Transliteration:( Innal lazeena laa yarjoona liqaaa'anaa wa radoo bilhayaatid dunyaa watma' annoo bihaa wallazeena hum 'an Aayaatinaa ghaafiloon )
"Without doubt, those who have no hope to meet Us and are well pleased [24] with this worldly life and are satisfied with it, and those who are neglectful of Our signs [25]."

They view the world as a place to settle and find comfort, rather than a temporary abode where they are meant to prepare for the eternal life hereafter.
