بَلِ ٱللَّهُ مَوْلَىٰكُمْ ۖ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ ٱلنَّٰصِرِينَ
But Allah is your protector, and He is the best of helpers.

Tafsir
Ibn Kathīr (abridged)
The Prohibition of Obeying the Disbelievers; the Cause of Defeat at Uhud
Allah warns His believing servants against obeying the disbelievers and hypocrites, because such obedience leads to utter destruction in this life and the Hereafter. This is why Allah said,
إِن تُطِيعُواْ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يَرُدُّوكُمْ عَلَى أَعْقَـبِكُمْ فَتَنقَلِبُواْ خَـسِرِينَ
(If you obey those who disbelieve, they will send you back on your heels, and you will turn back (from faith) as losers) 3:149.
Allah also commands the believers to obey Him, take Him as their protector, seek His aid and trust in Him. Allah said,
بَلِ اللَّهُ مَوْلَـكُمْ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ النَّـصِرِينَ
