An-Noor 24:63

Read the whole surah

لَّا تَجۡعَلُواْ دُعَآءَ ٱلرَّسُولِ بَيۡنَكُمۡ كَدُعَآءِ بَعۡضِكُم بَعۡضٗاۚ قَدۡ يَعۡلَمُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَسَلَّلُونَ مِنكُمۡ لِوَاذٗاۚ فَلۡيَحۡذَرِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُخَالِفُونَ عَنۡ أَمۡرِهِۦٓ أَن تُصِيبَهُمۡ فِتۡنَةٌ أَوۡ يُصِيبَهُمۡ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

Rowwad Translation Center

Do not consider the Messenger’s summons to you as your summons to one another[1]. Allah surely knows those of you who slip away hiding behind others. So let those who disobey his command beware lest some trial[2] may afflict them or they may be afflicted with a painful punishment.

Notes

[1] i.e., Do not take his summons lightly, as you do with one another’s. Or it means: Do not address him by his name, ‘O Muhammad,’ as you address one another; rather, say, ‘O Messenger of Allah.’ [2] i.e., deviation of the heart into disbelief, hypocrisy, or heresy, or some worldly affliction such as affliction, strife, dissension, etc.
