Best Answer

It depends on the Muslim and it depends on the Jew. The requirement from Q: 5:51 is that Muslims not take Jews or Christians as protectors (auliyaa - أولياء), not that Muslims refrain from befriending Jews or Christians. This issue has arisen because of mistranslations. However, there is a large amount Jew-hatred among Muslims and an increasing amount of Muslim-hatred among Jews, making such friendships more difficult, but if both parties are willing to put aside bigoted feelings, they are perfectly capable of being friends.
