Transliteration:( Wa zukhrufaa; wa in kullu zaalika lammaa mataa'ul hayaatid dunyaa; wal aakhiratu 'inda Rabbika lilmuttaqeen (section 3) )
58. In the eyes of Allah Almighty the glitter of this world is less honourable than the wings of the mosquito. Thus a contemptible thing is given to a contemptible people. From this we learn that despite the disobedience and infidelity, giving wealth for the infidels is Divine punishment for them and having it makes a person negligent and sinful.
59. The gold and silver and other worldly materials are nothing but transitory support of this world.
60. This tells us that the Hereafter is far superior to the world, and that the Hereafter will be given to the pious only, whether he is directly pious or is a follower of the pious e.g the minor children of the believers, who will go to Paradise as followers of their parents, though they themselves have not performed any deeds. Or sinners like us who if Allah wills, would be forgiven through the intercession of the Holy Prophet.
