14 Preface ۞ أَلَم تَرَ إِلَى الَّذينَ تَوَلَّوا قَومًا غَضِبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيهِم ما هُم مِنكُم وَلا مِنهُم وَيَحلِفونَ عَلَى الكَذِبِ وَهُم يَعلَمونَAli Quli QaraiHave you not regarded those who befriend a people1 at whom Allah is wrathful? They neither belong to you, nor to them, and they swear false oaths [that they are with you] and they know. That is, the Jews, with whom the hypocrites amongst muslims were on intimate terms.
