The Holy Quran 102:8 — Surah At-Takathur

Arabic text

ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ

Translation

Thereafter, (after you have seen the reality of the Aakhirah) on that day (of Qiyaamah) you will definitely be questioned about the bounties (the luxuries and talents Allaah has given you. You will be asked how you used them and whether you expressed gratitude for them) (A Hadith states that on the Day of Qiyaamah, man will be brought forward like a lamb. He will then be presented before Allaah, Who will ask, "Did I not grant you wealth and bounties? What did you do with these?" He will reply, "I accumulated it and multiplied it until it flourished. Then I left it all behind. Allow me to return and bring it all before you." Allaah will say, "Show Me what you had sent ahead here [to the Aakhirah as good deeds]." He will again reply, "I accumulated my wealth and multiplied it until it flourished. Then I left it all behind. Allow me to return and bring it all before you." When it is then seen that he had not performed any good deeds on earth, he will be flung into Jahannam.)
