29:64
وما هاذه الحياة الدنيا الا لهو ولعب وان الدار الاخرة لهي الحيوان لو كانوا يعلمون ٦٤
وَمَا هَـٰذِهِ ٱلْحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنْيَآ إِلَّا لَهْوٌۭ وَلَعِبٌۭ ۚ وَإِنَّ ٱلدَّارَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةَ لَهِىَ ٱلْحَيَوَانُ ۚ لَوْ كَانُوا۟ يَعْلَمُونَ ٦٤
وَمَا
هَٰذِهِ
ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ
ٱلدُّنۡيَآ
إِلَّا
لَهۡوٞ
وَلَعِبٞۚ
وَإِنَّ
ٱلدَّارَ
ٱلۡأٓخِرَةَ
لَهِيَ
ٱلۡحَيَوَانُۚ
لَوۡ
كَانُواْ
يَعۡلَمُونَ

This worldly life is no more than play and amusement. But the Hereafter is indeed the real life, if only they knew.

If they happen to be aboard a ship ˹caught in a storm˺, they cry out to Allah ˹alone˺ in sincere devotion. But as soon as He delivers them ˹safely˺ to shore, they associate ˹others with Him once again˺.
