protectors. They are friends and protectors of one another. Whoever of
you seeks their friendship and supports them shall become one of their
number.Allah does not guide the wrongdoers.
You see the faint-hearted hastening to woo them. They say: 'We fear
lest a change of fortune should befall us.' But when Allah grants you

triumph.
Believers, take as supporters neither those who were given the Book
