﴿ وَهُمْ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْهُ وَيَنْـَٔوْنَ عَنْهُ ۖ وَإِن يُهْلِكُونَ إِلَّآ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَمَا يَشْعُرُونَ ﴾

“And they bar others therefrom. and go far away from it: but they destroy none but themselves, and perceive it not.”

And to people they forbid it the following of the Prophet s and keep away from it and so they do not believe in him it is said that this was revealed regarding Abū Tālib who used to forbid people from hurting him but did not himself believe in him; and it is only themselves they destroy when they keep away from him because the harm thereof will befall them but they do not perceive this.
