15. RICHES AND CHILDREN ARE TESTS

COMPILATION INDEX

3:14 Made seem fair for humans is attraction to each other
and desire for children
and heaped up fortunes of gold and silver
and branded horses and livestock
and crops.
That is the provision of the life of this world
but With God is the Best Of Returns.

3:178 And do not let disbelievers think the indulgences of good fortunes leading to success, power, fame, money, real estate, children, livestock, etc. that We grant to them are good for them.
We only indulge them that they might increase in sin!
And then they will have a Humiliating Punishment.

8:28 And be cognizant that your wealth and your children are only tests and that With God Is the Tremendous Reward.

9:24 Say:
If your fathers
and your sons
and your brethren
and your wives
and your kindred
and the wealth you have acquired
and trade wherein you fear a decline
and dwellings with which you are pleased
are dearer to you than God and His Messenger and striving in His Way
then wait until God Brings His Command.
God guides not the wantonly disobedient people.

9:85 Yea and do not let their wealth or children impress thee for God Only Uses such to Distract them in this world so that they will die in lowly states as the fools they are.

9:88 But the messenger and those who believe with him strive with their wealth and their lives
and these have the Good things.
Yea these are the Successful!

9:111 All while God Has exchanged the lives and wealth of the believers
for that the Garden is theirs
because they fight for the Cause Of God
the best of them killing and being killed.
This promise is binding upon Him in the Torah i.e. Exodus 32:13-23 the Gospel Rev 14:13 and the Quran here, 2:243, 3:195, 4:100 & 22:58 and who fulfills a promise better than God?
Rejoice then in your bargain that you have contracted with Him!
For in that is the Tremendous Achievement.

18:46 Wealth and children are an adornment of the life of this world
but Righteous deeds that endure and hold better Rewards in the Sight Of thy Lord
are better for hope. Only a clear conscious allows for this hope.

34:34-37 And We sent no Warner to any city where its opulent ones did not say:
We are deniers of that wherewith you have been sent.
And they said: We are greater in wealth and children
and we are not among anyone to be punished.
My Lord Expands and Restricts His Provision for whom He Wills but most do not understand. that the expansions are either extremely hard to pass tests or proofs of passing!
And neither your wealth nor your children will bring you near to Us
only the believers and workers of Righteousness.
Yea they have the Double Reward for what they did
they will be secure in High Places!

44:25-29 How many fine gardens and springs they left
and great crops and noble stations
and prosperity in which they found joy.
But We gave it as inheritance to the Israelites.
And the Heavens and the Earth did not weep for them
as Egyptians later claimed nor will they be granted respite.

58:17 Their wealth and their children
will avail them nothing against God.
These are companions of the Fire
wherein they will abide Eternally.

60:11 And retaliate against disbelievers who take your wives!
Run them down and take everything they have then give to the ones who lost their wives their amount due.
And be in Wise Fear of God in Whom you are believers.

63:9 O you who believe do not let your wealth or your children divert you from the Remembrance of God because those who do that these are the losers.

64:15 Your wealth and your children are only Tests From God
but with Him is the Immense Reward.

68:10-18 Neither align with any despised false swearer of oaths
or the backbiters going about with slander
nor the hinderer of Good
nor the transgressor
or one who deceives
relentless and ignoble
because they have wealth and authority and children.
When Our verses are recited they say:
These are but legends of former peoples.
We will permanently brand them with darkened faces as those who frown Forever!
We will try them as We tried the owners of the garden when they swore to pluck its fruit in the morning and
left no allowance for other souls. of animals and people

69:27-29 Yea if only the first death had been my end!
Now my wealth does not avail me
and gone from me is all security and authority!

89:17-25 Nay! Consider that only men dishonor the orphan
and do not encourage one another to feed the needy
but consume the inheritance greedily
and love wealth with immense cherishment.
Nay indeed! And when the Earth is leveled like sand
is when thy Lord Will Come with His Angels
rank upon rank.
Hell is brought about that Day
the Day mankind will remember these teachings.
But of what use will remembering then serve?
They will say: If only I had sent forth of Goodness for this my Eternal Life to come!
For none can make suffer as He Will Make the fools suffer on that Day.

92:8-21 But as for the miserly and rich
who refuse to do Good
We will ease them towards the Fall
and their wealth will not rescue them from it.
Truly all Guidance is upon Us
and to Us belong the first
and the last.
So I warn you of the Raging Fire
in which the wicked burn
those who denied the Proofs and turned away.
But the devout will be Led Straight.
And one who gives of their wealth to purify themselves
gives freely without seeking rewards nor thanks
rather only seeking the Countenance Of their Lord, The Most High.
Yea one who does that will be glad!

111:1-5 Ruined were the hands of Mohamets’ disbelieving and hateful uncle Abu Lahab in his end.
His wealth did not avail him
nor what self gratification he earned. in whatever Good deeds done
He will burn in the Fire of Flame
and his wife as the bearer of firewood for it
around her neck a rope of twisted strands.
