الأَمْر بِالْمَعْرُوف وَالنَّهْي عَن الْمُنْكَر
This verse invites us to reflect on our responsibility towards wrongdoings.
كَانُواْ لَا يَتَنَاهَوۡنَ عَن مُّنكَرٖ فَعَلُوهُۚ لَبِئۡسَ مَا كَانُواْ يَفۡعَلُونَ
They used not to prevent one another from wrongdoing that they did. How wretched was that which they were doing.
Quran, Al-Ma'ida 5:79
This verse describes a blameworthy behavior of a past people: they did not dissuade one another from committing blameworthy acts. The verse condemns their attitude, highlighting the importance of mutual advice and reminding each other to avoid evil. In our daily lives, we may witness injustices or bad habits. This verse encourages us to react with wisdom and kindness, reminding our loved ones of what is good, without judgment or harshness.
Today, if you see someone doing a blameworthy action, remind them gently to do good.
