      @@seyl717 Dad actually said before that he doesn't understand why his family is so broken, bcoz the whole family haven't been speaking for years, eventhough we've been living by the Christian teaching (which broke up the family I grew up in a long time ago). Bringing up their family with the Christian teaching tore their family apart a long time ago but my parents are in denial. Whenever one child wrongs the other instead of apologizing/making amends, the one who was wronged(victim) is told to "just forget it and move on, no one owes anyone an apology because Jesus had already died for our sins".
      I prayed for guidance and accepted the guidance that came to me but my parents rejected that guidance.
      Inshallah my parents and siblings will come to accept guidance. Bcoz that's the only way the family will ever reconcile, if they follow the Islam teaching (that came to correct Jesus's teaching that got twisted by the Church) - uphold right, forbid wrong. Not by the twisted doctrine taught by the church. Tolerating evil for a long time (turn the other cheek, and forgive over and over) instead of putting a stop to evil, allowed evil to flourish and ruined the family I grew up in.
      Of course they now openly blame Islam for my "change".No matter how much I explain about Islam they refuse to listen and continue to denigrate Islam. So now I have to take "time out" in the hope that they will be ready to listen when the time comes. Silence speaks volumes. Sometimes when talking doesn't help and only makes things worse, it's better to remain silent like Mary in Quran.

    Abu Dawood narrates that the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) said,"A man will follow the way of his close friends,so let each one of you look at who he takes as a close friend."
    In another narration, Prophet (SAW) says ,"A man follows the Religion of his close friend,so let one of you look at whom he takes as his close friend."
    Your best friend is the one who:
    1)Seeing him reminds you of Allah
    2)Speaking to him increases you in knowledge
    3)His actions remind you of the hereafter.[Prophet Muhammad (SAW)]
    Yes,it is indeed recommended to have good relationship with non-Muslims as it is the only way through which they are exposed to Islam,but having them as one's close friend is not at all which our beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) recommended,bcz we don't know how shaitan will trap us falling into sins that are being normalised nowadays ,until one doesn't fear Allah and thinks of death and work for the hereafter,and all these ideologies are not recognised and favoured by our non-Muslims friends.

      A KNOWLEDGEABLE practicing Christian would never encourage a fellow human being to follow what he/she perceives to be in error. He/she would emulate Jesus's attitude towards unbelievers, showing compassion, kindness, forgiveness, truthfulness, and uncompromising love. He/she would love Muslims- and others- to the point of death if need be, in the hope that they will be drawn to Christ. True friendship enhances one another's character rather than diminishes it. Furthermore, a good conscientious Christian is to not be a stumbling block to a Muslim and will abstain from alcohol and pork in his/her presence. The Christian, seeking to be a good influence, is also commanded to avoid all uncleanliness (drunkenness, pornography, lying, etc.), and to live a life like Jesus. For an excellent example of friendship look no further than Prince Jonathan and King David of the Bible. I'd also expect a Muslim to emulate Muhammad and treat unbelievers the way he did.

    And if any among you befriends them, then surely he is one of them.
    Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that;
    Umar ordered Abu Musa Al-Ashari to send him on one sheet of balance the count of what he took in and what he spent. Abu Musa then had a Christian scribe, and he was able to comply with Omar's demand.
    Umar liked what he saw and exclaimed, "This scribe is proficient. Would you read in the Masjid a letter that came to us from Ash-Sham?"
    Abu Musa said, `He cannot."
    Umar said, "Is he not pure?"
    Abu Musa said, "No, but he is Christian."
    Abu Musa said, "So `Umar admonished me and poked my thigh (with his finger), saying, `Drive him out (from Al-Madinah).'
    He then recited,
    يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ امَنُواْ لَا تَتَّخِذُواْ الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى أَوْلِيَاء

      Allah Most High says, “and He does not forbid you to deal kindly and justly with anyone who has not fought you for your faith or driven you out of your homes: God loves the just.” [60.8]
      Dealing kindly (al-birr) is expansiveness in doing the good; thus it isn’t simply dealing with them with excellence, it is being expansive in the good you show them. The Muslim should be an exemplar in his character and dealings, calling to Allah by his words and states, upholding the way of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) when he said, “I was only sent to perfect noble character.”
      This verse was revealed with respect to Asma’ bint Abi Bakr when her mother was coming to visit. It is related that Asma’ bint Abi Bakr said, “My mother came to me during the time of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, while she was still an idolater and I asked the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, ‘My mother has come to me, and she is still averse [to Islam]. Shall I give it to her as kin?’ He answered, ‘Yes. Give to your mother.’”

      You didn't really pay attention did you? Auliah(أَوْلِيَآءُ) dosent mean allie in a platonic maner or in a general understanding of friendship. The word (أَوْلِيَآءُ) has a lot of meanings such as Gaurdians ,Protectors....Frankly none of them convery such a meaning of "friendship" in a social , general or platonic way.
      Besides Verses 57 and 58 of that same chapter clarify "among those" who make a mockery of faith are forbidden to be allied with
      O believers! Do not seek the guardianship of those given the Scripture before you and the disbelievers who have made your faith a mockery and amusement. And be mindful of Allah if you are ˹truly˺ believers.(verse 57)
      When you call to prayer, they mock it in amusement. This is because they are a people without understanding.(verse 58)
      So the verses are actually more specific about "who to not be allies with" rather than excluding all of them generally.This was elaborated in another surah which by itself refutes that narrative of not taking non-muslims as friends
      Allah does not forbid you from dealing kindly and fairly with those who have neither fought nor driven you out of your homes. Surely Allah loves those who are fair.(quran 60.8)
      Allah only forbids you from befriending those who have fought you for ˹your˺ faith, driven you out of your homes, or supported ˹others˺ in doing so. And whoever takes them as friends, then it is they who are the ˹true˺ wrongdoers.(quran 60.9)
      So in a summary God does not forbid us to take freinds or allies among non-muslims if they have done nothing wrong to us.

      Brother, merely sharing stories with someone you believe is trustworthy isn't haram. However, the issue is when you begin taking him as close friends. Even today it's not entirely clear for us what is the wisdom behind such a ruling, but we do not need to know the wisdom behind it in order to put it into practice.
      So I think it's better for you to distance yourself from him, without completely severing ties with him/her. Because once you have taken him/her as close friends, then you would've done something impermissible. Try calling him/her to Islam in a way you find appropriate. Try to find other Muslim friends. I'm assuming you're living in the West. I can feel you, since I'm living there too. It can be hard at times, but if you endure and obey Allah then you will have an immense reward in sha Allah. May Allah help me and you and ease it upon us. And Allah knows best.
