So Remind
فَذَكِّرۡ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرࣱ ٢١
Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
So remind; you are only a reminder.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, if they still do not look and reflect, remind them and advise them; but be content with that and do not force them further.
Reflect
Today, gently remind someone, then leave the rest to them.
