What reason did Hera kill her son?

The simplest answer is jealousy. There was a time when Zeus declared that the next child born of his blood would rule Mykenai. He intended it to be Heracles. Hera put a lot of time and effort into trying to kill both Alcmene (Heracles mortal mother) and the infant, but when she failed she tormented Heracles until he went mad, killing his own children. Heracles was then forced to complete the 12 labours, with Hera opposing him at every turn.

Who were the friends of Hercules the Greek god?

Actually, his Greek name is Heracles, Hercules is Roman. Heracles means "glory of Hera". Zeus named him this in honor of Hera to pacify her because she became extremely angry when she learned that Zeus cheated on her. Even so, Hera drove Heracles into mad rages, causing him to kill his wife and children. He was not known to have many friends as he had killed his family previously so many people stood their distance.
