The Light - 24:33 And those who do not have the means to marry, let them be chaste until Allah enriches them with His bounty. And those captives who wish to obtain a certificate of freedom through marriage - if their intentions are honest - let them go free. And give them out of what Allah has given you. Do not force your daughters who wish to be chaste into prostitution for the temporary benefits of this world. Whoever compels them, then Allah takes into account their compulsion; He is Forgiving, Merciful.
The transitory life of this world:
The Iron/57:20 Know that the life of this world is but play, amusement, adornment, boasting among yourselves, and a race to multiply money and children. It is like the rain that makes a plant grow which the disbelievers like. But then the plant withers and turns yellow and becomes rubbish. In the Hereafter there is a severe punishment from Allah and forgiveness and contentment. The life of this world is but a temporary pleasure that deceives.
Prophet Jonah/10:23 And when He rescues them, they begin to transgress in the earth unjustly. O people, your excesses are against yourselves. You are fond of the transient pleasures of this world´s life, but to Us is your return, and We will inform you of all that you do.
The Bee/16:95 Do not sell your pledge to Allah cheaply. Better for you is that which is with Allah, if you only knew.
The Bee/16:96 What is with you will last but what is with Allah will last forever. We shall certainly give the reward of those who persevere against hardship in accordance with their good deeds.
The Women/4:94 "Believers, be careful when you go out to fight in the way of Allah. Do not say to anyone who offers you peace, "You do not believe,"for the temporary benefit of this world´s life. For with Allah is much booty. You were like them before, but Allah has favored you. So search well and be sure. Allah is All-Knowing of what you do."
The Family Of Imran/3:14 Pleasures such as women, children, heaps of gold and silver, trained horses, cattle and crops seem attractive to people. These are the blessings of the life of this world. But the best destination is with Allah.
The Family Of Imran/3:185 Everyone will taste death. On the Day of Resurrection your rewards will be given to you in full. And whoever is rescued from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he is victorious. The life of this world is but a deceitful pleasure.
The Spoils of War/8:67 It is not befitting any prophet to take captives in the earth without fighting. You seek the temporal goods of this world, but Allah desires (for you) the Hereafter. Allah is Superior, Wise.
The Repentance/9:38 "O you who believe, what has happened to you that when you were told, "Take action in the way of Allah,"you fell to the ground? Are you content with the life of this world instead of the Hereafter? The blessings of the life of this world are little compared to the life of the Hereafter."
Prophet Jonah/10:24 The life of this world is like this example: the water We send down from the sky mixes with the plants that people and animals eat. This lasts until the earth is adorned and its inhabitants think that they have dominion over nature. Then Our command comes to it by night or by day. We make it uproot itself as if it had not possessed anything the day before. Thus do We explain the verses for a people who reflect.
The Thunder/13:26 Allah increases or decreases provision for whom He wills. They rejoice in the life of this world, while the life of this world is but a subsistence compared to the Hereafter.
The Night Journey/17:18 Whoever desires this transitory world, We give therein as much as We will to whom We will. Then We will condemn him to Hell, condemned and dismissed.
The Cave/18:45 Give them as an example of the life of this world the plant of the earth, which is nourished by the water We send down from the sky and then turns to rubbish blown away by the wind. Allah is all-powerful.
The Light/24:33 And those who do not have the means to marry, let them be chaste until Allah enriches them with His bounty. And those captives who wish to obtain a certificate of freedom through marriage - if their intentions are honest - let them go free. And give them out of what Allah has given you. Do not force your daughters who wish to be chaste into prostitution for the temporary benefits of this world. Whoever compels them, then Allah takes into account their compulsion; He is Forgiving, Merciful.
The Stories/28:60 All that is given to you is the wealth and ornaments of this world´s life. Better and lasting is that which is with Allah. Do you not understand?
The Spider/29:64 The life of this world is nothing but amusement and play. And the abode of the Hereafter is the true life, if only they knew.
The Forgiver/40:39 O my people, the life of this world is a temporary livelihood. The abode of the Hereafter is an everlasting abode.
The Ornaments of Gold/43:35 And many ostentatious materials. All this is the temporary material of this worldly life. But the Hereafter is for the righteous in the Presence of your Lord.
Muhammad/47:36 The life of this world is but play and amusement. If you believe and act righteously, He will give you your rewards. He does not ask you for your money.
The Resurrection/75:20 But you love the transient.
The Resurrection/75:21 And you do not care for the Hereafter.
