Verse144

(144) يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ لاَ تَتَّخِذُواْ الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاء مِن دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَتُرِيدُونَ أَن تَجْعَلُواْ لِلّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ سُلْطَانًا مُّبِينًا

144. " O' you who have Faith ! Do not take the disbelievers for friends instead of the believers. Do you desire that you should give to Allah a manifest proof against yourselves ? "
Commentary :
The believers have not the right of accepting the mastership of the disbelievers. But it is in the case that the hypocrites have a close tie with the disbelievers. The Qur'an introduces the disbelievers as Satans of the hypocrites:
" ... when they are alone with their evil ones, ... "
And they are as brethren of the hypocrites:
" ... those who have become hypocrites? They say to those of their brethren who disbelieve ... "
The senses mentioned in Sura Nisa', No.4, Verse 139 and 141 are also indications to the quality of the connection between the hypocrites and the disbelievers.

Explanations:
1. ' Tawalla ' and ' Tabarra ' are parts of the religion.
2. Any communication, friendship, and agreement contraction that results to the loss of Muslims, should be avoided of.
3. In current foreign policy, political and economical ties, choices, appointments and desposals or any action which ends to the domination of disbelievers over Muslims is unlawful (Haram) in Islam and it is rejected.
4. Any Muslim believer who accepts to saffer abjectness, has no proof to give Allah for his action.
" ... Do you desire that you should give to Allah a manifest proof against yourselves? "
5. Accepting the mastership of disbelievers does not adapt to faith. There is no room in a heart for two opposite affections
" O' you who have Faith! ... "
