You should avoid disobeying the commands of Allah and His messenger.

The Various Meanings of "Dhikr":
In verse number 10, "Dhikr" refers to the Noble Quran, and this word has been used in this meaning multiple times in the Quran. For example, Allah says: ﴿اِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَاِنَّا لَهٗ لَحٰفِظُوْنَ﴾ meaning, "Indeed, We have sent down this Quran, and indeed, We are its Guardian." It should be clear that the literal meaning of "Dhikr" is reminder and admonition. That is, this Quran reminds man of the Covenant of Alast, and also of the teachings of previous messengers. And if "Dhikr" is taken in its broader meaning, it refers to all the revelation that was sent down to you, and which presents the explanation and interpretation of the Quran itself. That is, Allah has not only taken the responsibility of protecting the words of the Quran, but also the responsibility of protecting its correct explanation and interpretation. By this, every false doctrine can be tested.
