Translation
Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an, or are there locks upon [their] hearts?
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
Will these people who turn away not ponder over the Qur’ān and reflect over what is in it? If they pondered over it, it will guide them to every good and will distance them from every evil. Or are there locks on the hearts of these people that are tightly closed, so that no advice reaches them and no reminder benefits them?
