O you who believe fear God fear His chastisement by being obedient to Him and seek the means to Him that obedience which brings you closer to Him and struggle in His way in order to elevate His religion; so that you might prosper triumph.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(O ye who believe!) in Muhammad and the Qur'an (Be mindful of your duty to Allah) regarding that which He has commanded you, (and seek the way of approach unto Him) seek the highest rank; it is also said that this means: seek with Him high degrees through righteous works, (and strive in His way) in His obedience (in order that ye may succeed) so that you escape His wrath and torment and so that you attain to faith.
