Commentary
'Or he remembers' means that remembrance occurs from him for something that is a cause for his purification and remembrance. Even if that is from him in the least ways that take him out of disbelief, for certainly no good is to be belittled. The cause for his purification and remembrance is His saying: 'So it will benefit him,' meaning after his remembrance, and its cause is 'the reminder.' In this, there is an indication that the turning away was for the purification and remembrance of others. The reading of the accusative is as it is a response to 'perhaps.'
