Ali 'Imran 3:118 يا ايها الذين امنوا لا تتخذوا بطانة من دونكم لا يالونكم خبالا ودوا ما عنتم قد بدت البغضاء من افواههم وما تخفي صدورهم اكبر قد بينا لكم الايات ان كنتم تعقلون ١١٨

3:118
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا
ٱلَّذِينَ
ءَامَنُواْ
لَا
تَتَّخِذُواْ
بِطَانَةٗ
مِّن
دُونِكُمۡ
لَا
يَأۡلُونَكُمۡ
خَبَالٗا
وَدُّواْ
مَا
عَنِتُّمۡ
قَدۡ
بَدَتِ
ٱلۡبَغۡضَآءُ
مِنۡ
أَفۡوَٰهِهِمۡ
وَمَا
تُخۡفِي
صُدُورُهُمۡ
أَكۡبَرُۚ
قَدۡ
بَيَّنَّا
لَكُمُ
ٱلۡأٓيَٰتِۖ
إِن
كُنتُمۡ
تَعۡقِلُونَ

Believers! Do not take for intimate friends those who are not of your kind. They spare no effort to injure you.1 Indeed they love all that distresses you. Their hatred is clearly manifest in what they say, and what their breasts conceal is even greater. Now We have made Our messages clear to you, if only you can understand (the danger of their intimacy).

Chapter 3, Page 65, Juz 4

116. As for those who denied the Truth, neither their possessions nor their children will avail them against Allah. They are the people of the Fire, and therein they shall abide. 117. The example of what they spend in the life of this world is like that of a wind accompanied with frost which smites the harvest of a people who wronged themselves, and lays it to waste. It is not Allah who wronged them; rather it is they who wrong themselves. 118. Believers! Do not take for intimate friends those who are not of your kind. They spare no effort to injure you. Indeed they love all that distresses you. Their hatred is clearly manifest in what they say, and what their breasts conceal is even greater. Now We have made Our messages clear to you, if only you can understand (the danger of their intimacy). 119. Lo! It is you who love them but they do not love you even though you believe in the whole of the (heavenly) Book. When they meet you they say: 'We believe', but when they are by themselves they bite their fingers in rage at you. Say: 'Perish in your rage.' Allah knows even what lies hidden in their breasts. 120. If anything good happens to you they are grieved; if any misfortune befalls you they rejoice at it. But if you remain steadfast and mindful of Allah their designs will not cause you harm. Allah surely encompasses all that they do.
