt euch keine Ungläubigen zu Freunden vor den Gläubigen*. Wollt ihr wohl Allah einen offenkundigen Beweis gegen euch selbst geben?

O ye who believe! [a]take not disbelievers for friends, in preference to believers. Do you mean to give Allah a manifest proof against yourselves?[608]

3:29, 119; 4:140.

Commentary:

He who makes friends with disbelievers when believers are engaged in a life-and-death struggle with them, helps the cause of disbelief against Islam and is thus sure to draw upon himself the wrath of God.

The expression, in preference to believers, is added to heighten the folly of the act.
