What does the Qur'an say about friendship with non-Muslims?

The Qur'an sets a clear standard for how a Muslim treats those of other faiths who live in peace with them: righteousness and justice, not hostility. Allah does not forbid kindness toward those who neither fight you nor drive you out — He loves those who are just.

“Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.”— 60:8 (Saheeh International)
