Sura 9
Aya 23
23
يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ آمَنوا لا تَتَّخِذوا آباءَكُم وَإِخوانَكُم أَولِياءَ إِنِ استَحَبُّوا الكُفرَ عَلَى الإيمانِ ۚ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّهُم مِنكُم فَأُولٰئِكَ هُمُ الظّالِمونَ

(Muntakhab)

O you who have conformed to Islam: Do not favour the tutelage of your fathers nor of your sons if they prefer infidelity to Allah's system of faith and worship, and he who takes them as tutelary friends, protectors or guardians shall he and such persons be wrongful of actions.
