Tafsir
Scholars offer complementary perspectives
Say to them Follow what has been revealed to you from your Lord namely the Qur’ān and do not follow do not take beside Him namely God in other words other than Him any patrons obeying them in disobedience of Him exalted be He. Little do you remember read tadhakkarūn or yadhakkarūn ‘little are you or they admonished’; the original tā’ of tatadhakkarūn has been assimilated with the dhāl; a variant reading has tadhkurūn; the mā of qalīlan mā ‘little’ is extra merely emphasising the ‘littleness’.
