Surah “Rivalry in World Increase, Competition, Worldly Gain”

as rendered by Al-muntakhab fi tafsir al-Qur‘an al-Karim — 8 verses

Multiplicity of the good things in life between wealth, conveniences and progeny divert your attention
Until the graves become your house of detention
There and then will you come to know all that is in conformity with truth and verity
But indeed you will come to know what is in accordance with fact and reality
No, but if only you knew the reality of what awaits those whose actions and dispositions do not accord with the divine standard, you would not succumb to illusions
For you will see the Hell fire awaiting the unjust who failed to reason their own conclusions
And you will see it with the eye of certainty
There and then shall you be asked of how you used the fruits of the years you received to your comfort and to your enjoyment and content, and how you exercised your faculties divine with which Allah had endowed you and to what extent
