Benefits and Issues:
The point is that a believer is intelligent and perceptive in every matter, whether religious or worldly. He is not heedless such that he would be deceived repeatedly in the same matter. When he commits a sin, he remains restless like a person who has been bitten, and he does not turn again towards that path.
