Surah 102
Striving for More
Al-Takathur 💰
This powerful critique warns that the endless human obsession with collecting wealth, status, and material things distracts people from what really matters until they finally end up in the grave. The title comes from the very first verse, which declares: Striving for more distracts you.
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
1Striving for more distracts you
2Until you go into your graves.
3No indeed! You will come to know.
4No indeed! In the end you will come to know.
5No indeed! If only you knew for certain.
6You will most definitely see Hellfire,
7You will see it with the eye of certainty.
8On that Day, you will be asked about your pleasures.
