وَالنَّصَارَىٰ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّهُم مِّنكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْهُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ

O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you - then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people.

فَالْآنَ أَصْبَحْنَا فِي مِحْنَةٍ ، وَخَطَرٍ عَظِيمٍ ؛ لِأَنَّهُ يُخْشَىٰ عَلَىٰ أَبْنَائِنَا وَأَبْنَاءِ قَوْمِنَا أَن يَرْكَنُوا إِلَىٰ هَٰؤُلَاءِ وَيُوَادُّوهُمْ وَأَن يُحِبُّوهُمْ وَلِذَٰلِكَ يَجِبُ أَن تَخْلُصَ هَٰذِهِ الْبِلَادُ بِالذَّاتِ مِنْهُمْ فَهَٰذِهِ الْبِلَادُ قَالَ فِيهَا الرَّسُولُ ﷺ : «لَأُخْرِجَنَّ الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَىٰ مِن جَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِ حَتَّىٰ لَا أَدَعَ إِلَّا مُسْلِمًا» (٢) وَقَالَ : «أَخْرِجُوا الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَىٰ مِن جَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِ» (٣) وَقَالَ : «أَخْرِجُوا الْمُشْرِكِينَ مِن جَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِ» (٤) وَهَٰذَا كُلُّهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَن لَّا يَشْتَبِهَ الْأَمْرُ عَلَى النَّاسِ.

We are now in a trial and a great danger, because it is feared for our children and the children of our people that they might incline toward them, show them affection, and love them; therefore, these lands in particular must be purified of them, for the Messenger (peace be upon him) said regarding these lands: 'I will surely expel the Jews and the Christians from the Arabian Peninsula until I leave none but a Muslim' (2), and he said: 'Expel the Jews and the Christians from the Arabian Peninsula' (3), and he said: 'Expel the polytheists from the Arabian Peninsula' (4), and all of this is so that the matter does not become confused for the people.

قَوْلُهُ : «وَقَدْ صَارَ عَامَّةُ مُؤَاخَاةِ النَّاسِ عَلَىٰ أَمْرِ الدُّنْيَا وَذَٰلِكَ لَا يُجْدِي عَلَىٰ أَهْلِهِ شَيْئًا».

His saying: 'And the general brotherhood of people has become based on worldly matters, and that does not benefit its people in anything.'
