Apparent Worldly Success (9:55 – 9:59)

Apparent Worldly Success

9:55 Do not be impressed by their money, or their children.   GOD   causes these to be sources of retribution for them in this life, and   (when they die)   their souls depart while they are disbelievers.

9:56 They swear by GOD that they belong with you, while they do not belong with you; they are divisive people.

9:57 If they could find a refuge, or caves, or a hiding place, they would go to it, rushing.

9:58 Some of them criticize your distribution of the charities; if they are given therefrom, they become satisfied, but if they are not given therefrom, they become objectors.
