وَلَا
تُعْجِبْكَ
أَمْوَالُهُمْ
وَأَوْلَادُهُمْ
إِنَّمَا
يُرِيدُ
اللَّهُ
أَن
يُعَذِّبَهُم
بِهَا
فِي
الدُّنْيَا
وَتَزْهَقَ
أَنفُسُهُمْ
وَهُمْ
كَافِرُونَ
wa-lā tuʿjibka ʾamwāluhum wa-ʾawlāduhum ʾinnamā yurīdu llāhu ʾan yuʿadhdhibahum bihā fī d-dunyā wa-tazhaqa ʾanfusuhum wa-hum kāfirūna
Nor let their wealth nor their (following in) sons dazzle thee: Allah's plan is to punish them with these things in this world, and that their souls may perish in their (very) denial of Allah.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Let not their possessions or their children impress you. Allah only desires to punish them with these in this world, and that their souls may depart while they are faithless.
