Aya 69
69
كَالَّذينَ مِن قَبلِكُم كانوا أَشَدَّ مِنكُم قُوَّةً وَأَكثَرَ أَموالًا وَأَولادًا فَاستَمتَعوا بِخَلاقِهِم فَاستَمتَعتُم بِخَلاقِكُم كَمَا استَمتَعَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِكُم بِخَلاقِهِم وَخُضتُم كَالَّذي خاضوا ۚ أُولٰئِكَ حَبِطَت أَعمالُهُم فِي الدُّنيا وَالآخِرَةِ ۖ وَأُولٰئِكَ هُمُ الخاسِرونَ

Syed V. Ahamed

Like the case of those before you, they were stronger than you (the hypocrites and disbelievers) in power, and richer in wealth and children. They had their enjoyment of their portion: And you have of yours, like those before you; And you get into idle talk as they did. They, their works are useless (both) in this world and in the Hereafter, and they will lose (everything good).
