➋ { اَىِٕنْ ذُكِّرْتُمْ :} The answer to this condition is omitted, meaning, if you are given advice and well-wishing, do you, instead of being grateful, declare us to be unlucky and threaten us?
➌ {بَلْ اَنْتُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّسْرِفُوْنَ :} Rather, the truth is that you are people who exceed all bounds. You do not accept any restriction that comes from Allah or is imposed by reason and wisdom, if it goes against your desires.

[20] That is, the real reason for your misfortune is not what you have assumed. Rather, the real reason is that previously no warner had come to you. Therefore, you were excused by Allah. Now, if We have conveyed Allah’s message to you and you have turned away from it and become arrogant, then as a consequence you are receiving this punishment from Allah, and this is the misfortune of your own deeds; it has not come from outside.
[21] That is, your way of thinking has become so corrupted that those who are your well-wishers and guide you towards the straight path, you threaten to kill them or cause them harm. And if you suffer any pain due to disobedience to Allah, you hold us responsible for it. Be just! You have crossed all limits of reason and humanity.
