How to seek the pleasure of Allah You must dislike what Allah dislikes

As Muslims we must dislike disbelievers, polytheists and wrong-doers As Muslims we must dislike disbelievers, polytheists and wrong-doers. Why because Allah dislikes them and they dislike us Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, but what their hearts conceal is far worse." [Surah Ale-Imran (3), Ayah 118.] "And they will never cease fighting you until they turn you back from your religion if they can." [Surah Al-Baqarah (2), Ayah 217.] "They intend to put out the Light of Allah (the religion of Islam) with their mouths." [Surah As-Saff (61), Ayah 8.] "Never will the Jews and the Christians be pleased with you unless you follow their religion." [Surah Al- Baqarah (2), Ayah 120.] Let not the believers take the disbelievers as awliyyaa' (friends, supporters, helpers) instead of the believers." [Surah Ale-Imran (3), Ayah 28.] "You will not find any people who believe in Allah and the Last Day, making friendship with those who oppose Allah and His Messenger, even though they were their fathers, their sons, their brothers or their kindred [people]." [Surah Al-Mujaadilah (58), Ayah 22.]

Islam sets out the position of the party of Allah as opposed to the party of Satan. It determines the position a Muslim should take against the disbelievers, namely hatred, animosity and roughness, and nothing else other than that. There should be no inclination towards the disbelievers, nor should there be any compromises with them, "And incline not towards those who do wrong, lest the Fire should touch you." [Surah Hud (11), Ayah 113.] "They wish that you should compromise [in religion out of courtesy] with them, so they [too] would compromise with you." [Surah Al-Qalam (68), Ayah 9.] Islam considers both inclination towards the disbelievers and making compromises with them forbidden acts. Al-Walaa' or loyalty takes two forms: expressed and hidden. Hidden loyalty to the disbelievers (that is with the heart) is deemed major disbelief which definitely takes one out of the fold of Islam, whether or not one expresses it openly. As for the open and expressed loyalty to the disbelievers, this could either be an act of kufr or a major or minor act of disobedience in accordance with the judgement of Shari'ah in each individual case.

That we never choose relationships with them over Muslims Please note that this does not mean that we go around opressing or violating the rights of unbelievers It simply means that we deal with them from a distance – meaning only as needed That we never choose relationships with them over Muslims Our loyalty is to the muslims not them
