The Holy Quran 34:35 — Surah Saba

Arabic text

وَقَالُوا۟ نَحْنُ أَكْثَرُ أَمْوَٰلًا وَأَوْلَـٰدًا وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُعَذَّبِينَ

Translation

They (the affluent) said, "We possess more wealth and more children than you (so how can you expect us to follow you?). We can never (ever) be punished (because Allaah loves us, as seen by the many favours with which He has blessed us)."

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

وقالوا: نحن أكثر منكم أموالا وأولادًا، والله لم يعطنا هذه النعم إلا لرضاه عنا، وما نحن بمعذَّبين في الدنيا ولا في الآخرة.
