كالذين من قبلكم كانوا اشد منكم قوة واكثر اموالا واولادا فاستمتعوا بخلاقهم فاستمتعتم بخلاقكم كما استمتع الذين من قبلكم بخلاقهم وخضتم كالذي خاضوا اولئك حبطت اعمالهم في الدنيا والاخرة واولئك هم الخاسرون

As in the case of those Before you: they were Mightier than you in power, And more flourishing in wealth And children. They had Their enjoyment of their portion: And ye have of yours, as did Those before you; and ye Indulge in idle talk As they did. They!— Their works are fruitless In this world and in the Hereafter, And they will lose (All spiritual good).
