Al-Baqarah 2:96 ولتجدنهم احرص الناس على حياة ومن الذين اشركوا يود احدهم لو يعمر الف سنة وما هو بمزحزحه من العذاب ان يعمر والله بصير بما يعملون ٩٦

وَلَتَجِدَنَّهُمۡ
أَحۡرَصَ
ٱلنَّاسِ
عَلَىٰ
حَيَوٰةٖ

بِمُزَحۡزِحِهِۦ
مِنَ
ٱلۡعَذَابِ
أَن

وَٱللَّهُ
بَصِيرُۢ
بِمَا
يَعۡمَلُونَ

Chapter 2, Page 15, Juz 1

94. Say: “If the Last Abode near Allah is purely for you, to the exclusion of all people, then make a wish for death, if you are true.” 95. But they will never wish for it because of what their hands have sent ahead. Allah is All-Aware of the unjust. 96. You shall surely find them the more avid, for life than all other men - even more than the polytheists. Every one of them would love that his life is prolonged for one thousand years. But it will not take him away from punishment that his life is (so) prolonged, and Allah is watchful of what they do.
