Al-Baqarah 120

وَلَنْ تَرْضٰى عَنْكَ الْيَهُودُ وَلَا النَّصَارٰى حَتّٰى تَتَّبِعَ مِلَّتَهُمْۜ قُلْ اِنَّ هُدَى اللّٰهِ هُوَ الْهُدٰىۜ وَلَئِنِ اتَّبَعْتَ اَهْوَٓاءَهُمْ بَعْدَ الَّذ۪ي جَٓاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِۙ مَا لَكَ مِنَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ وَلِيٍّ وَلَا نَص۪يرٍ ۝١٢٠

120Neither the Jews nor the Christians will ever be pleased with you unless you follow their belief system. Say, "The path Allah shows—this is the true right path." If, after the knowledge that has come to you, you were to follow their whims and desires, you would have, apart from Allah, neither a protector nor a helper to guard you.
