وَإِذْ قَالَتْ أُمَّةٌۭ مِّنْهُمْ لِمَ تَعِظُونَ قَوْمًا ۙ ٱللَّهُ مُهْلِكُهُمْ أَوْ مُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًۭا شَدِيدًۭا ۖ قَالُوا۟ مَعْذِرَةً إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمْ وَلَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُونَ ﴿164﴾
Wa iz qaalat ummatum minhum lima ta'izoona qaw manil laahu muhlikuhum aw mu'azzibuhum 'azaaban shadeedan qaaloo ma'ziratan ilaa Rabbikum wa la'allahum tattaqoon
7:164. And when a community among them said, "Why do you advise [or warn] a people whom Allah is [about] to destroy or to punish with a severe punishment?" they [the advisors] said, "To be absolved before your Lord and perhaps they may fear Him."
اور جب ان میں سے ایک جماعت نے کہا کہ تم ایسے لوگوں کو کیوں نصیحت کرتے ہو جن کو الله ہلاک کرنے والا یا سخت عذاب دینے والا ہے تو انہوں نے کہا اس لیے کہ تمہارے پروردگار کے سامنے معذرت کرسکیں اور عجب نہیں کہ وہ پرہیزگاری اختیار کریں
