ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ دِينَكُمْ هُزُوًا وَلَعِبًا مِّنَ ٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ مِن
قَبْلِكُمْ وَٱلْكُفَّارَ أَوْلِيَآءَ ۚ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ إِن كُنتُم

57. O Ye who believe! Choose not for guardians such of
those who received the Scripture before you, and of the disbelievers, who
made a jest and sport of your religion. And keep your duty to Allah if ye are
true believers.

Commentary
It was ordered in the primary
verses of previous Section, “Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends”.
This commandment has also been delivered in the beginning of this Section, but
with a little difference. The reason of this command has been explained here
more clearly, and other infidels have also been included in this category,
because the root of the behavior of the both (the people of the Scripture and
the Infidels) is the same.
It is commanded that you have
believed in Allah Almighty. Believing in Allah Almighty is, believing in the
advice that the entire human beings are servants of Allah Almighty, so all are
equal in this respect. Everyone should be provided necessary things according
to one’s necessity. Neither anyone should make slave to any other of his own
and nor anyone should be the slave of any other but Allah Almighty.
Therefore, you are advised that
you should not rely on the friendship of those people, who call themselves “the
Jews, the Christians” and those who received the Scripture before you, because
they make a jest of your religion and take your thoughts in the sense of
absurdity, and take not your way of life other than a sport.
This foul imagination has taken
place in their heart that they are most superior and best of all, and all of
others should live under their influence. Think with wisdom now! Can harmony,
deep relationship and true friendship be between you and them? Never, so you
should keep your footing in your belief and do not fear anyone but Allah
Almighty.
Like them, there are other
infidels also. It is their old rule to loot one another, to keep others under
influence and make them slaves. They also look their death in Islam like the
Jews and the Christians. They can never be your friends. We knew from it that
the people, who insult the religions of one another, cannot be friends of one
another.
In short, everyone has right of
freedom in religion and imaginations. A mutual agreement is necessary for
provision of the necessities of life to everybody of the world according to
one’s desires and a treaty of safety and peace. Then all people can live in the
world satisfactorily.
