وَدُّوا لَوْ تَكْفُرُونَ كَمَا كَفَرُوا فَتَكُونُونَ سَوَٓاءً فَلَا تَتَّخِذُوا مِنْهُمْ اَوْلِيَٓاءَ حَتّٰى يُهَاجِرُوا ف۪ي سَب۪يلِ اللّٰهِۜ فَاِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَخُذُوهُمْ وَاقْتُلُوهُمْ حَيْثُ وَجَدْتُمُوهُمْۖ وَلَا تَتَّخِذُوا مِنْهُمْ وَلِيًّا وَلَا نَص۪يرًاۙ ٨٩

English Translation
89They want you to stray into disbelief just as they themselves have strayed into it, so that you sink to the same level as them. So do not take them as protectors/friends and confidants until they believe and emigrate in Allah's way. If they turn to hostility against you, seize them and kill them wherever you find them. Do not take from among them any guardian/friend or helper.
