Assalam olaikum,
Allah (swt) says in the Quran: ‘Believers! Do not take the Jews and Christians for your allies. They are allies of one another. And amongst you who takes them for you allies, shall be regarded as one of them, Allah does not guide the wrong-doers.’ (TMQ-5:51)
The critics of Islam who mindlessly interpret the meaning of the Quranic verses have misconstrued this verse as being anti-Jewish.
However, Islam is a religion of peace.
Allah (swt) says in the Holy Quran: ‘As for such as do not fight against you on account of (your) faith and neither drive you forth from your homelands, Allah does not forbid you to show them kindness and to behave towards them with full equity, for verily Allah loves those who act equitably. Allah only forbids you to turn in friendship towards such as fight against you because of (your) faith and drive you forth from your homelands or aid (others) in driving you forth..’(TMQ-60:8-9)
These verses show clearly that Allah (swt) has asked the followers of Islam to show kindness towards all except for those who are their enemies or adversaries. This also shows that the command to keep a distance from the enemies is a well-justified one.
