What is the profound interpretation of the verse: "Should We then withhold the Reminder from you, even if you are a transgressing people?"
"ضرب عنه" means to abandon or turn away from something. "الذكر" (dhikr) can refer to the Qur'an, remembrance/admonition, or punishment.
Based on the first meaning of "ضرب" (to strike/present), the interpretation would be: "Should We then withhold the Qur'an / admonition / punishment from you?"
Based on the second meaning (to turn away/remove), the interpretation would be: "Should We then remove the Qur'an / admonition / punishment from you?"
