Quran 43:35 — Az-Zukhruf, verse 35
M. A. S. Abdel Haleem · selected translation
and golden ornaments. All of these are mere enjoyments of this life; your Lord reserves the next life for those who take heed of Him.
وَزُخْرُفًا ۚ وَإِنْ كُلُّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمَّا مَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ۚ وَالْآخِرَةُ عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
wazukh'rufan wa-in kullu dhālika lammā matāʿu l-ḥayati l-dun'yā wal-ākhiratu ʿinda rabbika lil'muttaqīna

- and ornaments; surely all this is but the enjoyment of the present life, and the world to come with thy Lord is for the godfearing.
- Muhammad Asad
- and gold [beyond count]. Yet all this would have been nothing but a [brief] enjoyment of life in this world - whereas [happiness in] the life to come awaits the God-conscious with thy Sustainer.
- Sahih International
- And gold ornament. But all that is not but the enjoyment of worldly life. And the Hereafter with your Lord is for the righteous.
