O you who believe, do not take MY enemies and your enemies as allies, offering friendship to them while they have disbelieved in what has come to you of the truth, who expelled the Messenger and yourselves because you believe in GOD, your LORD. If you have gone out to strive in MY way and seeking MY approval, would you confide in them with friendship? But I am aware of what you have concealed and what you have declared. And whoever does it among you, then he has strayed from the straight way.

If (In) you have (Kuntum) gone out (Kharaj'tum) to strive (Jihaadan) in (Fii) MY way (Sabiilii) and seeking (Eb'tigaa'a) MY approval (Mar'doatii), would you confide in them (Tusirruuna ilai'him) with friendship (Bil' Mawaddati)?

O you who have believed, whenever the believing women come to you as emigrants, then examine them *; GOD is aware of their faith.

That is the judgement of GOD, HE judges between you; for GOD is Omniscient and Wise.
