The theme / Summary of the Surah Al-Takāthur 

This surah teaches us that there is no sin in becoming wealthy or acquiring wealth, but the surah warns against those who get distracted by the wealth creation game and chase it.

Lessons learned from the Surah Al-Takāthur 

1. Trying over-hard to amass worldly comforts distracts one from striving for the Hereafter.

2. If we were to truly acknowledge the reality of death and the Hereafter, we would not be distracted from striving to better it for ourselves.

3. Reality will definitely strike once we are made to see Jahannam.

4. We will be asked about our gratitude (or lack of it) for every blessing given to us by Allāh. May Allāh make us all from among His grateful servants. Āmīn.
