إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلذِّكْرَ وَخَشِىَ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنَ بِٱلْغَيْبِ ۖ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ وَأَجْرٍ كَرِيمٍ

"You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward."

بس آپ تو صرف ایسے شخص کو ڈرا سکتے ہیں جو نصیحت پر چلے اور رحمٰن سے بےدیکھے ڈرے، سو آپ اس کو مغفرت اور باوقار اجر کی خوش خبریاں سنا دیجیئے.

Explanation

If a man’s neck is encircled by chains, his head will stay raised and he will not be able to see anything below. This is the picture of those proud individuals who are so engrossed in self-aggrandisement that they are unable to see any reality beyond themselves. Such people never admit the Truth. It is very important for a man to be inclined to admit the Truth in order to avail of guidance; he should always be conscious and fearful of having to appear before God; he should never settle for anything less than the whole and absolute Truth. People who are so inclined towards the Truth as soon as it appears, consequently receive the greatest reward from God.
