9So give counsel to people. Explain to them that the way to truth, justice, peace, and happiness is to live an Allah-centered life. Surely those who do not want to be left in a wretched state on the Day of Reckoning will heed this counsel and will certainly benefit from it. Whether people benefit from the counsel or not, keep on conveying the message through the Quran. As for the arrogant and stubborn people who do not listen to you even though you have set out the truth with all its proofs, do not get into fruitless arguments with them. Instead, keep on conveying the message without growing weary, until you reach the pure hearts that will give ear to this call!
