وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَا فِى هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانِ لِيَذَّكَّرُوا وَمَا يَزِيدُهُمْ إِلَّا نُفُورًا

And We have certainly diversified [the contents] in this Qur'an that mankind may be reminded, but it does not increase the disbelievers except in aversion.

Tafsir of this Ayah Ibn Kathir

And surely, We have explained in this Qur'an that they may take heed, but it increases them in naught save aversion.) Allah say (41)

وَلَقَدْ صَرَّفْنَا فِي هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنِ

(And surely, We have explained in this Qur'an) meaning, 'We have explained Our warnings so that they may remember the proof, evidence and exhortations contained therein, and be prevented from Shirk, wrong-doing and scandal.'

وَمَا يَزِيدُهُمْ

(but it increases them in naught) the wrong-doers among them

إِلَّا نُفُورًا

(save aversion.) aversion towards the truth; they go further away from it.
