54. 1. That is, We have used every method in the Qur'an to make the path of truth clear to mankind: admonition, advice, parables, incidents, and arguments. Moreover, these have been stated repeatedly and in various styles. But since man is extremely argumentative, neither admonition and advice affect him, nor are arguments and counsel effective for him.
