The Most High - 87:16
But you choose the life of this world.
Comparison of the life of this world and the Hereafter:
The Most High/87:17
But the Hereafter is better and lasting.
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 Most High/87:16
But you choose the life of this world.
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."
The Women/4:77
"Have you not paid attention to those who were told, "Keep your hands off the war, observe the prayer and pay the zakat"? When they were commanded to fight, they began to fear mankind as they feared Allah, perhaps more, and they said, "Our Lord, why have you burdened us with war, could you not have postponed it until a near time?"Say, "This world is but a little, and the Hereafter is better for the righteous, and you will not be wronged in the slightest."
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 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 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 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.
Prophet Hud/11:108
And those who deserve happiness will abide in Paradise as long as the heavens and the earth endure. Except if your Lord wills. This is an uninterrupted reward.
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.
