ذِكْرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا ظَٰلِمِينَ
As a reminder; and never have We been unjust.

Then whoever wills will remember it.
وَلَقَدْ أَهْلَكْنَآ أَشْيَاعَكُمْ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ
And We have already destroyed your kinds, so is there any who will remember?
وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.
