(Ayah 2) {قُمْ فَاَنْذِرْ :} In this verse and the following verses, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was commanded to begin the call (to Islam). At the beginning of Surah Al-‘Alaq, you were commanded to recite the revelation that was sent down to you; now, according to the commands of the revelation, you are commanded to admonish and warn the people, and to adopt those qualities that are necessary for a caller (to Allah). The first of these is to abandon laziness and heedlessness, to gird oneself with determination, and to warn those who worship other than Allah of the bad consequences of their actions.

Arise and warn (the people of the bad consequences) [2],

[2] At the very beginning of this surah, you ﷺ are being made aware of your responsibility: that now is not the time for sleep, but rather, inform those who, having forgotten Allah, are lost in the slumber of heedlessness, that they must present themselves before their Lord to answer for their deeds. Therefore, in order to save themselves from a bad end, they should obey the commands of Allah and His Messenger.
