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

O you who believe, do not take anyone as an insider but those from among your own selves. They would spare no effort to do you mischief. They want you to be in trouble. Malice has come out of their mouths while what is concealed in their hearts is still worse. We have made the signs clear to you, if only you understand.

Read in Context

Chapter 3, Page 65, Juz 4

116. Surely, those who disbelieve, neither their wealth nor their children shall help them against Allah; and they are the people of the Fire. They shall be there forever. 117. The example of what they spend in this worldly life is just like a wind that, having chill within, struck the tillage of those who wronged themselves, and destroyed it. Allah has not wronged them; rather, they did wrong to themselves. 118. O you who believe, do not take anyone as an insider but those from among your own selves. They would spare no effort to do you mischief. They want you to be in trouble. Malice has come out of their mouths while what is concealed in their hearts is still worse. We have made the signs clear to you, if only you understand. 119. Look, you are the ones who love them and they do not love you. You believe in all the books; (On the other hand,) when they meet you, they say, “We believe”, and when they are alone, they bite their finger-tips out of rage against you. Say, “May you perish in your rage.” Surely, Allah is All-Aware of what lies in the hearts. 120. If something good happens to you, it annoys them, and if something evil befalls you, they are delighted with it. If you keep patience and fear Allah, their cunning shall not harm you at all. Allah is All-Encompassing of what they do.
