At-Tawbah 9:69 كالذين من قبلكم كانوا اشد منكم قوة واكثر اموالا واولادا فاستمتعوا بخلاقهم فاستمتعتم بخلاقكم كما استمتع الذين من قبلكم بخلاقهم وخضتم كالذي خاضوا اولايك حبطت اعمالهم في الدنيا والاخرة واولايك هم الخاسرون ٦٩

كَٱلَّذِينَ
مِن
قَبۡلِكُمۡ
كَانُوٓاْ
أَشَدَّ
مِنكُمۡ
قُوَّةٗ
وَأَكۡثَرَ
أَمۡوَٰلٗا
وَأَوۡلَٰدٗا

بِخَلَٰقِهِمۡ
فَٱسۡتَمۡتَعۡتُم
بِخَلَٰقِكُمۡ
كَمَا
ٱسۡتَمۡتَعَ
ٱلَّذِينَ
مِن
قَبۡلِكُم
بِخَلَٰقِهِمۡ
وَخُضۡتُمۡ
كَٱلَّذِي
خَاضُوٓاْۚ
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ

‘You are like those who lived before you: they were even stronger than you, with more wealth and children; they enjoyed their share in this life as you have enjoyed yours; like them, you have indulged in idle talk.’ Their deeds go to waste in this world and the next; it is they who will lose all in the life to come.

Chapter 9, Page 198, Juz 10

67. The hypocrites, both men and women, are all the same: they order what is wrong and forbid what is right; they are tight-fisted. They have ignored God, so He has ignored them. The hypocrites are the disobedient ones. 68. God promises the Fire of Hell as a permanent home for the hypocrites, both men and women, and the disbelievers: this is enough for them. God rejects them and a lasting punishment awaits them. 69. ‘You are like those who lived before you: they were even stronger than you, with more wealth and children; they enjoyed their share in this life as you have enjoyed yours; like them, you have indulged in idle talk.’ Their deeds go to waste in this world and the next; it is they who will lose all in the life to come. 70. Have they never heard the stories about their predecessors, the peoples of Noah, Ad, Thamud, Abraham, Midian, and the ruined cities? Their messengers came to them with clear evidence of the truth: God would not deceive them; they deceived themselves.

- M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
