The Meaning of Allah’s Saying: “Indeed, you cannot guide whom you love”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the meaning of Allah’s saying:
Indeed, [O Muhammad], you do not guide whom you likeإِنَّكَ لَا تَهْدِي مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ
[Al-Qasas 28:56]
Does this imply that a caller to Allah is sufficient if he merely conveys the message without pressing the matter, so as not to fall under this verse?

Answer:
The caller presses. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) pressed 'Umar in the context of his knowledge; he repeated the call to him. That is, he presses, he does not press.
