Adornments

Whatever you have been given is only the enjoyment of this worldly life and its adornment. But what is with Allah is better and everlasting. Will you not understand?

28:60And whatsoever ye have been given is a comfort of the life of the world and an ornament thereof; and that which Allah hath is better and more lasting. Have ye then no sense?

Do not turn your eyes away from them, desiring the splendour of worldly life.

18:28Restrain thyself along with those who cry unto their Lord at morn and evening, seeking His Countenance; and let not thine eyes overlook them, desiring the pomp of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance, who followeth his own lust and whose case hath been abandoned.

Know that this worldly life is but play, amusement, adornment, boasting among yourselves, and rivalry in wealth and children. This life is nothing but a fleeting illusion.

57:20Know that the life of the world is only play, and idle talk, and pageantry, and boasting among you, and rivalry in respect of wealth and children; as the likeness of vegetation after rain, whereof the growth is pleasing to the husbandman, but afterward it drieth up and thou seest it turning yellow, then it becometh straw. And in the Hereafter there is grievous punishment, and (also) forgiveness from Allah and His good pleasure, whereas the life of the world is but matter of illusion.

Wealth and children are adornments of this life, but lasting good deeds are better in reward and hope.

18:46Wealth and children are an ornament of the life of the world. But the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better in respect of hope.

Those who desire this worldly life and its glitter, We will fully reward them here, and they will not be deprived.

11:15Whoso desireth the life of the world and its pomp, We shall repay them their deeds herein, and therein they will not be wronged.
