I have updated the following articles with the below details:

www.answering-christianity.com/friends.htmYou may take a disbeliever as a companion
? (saahib). A
? can be your neighbor, workmate, classmate, friend (he is not a brother in faith)
?
??
??
??
?. See Noble Verse 4:36.
Even if your parents relentlessly call you to become an apostate or an infidel, do not follow them, but still be kind to them and be their companion

[018:037] His companion ?? said to him, during the talk with him: "Do you disbelieve ?? in Him Who created you out of dust (i.e. your father Adam), then out of Nutfah (mixed semen drops of male and female discharge), then fashioned you into a man?Also, Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, was addressed as the
? (saahib) of the both the believers and disbelievers in Noble Verses 34:46, 53:2, 81:22.
A Muslim man can also marry a Jewish or Christian woman. Also, some of the people of the Book (Jews and Christians) are from among the blessed ones. See Noble Verses 5:5, 3:199, 3:113-114. More proof that having a life friendship with disbelievers is permitted.
However, the disbelievers may not be your allies without or against the Believers. And if he's hostile towards Islam, then you must end your relationship with him (4:89, 2:193, 58:8-9, 29:46, 60:8 ).
Be forgiving to those who disagree with your faith who are not hostile. Show kindness to them. Pardon people. Restrain your anger. And be just. See Noble Verses 5:8, 60:8, 5:2, 4:58, 4:135, 7:159, 5:44, 2:62, 3:134, 7:199, 15:85, 5:13, 2:109, 24:22, 45:14, 76:7-10, 90:11-17, 2:177, 2:215, 17:26.
The above points were all based on the following Noble Verses:
4:36, 31:15, 18:37, 29:8, 31:15, 58:22, 34:46, 53:2, 81:22, 3:28, 3:118, 5:51, 5:57-59, 4:139, 9:23, 5:5, 3:199, 3:199, 3:113-114, 4:89, 2:193, 58:8-9, 29:46, 60:8, 5:8, 60:8, 5:2, 4:58, 4:135, 7:159, 5:44, 2:62, 3:134, 7:199, 15:85, 5:13, 2:109, 24:22, 45:14, 76:7-10, 90:11-17, 2:177, 2:215, 17:26.
Take care,
