The benefit from the saying of Allah the Exalted: "Upon you is your own selves"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What do we benefit from the noble verse
O you who have believed, upon you is [responsibility for] yourselvesيَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا عَلَيْكُمْ أَنفُسَكُمْ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:105]
?

Answer:
We benefit from it that a person does not be lax because people are lax, nor does he disobey because people disobey, imitating them. Rather, he takes hold of himself and obliges himself to obey Allah, even if he sees people doing otherwise. He does not imitate them, but rather he obliges, he obliges himself to obey Allah.
Those who have gone astray will not harm youلَا يَضُرُّكُم مَّن ضَلَّ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:105]
You must avoid the forbidden and avoid sins, even if many people fall into them. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
