8ثُمَّ لَتُسأَلُنَّ يَومَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعيمِAli UnalAnd on that Day, you will most surely be questioned as to all the favors (bestowed on you).1/2That is, there are certain duties concerning all the worldly things bestowed on you. You should not be proud because of them and their abundance. Rather, you should thank God because He has given them to you; earn and spend your wealth lawfully, doing so primarily with the intention of using it in God’s cause; and bring up your children as good believers.This sūrah has a similar meaning to verse 57: 20: Know that the present, worldly life is but a play, vain talk and ostentation, and mutual boasting among you, and competing in wealth and children – it is like when rain comes down and the vegetation grown by it pleases the farmers, (but) then it dries up and you see it turn yellow, then it becomes straw; and in the Hereafter, there is a severe punishment, but also (there is) forgiveness from God and His good pleasure (which are everlasting), whereas the present, worldly life is but a transient enjoyment of delusion.
